The Legend of the Northern Gods
The Creation of the World
In the beginning, there was only the void, known as Ginnungagap. Then the fire world Muspellheim and the icy world Niflheim were born, and soon they collided, creating a giant named Ymir, the first living being. Ymir's sweat became the first humans, and Odin, Vili, and Vé, three gods, killed Ymir to create the world from his body. From Ymir's flesh, they created the earth, from his bones, they created the mountains, and from his skull, they created the sky.
The Gods and their Realm
Asgard, the realm of the gods, is a great hall overseen by Odin, the chief god, and his wife Frigg. Odin has many sons, such as Thor, the god of thunder, and Loki, the trickster god. The gods also have their own world tree, known as Yggdrasil, which connects all the realms together. Under the tree, there is a well of wisdom, guarded by the giantess Mimir, who sees and hears everything. Also, there is a well of fate, where the three Norns weave the destiny of all beings.
The End of the World
According to prophecy, one day, the world will end. First, there will be three years of endless winter, followed by the Fimbulwinter, a time when the sun and moon disappear, and the stars fall from the sky. Then, a great war will break out between the gods and the giants, called Ragnarok. In this battle, many gods will die, and the evil forces will overwhelm the world. Finally, the fire giant Surtr will burn everything, including the world tree, and only two humans will survive to start a new world.版权声明:本文版权归原作者所有,转载文章仅为传播更多信息之目的,如作者信息标记有误,请第一时间联系我们修改或删除,多谢。
