Chapter 97 The origin of the Nine Realms. The master of Norse mythology is the giant, the ancestor Ymir!

In the distant legends of Norse mythology, there is a poetic story sung by a bard.

At the beginning of the world, the giant Ymir was born, and there was no sand or ocean between heaven and earth.

The earth did not exist, there were no living creatures, and the sky was filled with dark chaos.

A chasm stretching across billions of miles, like a natural moat, lies deep in the chaos.

But then, the son of Baul caused the earth to rise,

Since then, the glorious Midgard was created.

The above poem story comes from an unknown female wizard who is proficient in divination.

……

Norse mythology is extremely unique from other mythologies.

That is, in the earliest records of Norse mythology, the first creature born was not a god... but a giant.

Her name is Ymir, and she is the ancestor of all creatures in Norse mythology, so some people also call her the first giant.

Like other myths in the universe, Norse mythology believes that before the birth of the world, no life existed, there was no sky or earth, no flowers, trees, birds or beasts, only endless emptiness and chaos.

And in this chaos, there is an abyss called the 'Jinlunga Chasm'.

In the abyss, there is no living thing, no life, no death.

But it is a pure land in the chaos, with boundaries. Before the birth of the world and all things, there was a vast area called 'Niflheim' in the far north.

This is a land of cold and darkness, a world of ice and snow.

When the world began to move and gradually came into being, Niflheim began to nurture water, which was called the source of all things.

Also in the Jinlunga Chasm, to its south, there is an area called 'Muspelheim'. In contrast to the extremely cold land of Niflheim in the north, Muspelheim is an extremely hot place.

It breeds flames and also symbolizes the original place where flames are born and the end point of all flames.

After who knows how many years, the water from Niflheim, the extremely cold land in the north, gradually began to merge with the fire from Muspelheim in the south.

Thus, water turned into flesh, and the blazing flames gave life, and the gigantic primordial giant Ymir was born.

After Ymir was born, she felt hungry and looked for food everywhere. She found Odumbra, a cow who was also born from the fusion of fire and water.

Four streams of milk flowed from the huge cow's body, forming four endless white rivers.

Ymir then fed on Odumbra's milk and gradually grew larger and stronger.

Finally, when Ymir fell into a deep sleep after drinking milk, sweat flowed from her armpits and two giants, a man and a woman, grew out.

Then, Ymir crossed her legs in her sleep and gave birth to another son.

From then on, there was a breath of life in the abyss.

"I witnessed your birth and your union!"

"You are the hope for the future of the world!"

Amid Ymir's sacred and solemn chanting, the two giants united in front of witnesses and gave birth to many giants.

This is the first tribe of giants.

They are the embodiment of natural forces and phenomena, representing the power of chaos and disorder, and possessing the power to create and destroy the world.

……

Meanwhile, inspired by Ymir, the cow Odumbra licked the ice and snow day and night, constantly searching for salt frost. One day, when it was licking some salt grains on the ice, some hair suddenly came out from under its tongue.

It remained unmoved and continued to lick the ice.

On the second day, a complete head appeared; on the third day, it licked out a living person; on the fourth day, the person opened his eyes and had life...

Thus, Buli, the ancestor of all gods, was born.

After Buri was born, he believed that the giants' blood was highly poisonous, their temperaments were too brutal, and their power was dangerous, so he chose to go to war with the giants.

"The giants are too brutal. They only release their power disorderly, which greatly destroys the existence of the world!"

"I must stop the giant!" A sense of mission surged in Bully's heart.

But Bully's power alone is not enough to defeat the giant.

So he created the gods.

……

Not long after, Buli gave birth to a tall and mighty child named Baoer.

He was then killed by Ymir in a battle with the Titans.

When Bor grew up, he abducted the giantess Bestla as his wife. Bestla was the daughter of the giant Borsong and one of the descendants of Ymir.

At the same time, she is also the mother of the gods.

Bor and Bestra got married and soon gave birth to three sons: Odin, Vili and Ve.

Under heaven and earth, there are no words that can describe how tall and strong they are. They are three great gods and will be the masters of all the worlds.

They grew stronger over time, eventually killing Ymir and ending the war with the Titans.

The surviving giants fled to the east, took on a new name, "Frost Giants", re-established the giant kingdom of Jotunheim, and vowed to be enemies of the gods forever.

"Odin!"

"Gods...you will never find peace!"

"In the name of the ancestor Ymir, we in Jotunheim will always watch over you, curse you, and witness your demise!"

In Jotunheim, countless frost giants roared and swore oaths in the cruel and cold environment.

……

On the other side, after killing Ymir, the three gods Odin, Willy and Ve were disgusted by the nothingness and chaos of the Kinlunga Chasm, and built a new world with Ymir's corpse.

They turned Ymir's blood into the sea. At the east and west ends of the sea were Jotunheim, the kingdom of the giants, and Vanaheim, the kingdom of the Vanir gods.

The gods made Ymir's torso float on the sea of ​​blood and become land, her bones became mountains, her hair became trees, her skull was placed on the ground and became the sky, her brain became clouds, her broken teeth became stones scattered everywhere, and her eyebrows were made into a solid wall that surrounded the entire earth to prevent the invasion of the frost giants.

Odin took out the flames from Muspelheim, the kingdom of fire, and created the sun, the moon, and the stars, bringing light to the world.

The gods created humans from trees and gave the earth to humans to live on. This is the human world Midgard.

The gods chose a sunny place in the sky to establish the kingdom of Asgard as their residence.

Many maggots grew on Ymir's body. These maggots were endowed with spirituality by the gods and turned into elves. The maggots on the side facing the light turned into light elves, and the maggots on the side facing away from the light turned into dark elves.

The gods loved the light elves very much, so they established the elven kingdom of Alfheim near Asgard for the elves to live in.
