What does Fenrir the wolf represent?
In Norse mythology, Fenrir was a wolf that became an enemy of the gods until they bound him in mystical chains (Gleipnir). Fenrir managed to escape his bonds and took revenge on Odin. Fenrir represents wild ferocity and determination.
What is Yggdrasil?
Yggdrasil in Norse mythology is the Norse tree of life, which encompasses all nine worlds that are part of the ancient Norse view of the cosmos. It is an ash tree in which all the worlds, including the world of humans and the world of the gods, live among the branches and roots.
What is Aegishjalmur?
