Lore[ | ]
Eftur forma Níu Reika, Guðar hidur Sæd Yggdrasil í ala Miðgarðr, riska þörstegja Heim Trei ein dagur vigkemir.
(After shaping the Nine Realms, the Gods hid Seeds from Yggdrasil throughout Miðgarð, fearing the destruction of the World Tree would one day render them vulnerable.)
Humar dorpur byrja bilga um heliga Sæd, takag deira makt ó skyda vaxtur fyru viel vetur.
(Human villages began to settle around these sacred Seeds, drawing from their power and protecting them as they grew for many winters to come.)
Mer hemlag nóg läng hidur... När Yggdrasil vaxa veik, gät mili Reika földa ó fienda Asgarðr inslöst.
(But this secret did not stay buried for long... As Yggdrasil grew weaker, the veil between Realms waned and the enemies of Asgarð prepared for invasion.)
Ein eftur ein, Sæd falla när Miðgarðr brennir i reyði, byrja endir ala luvið när saga försaga.
(One by one, the Seeds fell as Miðgarð was consumed by their resentment, setting in motion the end of all things as foretold by legend.)
Kalla bi Guðar, sterk hertja Valhöll nuna kemdu baka heim fyru eindöst slöst, saman. Ragnarök byrja.
(Summoned forth by the Gods, the brave heroes of Valhalla now return to their home to make one final stand, together. Ragnarök has begun.)
