It's Nordics and Adventure. You do the Adventure stuff, and then Link Summon Gullveig. Fateful will chain block Gullveig and Gullveig will then banish the free cards Fateful gives you. In return you get Gryphon negate, and also Svalinn, a mass omninegate you can use every turn.
I'm running 3 Fateful now because that card on its own gives me Rite, Dracoback, and itself for Gullveig to banish. That way the engine is still intact if I open Fateful and Gryphon, also if I draw into Rite on another turn I can still put Adv Token and Gryphon on the field, at the cost of sending 1 card in GY (as I'd already have banished Dracoback). Hippo Carnival is obsolete.
To cope with the loss of Halq -> Locusts -> Baronne play; I am instead running Lyna -> Selene -> Accesscode. Gullveig is Light and she sits on the field often, clogging your your Link Arrows, so Lyna becomes really useful in that regard. After Lyna you can make Selene and revive Alviss, Veiler, Enchantress or a Synchro Summoned Loki, then make Accesscode. Accesscode will have 5300 ATK, but will only get to destroy once unless you banish Accesscode itself too.
So with this I can go for a second-turn OTK (a TTK if you will) with either sheer Aesir beatdown, Dreadnought for game, or Accesscode gaming. The deck can still OTK if it goes second vs a dead board with any 1 Nordic and 1 Rite; these two cards will give you up to 8800 damage and a bounce.
