@Crazymagus13 Yggdrasil is the tree that connects Asgard and Midgard, I think. Ragnarok is the apocalypse. The Valkyrie collects the souls of fallen warriors and brings them to Valhalla to become Einherjars who would fight when Ragnarok comes. Odin is the leader of the gods in Asgard, pretty much like Mt. Olympus and Heaven while Midgard is Earth.

I gotta ask, I know valhalla is where the warriors go when they die if they die in battle I think valkry has something to do with recruiting them for the ragnarok. But what is. Explain Asgard and Midgard they are both cities right? can anyone explain the lore? I know the ragnarok is caused by loki being freed and there is some kind of ice giant that wants revenge. And odin sits atop a tree called the yggdrasil, but still a little amateur at the lore.

The Vanir are the "other" gods, though the exact nature of that otherness has been the subject of much debate. A widely accepted traditional view is that the Vanir represent the gods of a society the Germanic people conquered and assimilated.Just like they were assimilated in rome,ancient greece etc etc....yea i am talkin about ancient basques....why did viking sailors call basque sailors "the vanir"?? hmm

You are confused,thats understandable.

"The term Aryan has generally been used historically to denote the Indo-Iranians because Arya is the self designation of the Indo-Iranian languages and their speakers, viz. the Iranian and the Indo-Aryan peoples, collectively known as the Indo-Iranians."
