🐺 Fenris Wolf 🐺

This post is all about Norse mythology and Fenris/Fenrir wolf. Some people might believe in these gods and think that Odin and Thor and Loki are real. Some people dont believe in any of these things and thats O.k people are allowed to have there own beliefs BUT I'm going off topic, lets start with Fenris:

Fenris/Fenrir is a Wolf the size of a Medium size horse. He is the most infamous wolf of Norse Mythology. He is the son of Loki and the giantess AngrboΓ°a (don't know how to pronounce this) which makes him the brother of the Serpent Jormungand better know as the world serpent and the underworld goddess Hel
(also his uncle is THOR).

The Aesir Gods raised Fenris themselves in order to keep him from wreaking havoc in all of the nine worlds. He grew at an astonishingly fast pace however and eventually the troubled gods decided to chain him up.Their first two attempts were unsuccessful; while the cunning gods convinced Fenrir that it was only a game, a test of his strength, he broke through the fetters easily. For their third attempt, the gods had the dwarves forge the strongest chain ever built, which nevertheless gave the appearance of being very light and even soft to the touch. When the gods presented Fenrir with this third fetter, he became suspicious, and he refused to be bound with it unless one of the gods would stick his or her hand in his mouth as a pledge of good faith. Only Tyr was brave enough to do this, knowing that it would mean the loss of his hand. And, sure enough, when Fenrir found himself unable to break free of his bonds, he ripped Tyr’s hand from its arm. The chain was then tied to a boulder and a sword was placed in Fenrir’s jaws to hold them open. Thats the story of Fenris also Mythology says that on Ragnarok, Fenris breaks free and destroys all of the Nine Worlds but no big deal just a massive wolf destroying us all...hehe...
