    Odin · The Mead of Poetry

    Tonight: how poetry came into the worlds. Of Kvasir, the wisest being ever made, brewed from the breath of every god in Asgard. Of his murder by two clever dwarves who poured his blood into three vessels and hid them. Of Suttungr the giant, who took the vessels into a hollow mountain and set his daughter Gunnlǫð to guard them. And of Odin, who walked east in disguise as Bǫlverkr the worker, drilled into the mountain in the shape of a snake, drank the mead in three long draughts, and flew home as an eagle to give poetry to the gods and to men. A 3 hour sleep story for adults, drawn from Snorri's Prose Edda and the Hávamál. Old north narration, calm pacing, ambient music.
