Biography
Long ago, in the primordial void known as Ginnungagap, there was only fire and ice as well as the primordial cow Adumbla. Soon fire and ice collided and created the giant called Ymir. Ymir nourished themselves by drinking the milk from Adumbla's utters while she licked the salt from the ice. Soon she had licked away enough ice that two gods could come out, those being Borr and Bestla. Borr and Bestla could later on have two sons Vili, Ve, and Odin. The three had befriended Ymir but longed to make the universe. Knowing this, Ymir let the three brothers kill them and make the universe from their flesh. The three brothers begrudgingly did this and began crafted realms from Ymir's body. Other creatures like nokkens, huldras, trolls, ogres, and giants birthed from their corpse as well.

The three brothers created the other gods as well from Ymir's flesh as the three Norns began to grow the World Tree.
