At the close of "Die Walküre," the second Opera in Richard Wagner's "Der Ring des Nibelungen," Wotan, the chief god, is forced to confront the consequences of his actions. He reluctantly places his daughter Brünnhilde in a deep sleep, surrounded by a protective ring of fire, as punishment for her defiance. The opera ends with Siegmund's death and Brünnhilde's vow to protect Sieglinde and her unborn child, setting the stage for the unfolding drama in the subsequent operas. The themes of love, sacrifice, and fate are poignantly encapsulated in this powerful conclusion.
