## Plot

After doing his normal ask questions then introduce a religion intro Jake Doubleyoo begins his introduction to Norse Mythology.

The universe started with an extremely hot place called Muspelheim, a cold place called Niflheim, and a bit of a nothing place in between called Ginnungagap. Eventually the hot place and cold place mixed together creating a being known as Ymir who sprouted a bunch of children out of himself called the Jotnar, suddenly a cow named Audhumbla showed up and licked a dude named Buri into existence. Buri then had a kid named Borr who had 3 more kids named Vili, Ve, and Odin, and when they grew up they decided the universe was boring and killed Ymir causing him to drop 6,585,000,000,000,000,000 tons of material which the 3 brothers used to build earth. The Jotnar however did not like that the 3 brothers had killed their father and openly expressed it but the 3 had made a castle with a large wall which with they used to ignore the Jotnar.

The 3 then made 2 people out of sticks which a random guy named Heimdall used to produce and entire population into existence. Odin was then placed in charge of everything and in true rule of everything fashioned Odin married 2 women named Frigg and Jord. He would have children from these women one named Bragi who liked music, Vidar who liked brutally avenging his relatives, and Thor who is charge of thunder and killing Jotnar which is his hobby. He also had a son named Buldur who everyone loved god, human, or otherwise, Buldur has nightmares/visions sometimes but surely nothing bad will come from them. Odin then decided he wanted to be smart and so traded his right eye to a guy named Mimir for some magic pool water, then after hanging himself on a tree and stabbing himself with a spear trying to learn the alphabet he became a genius who knew magical techniques.

Then Odin learned a bit to late not to make a deal with a guy named Loki because if he did, Loki and his children would bring about the end of the world. These children were Hel, Jormangund, and Fenrir which Odin and his family tracked down, Jormangund was just a snake who looked like he couldn't be threat and was promptly thrown into the ocean where he became giant and began to eat his own tail for eternity. Hel was put in Hell where she was put in charge of the bad dead people (those bad people being the weak and cowardly), while Odin had an afterlife for the good dead people (those being the strong and brave dead people who died in battle) called Valhalla. Tyr decided to raise Fenrir because he seemed to just be a regular puppy but he turned out to be like his brother Jormangund, so some dwarves made some rope called gleipnir using non-existent materials. Odin then asked Fenrir to put the rope on under the guise of a challenge but Fenrir was suspicious so they had Tyr put his hand in Fenrir's mouth due to him choosing to raise the young pup and since Fenrir couldn't break the rope Tyr's arm was bitten off which Odin made a joke out of.
