The Creation Of The World.
The world was created from the remains of the giant Ymir. The three brothers dragged the dead body of Ymir towards the center of Ginnungagap. This is the place where they created the world from the remains of Ymir.
The blood was transformed into oceans and water.
The flesh became the land.
The bones became the mountains.
The teeth made into rocks.
The hair became the grass and trees.
The eyelashes became Midgard.
They threw the brain up in the air and it became the clouds. The skull became the sky. It was the lid that covered the new world. The brothers grabbed some of the sparks shooting out from Muspelheim, the land of fire. They threw the sparks up toward the inside of the skull. These sparks gleamed at night and was what we call the stars. On the plains of Idavoll, they built Asgard, which would be the home of the gods. Very far away from Asgard, was were the Jotuns were allowed to live. While Odin and his brothers were in the progress of creating a new world from the body parts of Ymir, worms kept crawling out of the remains. The worms became dwarfs. The brothers told four of the dwarfs to hold up the sky. They did not want to risk the sky falling down. The names of the four dwarfs is Nordi (North), Vestri (West), Sundri (South), and Austri (East), and was sent out in each direction of the world. The other dwarfs made their homes in rocks and caves under the ground, which is called Nidavellir. The dwarfs became experts in craftsmanship, and have created some of the most powerful weapons, like Mjölnir, Thor's hammer.
