"This armor is not just a symbol for my status as a Valkyrie, but also a keepsake from my late sister. It is not something I can simply cast away, as it also the remnant of the only family that I had."
― Molly expressing her resolve as a Valkyrie

Molly McIntyre, also known with her Valkyrie identity Hjorthrimul, is the supporting character in Little Witch Academia: Witches of Midgard. She replaced Croix Meridies's position in the reformed Nine New Witches.

Personality and Character[]

The last member of McIntyre family alongside her older sister and sole parental figure Ragnhild aka. Hjorthrimul the Elemental Fury Valkyrie as of Golden Magic Age era, the introvert yet mild-mannered Molly aspired to become an accomplished witch and Valkyrie as much as the latter and wished to live a happy life at Luna Nova throughout her education there at the same time, yet it all seemed to be in the realm of impossibility because of her ineptitude in magic. To compound the issue, injuries Ragnhild sustained from her last battle forced her to retire prematurely and appoint Molly as her immediate successor since Hjorthrimul Armor was bonded to their bloodline via. a powerful blood seal which, according to some, supposedly impossible to break. In her desperation to improve her life and importantly, fulfill newfound expectations from being the next Elemental Fury Valkyrie, Molly turned to the immense Time Magic she stumbled upon in Horologium Chamber beneath the academy's library by chance only to realize it was not enough – her inability to tell anyone about the Chamber resulted the young witch to isolate herself from her peers, worsening her already miserable life despite her improvements. Wanting to start over, Molly recklessly attempted to use Horologium Chamber's Time Magic to go back in time only to be afflicted with Curse of Time and turned into a monster known as Ghost Witch in the process. Subsequently, Ragnhild, who was present during her rampage, reluctantly assisted Luna Nova professors at the time in stopping her corrupted little sister and separating her dark half into seven fragments as part of the procedure to free her from the curse. Without her dark half, Molly began to forget her identity and continue enrolled at Luna Nova for decades unknown to everybody until the curse was completely broken.

Things began to take a better turn for Molly during the first day of summer holiday 200 years later, as the magic seal which placed over Horologium Chamber to erode the curse which afflicted her was about to complete its task. For the same reason however, the seal's grip over her splintered dark halves started to weaken also. As the result, she fell under her corrupted persona's control once again and began manipulating Akko and co. to indirectly help her reclaiming fragments of her Ghost Witch half from behind the scenes. Once all but the final fragment had been in her possession, Molly attempted to convince Akko to help her claiming the last but was forced to flee and did so herself thanks to Ursula's timed arrival. By the time Akko and co. confronted her in the Time Void where the last fragment was hidden, they found themselves facing her in her newly restored corrupted form. In the ensuing battle, Akko, Lotte, and Sucy struck the transformed Molly down with Shiny Ballista, restoring her back to normal and seemingly destroyed Ghost Witch in her along with Curse of Time which plagued her for so long. Remorseful over her actions as Ghost Witch and believing she was still a danger to everyone, Molly pleaded to Ursula to seal her back, though she eventually got over it thanks to her saviors' reassurance.

Despite everything, there was one last matter for Molly to attend to; recalling on her older sister whose fate left uncertain while she still afflicted with Curse of Time, Molly had Ursula, who already discovered her identity as the long lost heir of Hjorthrimul and title sometime after the conclusion of Horologium Chamber incident, accompanied her home as she couldn't bear facing the truth by herself. When they did, Molly was greatly devastated upon learning that Ragnhild spent her final years searching for alternate means to free her from Curse of Time with aid of her colleagues from both Valkyrie Corps. and Thapoli to no avail, went so far stealing one of Horologium Clock's crystals right under Luna Nova's nose to do so and placed themselves within a Time Slip so their memories pertaining her won't be periodically reset like everyone else. What made the revelation even more tragic was not only Hjorthrimul Armor had been missing ever since, but Ragnhild, through her journal, expressed her remorse for pushing all her hopes and dreams to Molly without realizing what her little sister felt thus decided to take the responsibility for Ghost Witch's rampage back then. While mourning her apparent death, Molly discovered that Ragnhild also left behind some clues for her to follow in the same journal, leading them to a secret stash near the latter's grave.

Uncovering Hjorthrimul Bracelet among items stored within, Molly and Ursula soon encountered a ghost who was none other than Ragnhild herself, having attained enough magical power so she can freely return to the land of the living following her death not unlike Nine Olde Witches. During such heartfelt reunion, Ragnhild expressed her deepest apology to Molly for hardships she put her through just because of the latter's status as her only immediate successor, but Molly reassured that she had no hard feelings toward her for it. Before disappearing, Ragnhild revealed her success in breaking Hjorthrimul Armor's blood seal which in turn, allowed Molly to freely choose whether to pass it to another bloodline, having witnessed the harm the seal done to their family thus their happiness being what truly matter in the end. Realizing how much Ragnhild loved her and understood that she truly wanted the best for her from start, Molly elected to honor her late sister's wish by embracing the path of Valkyrie, marking the return of Elemental Fury Valkyrie after her two centuries of disappearance.

Relationships[]

  • Ragnhild McIntyre: Molly was very close to Ragnhild, looking up at her as both role model and parental figure after their parents' untimely passing. Unfortunately, the fear of letting her last living relative down became one of two reasons of her eventual meddling with Horologium Chamber's immense Time Magic and subsequent corruption into Ghost Witch, the other being the desire to improve both her magical talent and life at Luna Nova. Molly was devastated upon learning that she had outlived her beloved sister, more so the fact of Ragnhild had given up everything she had to save her. When the two eventually reunited decades later, Molly reassured to Ragnhild that she never blamed her for ordeals she had gone through, citing it was her own foolishness in messing with something she didn't understand that started it all.

Even so, she's more than eager to fight alongside her predecessor someday despite knowing the latter's notoriety for creating Noir Rod and uneventful history with Akko and Ursula.
  • Astriddotir Family: Since Molly had no living relative to return home to, it was decided that Astriddotirs, the Thapolian magical family whose one of Ragnhild's late colleagues happened to be member of, to take her in as one of their own with Newt and Brok acted as her legal guardian. Such decision was met with mixed reception from their daughter Eitria as their duties prevented them from spending much of their time with her at home, though she eventually changed her mind upon meeting Molly herself. The two bonded through their shared affinity for clockworks and Eitria's efforts in ensuring her adoptive little sister won't be lonely as much as she was. Although initially disturbed by her Eitria's bisexuality and nature as half-eldthur, Molly nevertheless grew over it and came to admire adoptive older sister in time.

Notes and Trivia[]

  • BSoulstone came up with the idea of Molly succeeding Croix in the reformed Nine New Witches in 2018 sometime after North American release of Little Witch Academia: Chamber of Time. Originally considering Newt for such position, he became intrigued with her after discovered her major role in the same game both as herself and her monstrous alter-ego Ghost Witch after her previous appearances as one of the franchise's minor characters, all while discussing with a fellow LWA fan and user from Little Witch Academia Wiki named Navid 1600 about how she looked like with a Valkyrie Armor, who suggested hers should be ghost-themed.
    • From that point, BSoulstone worked on expanding the character's past to fit into the fanfic series' storyline. The first version introduced Molly's last living relative in form of either her late aunt's grandson Wilhem or granddaughter Elizabeth "Liz" McIntyre as Hjorthrimul Armor's safekeepers following her disappearance. The next one revolved her stumbled upon the long-lost Hjorthrimul Armor during the summer vacation somewhere at Norway sometime after being released from Curse of Time and met the spirit of her predecessor named Ragnhild who taught her everything she knew. Navid 1600 expressed uncertainty whether Molly has a drive to take her newfound role in the latter scenario, prompting BSoulstone to use the former idea and revise it instead by establishing her and her predecessor Ragnhild as biological siblings and the lasts of McIntyre as in the final version.
