Njord's wife was a fire giant by the name of Skade. She, unlike all the other fire giants (except Loki) was beautiful. Even though they loved each other, Skade and Njord could never stay together. She missed her mountainous home, while he could not bear to leave his rivers and lakes. So, they made a compromise. Once each year, they would go to visit each other. When Skade went to Njord's home in the oceans, the summer would begin. When Njord visited Skade in her mountains, winter would reign.
When Njord saw the war between the Changing Breed and the now-corrupted Wyrm, he knew he had to intervene. He chose those of the Changing Breed who lived most of their lived near or in his domain, as he wanted to know their hearts were of the high value he wanted them to be.
