The Norse Gods

The Norse gods, part of ancient Scandinavian mythology, are powerful beings with distinct roles. Odin, the wise ruler, seeks knowledge and wisdom. Thor, his son, is the thunder god known for strength and his hammer, Mjölnir. Freyja is a goddess associated with love and fertility, while Loki is a trickster god causing chaos. These gods inhabit Asgard and are central to stories explaining creation, heroism, and the cosmos's end (Ragnarök). Their myths reflect values like bravery, honor, and the acceptance of life's hardships.
