Norse myths
Asgard's ancient stories
Norse myths are the traditional stories of pre-Christian Scandinavian peoples, featuring gods like Odin, Thor, and Loki, and events like Ragnarök, the prophesied end of the world.
These narratives have experienced cultural revival through modern fantasy, comics, and film: The Marvel movies draw heavily on Norse myths.
