• Before the beginning of time, there was Ginnungagap a bottomless abyss, which separated the icy land of Niflheim and the fiery land of Muspelheim. These two realms rose in power and clashed; the burning frost turned into water drops and the water drops turned into life.
• The first living being was Ymir, a hermaphroditic giant who was created from those life-giving drops of water and whose death was brought about by Odin and his brothers. Odin, Vili, and Vä, Ymirá's descendants, fashioned the Nordic mythological universe from his blood, bones, flesh, teeth, hair, eyelashes, brains and skull.
• The Norse gods belong to two major clans: Æsir and Vanir. Odin, Frigg, Thor, Loki, Balder, Hod, Heimdall and Tyr are the most elevated representatives of Æsir and are known as the main gods. The second clan, Vanir, contains the fertility gods and count Njord, Freyr, and Freyja as their most notable members. Despite the antagonism between them, it was necessary for the two families to combine their powers and ideals for all to prosper.

He was the awe inspiring ruler of Asgard, and most revered immortal, who was on an unrelenting quest for knowledge with his two ravens, two wolves and the Valkyries. He is the god of war and, being delightfully paradoxical, the god of poetry and magic. He is famous for sacrificing one of his eyes in order to be able to see the cosmos more clearly and his thirst for wisdom saw him hang from the World Tree, Yggdrasil, for nine days and nine nights until he was blessed with the knowledge of the runic alphabet. His unyielding nature granted him the opportunity to unlock numerous mysteries of the universe.

h4 "(From Old High German Frija)"

Add a paragraph

• Odin's wife, Frigg, was a paragon of beauty, love, fertility and fate. She was the mighty queen of Asgard, a venerable Norse goddess, who was gifted with the power of divination, and yet, was surrounded by an air of secrecy. She was the only goddess allowed to sit next to her husband. Frigg was a very protective mother, so she took an oath from the elements, beasts, weapons and poisons, that they would not injure her brilliant and loving son, Balder. Her trust was betrayed by Loki, a most deceitful god.

• Hearing I ask | from the holy races,
  From Heimdall's sons, | both high and low;
  Thou wilt, Valfather, | that well I relate
  Old tales I remember | of men long ago.
• I remember yet | the giants of yore,
  Who gave me bread | in the days gone by;
  Nine worlds I knew, | the nine in the tree
  With mighty roots | beneath the mold.
• Of old was the age | when Ymir lived;
  Sea nor cool waves | nor sand there were;
  Earth had not been, | nor heaven above,
  But a yawning gap, | and grass nowhere.
• Then Bur's sons lifted | the level land,
  Mithgarth the mighty | there they made;
  The sun from the south | warmed the stones of earth,
  And green was the ground | with growing leeks.
• The sun, the sister | of the moon, from the south
  Her right hand cast | over heaven's rim;
  No knowledge she had | where her home should be,
  The moon knew not | what might was his,
  The stars knew not | where their stations were.

Section 3

Add id of "yggdrasil"

h3 "Yggdrasil"

p

Section 4

Add id of "asgard"

h3 "Asgard"

p

Section 7

Add id of "midgard"

h3 "Midgard"

p

• Midgard (Old Norse: Midgardr meaning "middle enclosure") is one of the Nine Realms of Norse mythology. It is the realm of humans (mortals) and is the only realm fully visible to mankind, though other realms intersect with it. Midgard is bordered by Niflheim to the north and Muspelheim to the south. It is surrounded by an ocean inhabited by the world-encircling Jörmungandr, often referred to as "Midgardsormr" or the "Midgard serpent". It is also connected to Asgard, the realm of the ádsir, by the Bifröst.

Section 8

Add id of "jotunheimr"

h3 "Jötunheimr"

p

• From Jötunheimr, the giants menace the humans in Midgard and the gods in Asgard. The river Ifing (Old Norse, áfingr) separates Asgard, the realm of the gods, from Jötunheimr, the land of giants. Gastropnir, the protection wall to the home of Menglad, and ärymheimr, home of äjazi, were both located in Jötunheimr, which was ruled by King Thrym. Gladsisvellir was a location in Jötunheimr, where lived the giant Gudmund, father of Höfund. Utgard was a stronghold surrounding the land of the giants.

Both the svartáilfar and Svartáilfaheimr are primarily attested in the Prose Edda, written in the 13th century by Snorri Sturluson. Scholars have noted that the svartáilfar appear to be synonymous with the dwarves and potentially also the dökköilfar ("dark elves"). As dwarfs, the home of the svartÃilfar could possibly be another description for Nidavellir (Nià avellir, "dark fields").

• The giantess old | in Ironwood sat,
  In the east, and bore | the brood of Fenrir;
  Among these one | in monster's guise
  Was soon to steal | the sun from the sky.
• There feeds he full | on the flesh of the dead,
  And the home of the gods | he reddens with gore;
  Dark grows the sun, | and in summer soon
  Come mighty storms: | would you know yet more?
• On a hill there sat, | and smote on his harp,
  Eggther the joyous, | the giants' warder;
  Above him the cock | in the bird-wood crowed,
  Fair and red | did Fjalar stand.
  Then to the gods | crowed Gollinkambi,
  He wakes the heroes | in Othin's hall;
  And beneath the earth | does another crow,
  The rust-red bird | at the bars of Hel.
• Now Garm howls loud | before Gnipahellir,
  The fetters will burst, | and the wolf run free;
  Much do I know, | and more can see
  Of the fate of the gods, | the mighty in fight.
• Brothers shall fight | and fell each other,
  And sisters' sons | shall kinship stain;
  Hard is it on earth, | with mighty whoredom;
  Axe-time, sword-time, | shields are sundered,
  Wind-time, wolf-time, | ere the world falls;
  Nor ever shall men | each other spare.
• Fast move the sons | of Mim, and fate
  Is heard in the note | of the Gjallarhorn;
  Loud blows Heimdall, | the horn is aloft,
  In fear quake all | who on Hel-roads are.
• Yggdrasil shakes, | and shiver on high
  The ancient limbs, | and the giant is loose;
  To the head of Mim | does Othin give heed,
  But the kinsman of Surt | shall slay him soon.
• How fare the gods? | how fare the elves?
  All Jotunheim groans, | the gods are at council;
  Loud roar the dwarfs | by the doors of stone,
  The masters of the rocks: | would you know yet more?
• Now Garm howls loud | before Gnipahellir,
  The fetters will burst, | and the wolf run free
  Much do I know, | and more can see
  Of the fate of the gods, | the mighty in fight.
• From the east comes Hrym | with shield held high;
  In giant-wrath | does the serpent writhe;
  O'er the waves he twists, | and the tawny eagle
  Gnaws corpses screaming; | Naglfar is loose.
• O'er the sea from the east | there sails a ship
  With the people of Muspell, | at the helm stands Loki;
  After the wolf | do wild men follow,
  And with them the brother | of Byleist goes.
• Surt fares from the south | with the scourge of branches,
  The sun of the battle-gods | shone from his sword;
  The crags are sundered, | the giant-women sink,
  The dead throng Hel-way, | and heaven is cloven.
• Now comes to Hlin | yet another hurt,
  When Othin fares | to fight with the wolf,
  And Beli's fair slayer | seeks out Surt,
  For there must fall | the joy of Frigg.
• Then comes Sigfather's | mighty son,
  Vithar, to fight | with the foaming wolf;
  In the giant's son | does he thrust his sword
  Full to the heart: | his father is avenged.
• Hither there comes | the son of Hlothyn,
  The bright snake gapes | to heaven above;
  . . . . . . . . . .
  Against the serpent | goes Othin's son.
• In anger smites | the warder of earth,--
  Forth from their homes | must all men flee;-
  Nine paces fares | the son of Fjorgyn,
  And, slain by the serpent, | fearless he sinks.
• The sun turns black, | earth sinks in the sea,
  The hot stars down | from heaven are whirled;
  Fierce grows the steam | and the life-feeding flame,
  Till fire leaps high | about heaven itself.
• Now Garm howls loud | before Gnipahellir,
  The fetters will burst, | and the wolf run free;
  Much do I know, | and more can see
  Of the fate of the gods, | the mighty in fight.

• Maiden, awake! | wake thee, my friend,
  My sister Hyndla, | in thy hollow cave!
  Already comes darkness, | and ride must we
  To Valhall to seek | the sacred hall.
• The favor of Heerfather | seek we to find,
  To his followers gold | he gladly gives;
  To Hermoth gave he | helm and mail-coat,
  And to Sigmund he gave | a sword as gift.
• Triumph to some, | and treasure to others,
  To many wisdom | and skill in words,
  Fair winds to the sailor, | to the singer his art,
  And a manly heart | to many a hero.
• Thor shall I honor, | and this shall I ask,
  That his favor true | mayst thou ever find;
  . . . . . . . . . .
  Though little the brides | of the giants he loves.
• From the stall now | one of thy wolves lead forth,
  And along with my boar | shalt thou let him run;
  For slow my boar goes | on the road of the gods,
  And I would not weary | my worthy steed.

Section 6

h3 "Valhalla"

p

• In Norse mythology, Valhalla ("hall of the slain") is a majestic, enormous hall located in Asgard, ruled over by the god Odin. Chosen by Odin, half of those who die in combat travel to Valhalla upon death, led by valkyries, while the other half go to the goddess Freyja's field Fölkvangr. In Valhalla, the dead warriors join the masses of those who have died in combat (known as the Einherjar) and various legendary Germanic heroes and kings, as they prepare to aid Odin during the events of Ragnarök. Before the hall stands the golden tree Glasir, and the hall's ceiling is thatched with golden shields. Various creatures live around Valhalla, such as the stag Eikpyrnir and the goat Heidrun, both described as standing atop Valhalla.
