Long years ago, before the evil days had dawned,
King Volsung ruled over all the land which lies between the sea and the country of the Goths
THE DAYS WERE GOLDEN
and the good Frey dropped peace and plenty everywhere, and men went in and out and feared no wrong. King Volsung had a dwelling in the midst of fertile fields and fruitful gardens.
Fairer than any dream was that dwelling. The roof was thatched with gold, and red turrets and towers rose above. The great feast-hall was long and high, and its walls were hung with sun-bright shields; and the door-nails were of silver.
In the middle of the hall stood the pride of the Volsungs,—a tree whose blossoms filled the air with fragrance, and whose green branches, thrusting themselves through the ceiling, covered the roof with fair foliage. It was Odin’s tree, and King Volsung had planted it there with his own hands.

Information
Nuances Serif is a very rich Serif family, with a highly expressive and resolutely modern design. Born from personal research on typographic design and aesthetic detail, Nuances Serif is a sharp serif font family with strong contrast and elegant curves. With a particular attention to the design of each glyph, this font family is meant to be used in large sizes. This expressive typeface is to be experienced, shown, read and seen through its elegant shapes, and its confident design. Nuances Serif can also be appreciated for its playfulness due to its glyph diversity and large character set. Ranging from Condensed Thin to Extended Black, this font family is available in 3 Widths and 8 Weights with matching Italics. The wide range of its styles (48) offers infinite possibilities for text layouts combining width, weights, contrasts and styles to create original and sophisticated graphic compositions. A proper adaptative and expressive typeface family, it's elegant appearance would be as adequate to a luxury brand as to a poster for movies, or even a packaging for grocery stores’ items. The technical and aesthetic constraints brought by the variable aspect of the font played a capital importance in the drawing. The curves and contrasts keep a constant unity throughout the width design space and become more and more generous as the font goes blacker. The thinner the design is, the more prominent the serifs are, and the blacker it is, the less present they are, allowing a tighter space. The typeface offers then a very different visual experience depending on the style used. From sharp and precise when used in Thin to a much richer and denser appearance when getting darker when used in Black. The drawing of the Italic styles was the perfect opportunity to join the main characteristics of the elegant roman design with a strong velocity feeling (slant angle) that would bring a powerful contrast in graphic creations, coupled with an expressive attitude.
