    Odin kidnapped children and set them to be chased by wolves for all eternity because of how their father named them.

    No hailing Oden, please. He’s a cunt.

        Mythology is crazy!

        I love the stories about Atalanta, and how it culminates in her and Hippomenes both being transformed into lions as punishment for shagging in a temple, because at the time people believed that lions couldn’t have offspring together.

        The story of Thor dressing up as and pretending to be Freyja in order to get his hammer back from some giants is also pretty sick.

        And Amaterasu forever shunning her brotherhusband for in disgust decapitating a lady who invited them to a party she was too lazy to go to.

        There’s so many quality stories out there.
