Biography
Last Stand of Dead Men
The Brides are first mentioned by Dubhóg Ni Broin, a witch who Skulduggery and Valkyrie question about her involvement with the warlocks. She says that the Brides may have joined Charivari's cause, but she can't be sure.
Later, they are revealed to be working with Charivari. Skulduggery and Valkyrie travel to their headquarters to attempt to infiltrate it to free Fletcher. The plan goes wrong and Valkyrie is separated from the others. She flees but her conscience tells her to take a wrong turn which leads her into a room full of witches. They fire energy beams into her body. Dying, she pleads her inner self to save her. Later, Skulduggery enters the room where all the Witches have been murdered under her wrath.
