The Pact
Abuse victims, social deviants, individuals have struggled with hardship, and those who feel disconnected and discontent. These are those who could find others like them in the Pact. Started as a self-help group in the city of Atlanta, the Pact emphasizes not on empathy or softness. It derives its advice and guidance upon the idea of tough love. That the only way to change the world around them, is to change themselves. Though this method doesn't work for everyone, it does wonders for the beleivers.
Though not truly founded by Hildr, she has made an impact to help define the gathering. Enough that without truly realizing, the Pact has become a cult wrapped in the beliefs of the Crone herself. The emphasis of self-change and inner strength are founded within the ideology of the Valkyrie. Hildr, without being coddling or sensitive, plays as the Crone amongst the young...giving her advice on how to strengthen the soul, to toughen the heart, and to take the woes of the world to push yourself forward rather then letting it drag a person down like weights.
At current, the cult is only composed of eight members. Three are mothers who escaped abusive relationships, two others are former substance abusers, and the last are deviants who found unacceptance amongst those they had loved. Due to their roots, there are very few actual occult practices they have beyond invoking names of power as anchors to their resolve at time, occassional cutting, and sometimes being involved in ceremonies at an individual level with Hildr who has taken on the role of priestess without declaring herself as such
