Introduction to Norse Mythology

8/16/2011

Burning ice, biting flame; that is how life began.
In the South is a realm called Muspell. That region flickers with dancing flames. It seethes and it shines. No one can endure it except those born into it. Black Surt is there; he sits on the furthest reach of that land, brandishing a flaming sword; he is already waiting for the end when he will rise and savage the gods and whelm the whole world with fire.
--Kevin Crossley-holland
