## History

Nidhoggr Literally meaning Malice Striker in Old Norse, he lives beneath the roots of Yggdrasil in Nilfheim and continually gnaws at them as they are the only thing that keeps it from the world, tipping the balance of the world toward darkness.

Nidhoggr is the bitter rival of Hraesvelgr, the great eagle who lives at the top of the tree. The squirrel Ratatoskr acts as a go-between in their never-ending quarrel. Ratatoskr takes the messages of envy and hate they send to each other and exaggerates them, twisting their words into cruel taunts. It enjoys egging them on so much that they two will remain bitter enemies to the end. At Ragnarok, the end of the world, Nidhoggr and Hraesvelgr are fated to eat every one of the souls that die.
