Himinbjorg

: "From here, I can see the Nine Realms and ten trillion souls."
: ―Heimdall
Himinbjorg is the place from where the Bifrost was generated and directed using the energy that ran through the Rainbow Bridge. It is located just outside Asgard, at the edge of the Sea of Asgard, and was connected to the Rainbow Bridge. From Himinbjorg, Heimdall commanded the Bifrost and looked over the Nine Realms and other regions of space. It was considered one of the most important places in all the Nine Realms.
== History ==
=== Bifrost Guardian ===
Built on the outside of Asgard, Odin appointed Heimdall, who was gifted with enhanced senses, as its keeper.
==== Battle of Jotunheim ====
Thor and his companions travelled to Himinbjorg in order to journey to Jotunheim, and later Odin banished Thor from Asgard from within Himinbjorg.
==== Loki's Deception ====
Heimdall opened the Bifrost for Thor's friends when they journeyed to Midgard to bring back Thor. When Loki became regent after Odin fell into the Odinsleep, Heimdall was relieved of his duties as gatekeeper and his Asgardian citizenship was revoked. Upon hearing this, Heimdall announced that he was no longer beholden to Loki's demands, and attacked him, although he was quickly imprisoned in ice by the Casket of Ancient Winters. Loki then travelled to Jotunheim and brought Laufey and two other Frost Giants to Asgard to assassinate Odin. The two Frost Giants were told to guard Himinbjorg and the frozen Heimdall. Hearing Thor's shouts to open the Bifrost, Heimdall managed to break free from the ice, slay the two Frost Giant sentries, and return Thor and his friends to Asgard. Loki then opened the Bifrost to destroy Jotunheim, but Thor fought him, and ended up breaking the Rainbow Bridge and Himinbjorg fell into the abyss of space. Loki then refused to accept his father's help and fell into the wormhole that the broken Himinbjorg formed with the Bifrost.
