Jörmungandr

I loved Ragnarok, but I wish we got more lore and information. Are Búri, Borr, Vili, Vé, Ægir, and the other unseen Gods still alive? What are their powers? What are they like? How long ago did the Aesir-Vanir War end and how long did it last? How far back in time did Jörmungandr arrive in? When did Odin, Vili, and Vé kill Ymir? Why didn’t their father and grandfather help them in fighting Ymir? What happened with future Jörmungandr after Ragnarok? I guess I’m pulling an Odin here. I just want to know more things, you know? Especially considering that there’s no Norse sequel. I hope they release DLC that explains things. Am I alone in all that?

How does Atreus + Angrboda = Jormungander?

In Norse mythology, Fenrir, Jörmungandr and Hel are the children of Loki and Angrboda and Sköll and Hati are their grandkids. In God of War Ragnarök However, it's saying that Atreus is the owner of Fenrir (who is the father of and Sköll and Hati) and the creator of Jörmungandr.

But what about Hel?

Hel was mentioned in one of the murals of GoW2018

there is a question that I ask myself about the afterlife in god of wars the first is that you have to believe in gods to which the afterlife is linked or you have to be born in the world created by the gods like the greek or midgard world

when kratos will defeat odin or prevent the ragnarock and he will be sent one way or another the world of the gods of egypt and atreus will remain on midgard accepting his role as loki one last thing so certain arises for more question about the universe of god of wars it seems to me that the creator of the game has confirmed that the earth is flat and has edges

God of war 4 or God of war 2018 is one of the most amazing video games that Santa Monica has brought us, leaving aside ancient Greece and entering Norse mythology, where Kratos and his son Atreus must make a trip to spread in Jotunheim the ashes of the late Faye.

However, as in any video game. God of War 2018 leaves us with some questions that fans still have about the lore of Norse mythology in the God of War universe.

1_ Why is Hræsvelg located in Helheim?

When Kratos goes to the dark and cold Helheim to search for the heart of the bridge to heal his son, we meet Hræsvelg, a giant eagle, who throughout the game does nothing but stay neutral in the face of all events.

However, the strange thing comes when we find out that this bird is in Helheim, since in Nordic mythology this being was at the top of Yggdrasil, whose function is to cause the wind to arrive in the 9 kingdoms.

Then... Why is Hræsvelg in Helheim? Has it always been there? Or was he exiled to that place?

2_ Why didn't Odin turn to the Norns?

During the game it is made clear to us that the leader of the Aesir, Odin, has a single purpose to stop Ragnarok.

To do so, he resorts to the extinction of the Jotnar, since they are part of Ragnarok and acquires more knowledge about what will happen at the end of the world.

However, there is no mention at any point in the game (either through Mimir or the murals) that the god seeks help from the Norns.

something strange, since they are in charge of writing the destiny of all living beings, including the gods.

This becomes even more strange considering the Norse mythology, where Odin had to go to them to know the runes, with this added it makes one wonder if Odin actually came to visit the sisters at least once or if he knows of them.

3_What does Thoth want?

In the fourth Fallen God comic we meet the god Thoth, an Egyptian god who embodies wisdom.

In the fourth chapter we can see that Athena has asked him for "help" so that Kratos can kill the beasts that plague an Egyptian village and during the other comics Thoth tries to convince Kratos

What does make us wonder is, for what purpose does he want Kratos? Since in an interview with Cory Barlog he said that Athena was not there, so this leaves us with more doubts about why the god appeared to Kratos.

4_ Is Fjörgyn really dead?

In the novel of God of war II we are left in revelation that Gaia is still alive after dying by Kratos, since the following is said "Gaia's physical form is not linked to her true ethereal form, which exists as an embodied spirit: the Earth itself, so he was able to communicate with Kratos and observe every moment of his life, even after the War of the Titans."

If it is true, that does not mean that Fjörgyn does not have the same abilities as Gaia, and that he is not actually dead, however we must bear in mind that we are not mentioned that Thor's mother is mother earth, so this is in doubt.

5_Why did Faye ask Kratos and Atreus to dump her ashes in Jotunheim?

In the 2018 game Kratos has only one goal to spread the ashes of his late second wife Faye on the highest mountain in the nine worlds.

Still, there are doubts as to why exactly Faye asked Kratos for this before she died, according to theories it is believed that she did this to revive the previously dead giants and start a war against the aesir, but the latter is left to personal interpretation.

6_ Why is Angrboda Egyptian?

In the trailer for god of war: Ragnarok we were introduced to Angrboda, the future wife of Atreus/loki

The weird thing is that she's Egyptian, and not to underestimate, but it's kind of weird that she's Egyptian.

During the last games it is made clear to us that traveling between mythologies is normal in a sense and in the other mythologies they are known by other names than their native lands, so the question arises.

Who is actually Angrboda? Was she previously a goddess like Kratos?

7_ What happened to Hel?

In God of war 2018 it is made clear to us that the children of Atreus traveled in time long before they were born, and during the game we were shown that there were Fenrir, Jormungadr, Sköoll and Hatty, but... and Hel?

Her fate is unclear, as we were given no clue that she was seen or that she traveled through time.

In the Ragnarok of mythology, his fate is not mentioned, so there is something ambiguous that happened to him

I must ask something if some Olympians are alive after the fall of the very mount, where will they be now?

What do you think when I show you this?

I saw in my first version of the theory that there are points in which I was wrong, so here I bring you this most updated version of my previous theory.

13.8 billion years:

In the beginning there was absolutely nothing, just an immense emptiness that had no end.

Until the primordial sister deities were born, Yhwh (or Yahweh) and his sister Chaos; who are they in the first two original gods that would give a great list of descendants

At some point in 13.7 billion years:

The two brothers will be given various gifts, including that of creation (the big bang), so taking advantage of that power they create the universe as we know it.

Before 4.6 million years:

From the Kingdom of Muspelheim and Niflheim is born Ymir the first Jotun

4.6 billion years:

At some point after the big bang Chaos and God create the earth, a flat world with edges

In the beginning of the earth this was a world made of lava and stone, after centuries the earth has a shape similar to the one we know. However, humans did not yet exist.Rather, the dinosaurs existed, until they were caught by the meteorite and the earth returned to its original state.

And after centuries and centuries the earth was restored to how it was after being formed

Between 140,000 and 290,000 years:

During that time Adam the first man was created and then Lilith (the first woman by the way)

However, due to god's machismo (sorry to say that, but it's true) she revealed herself and was exiled by God and Chaos; Lilith got pissed off and in revenge decided to do the same thing to Adam and his second wife Eva.

Lilith turned into a snake and tricked Adam and Eve into eating the forbidden fruit, and then God exiled them from Eden.

Later the two brothers (Chaos and God) decided to go their separate ways, leaving God alone in Heaven with no company

Between exile and before the great war:

God decides to create his wife, Asherah with whom to beget the angels and the seven main archangels.

Among them was Lucifer, who was very proud and envious alike and when he saw the humans he decided to rebel against God out of jealousy, ending up expelled and creating Hell and Purgatory; and being the predecessor of Pandora's box

Note: You can leave this two times to your interpretation, since sometimes the bible is somewhat contradictory.

35,000 years ago:

Chaos creates the Japanese Pantheon from which the Izanagi are born, (that from what I understand they lived in heaven or on another planet).

4000 B. C.

At that time the Mayans were born, being two brother gods who created humans, first with clay, then with wood and finally with corn.

3000 B. C.

During this point Chaos creates one of his two pantheons (the Greek).

Creating Gaia, the earth; then Gaia creates Uranus, Pontus, Tartarus, Nyx and Erebus.

1200 B. C.

Between these years more pantheons are created by themselves.

In Egypt a temple is created from which Ra is born, and in Scotland Eiocha is born who begets Cernunnos

I see that my previous post many saw it confused as to how the war of creation fits in God of war and the theory that I planetee of how the world was created.

Well it's kind of short, so here it is.

God and Chaos were the first gods in existence, for some time they had offspring (this can be interpreted with or without the intervention of one of the genders of course), but let's say that it was only Chaos that spawned Uranus, Ceto and Oreas.

Well, but the point is that in reality God and Chaos are not powerful enough to create the universe, they cannot create things of such magnitude; however... the only way to do it was effectively a war.

Therefore, God dedicated himself to sowing discord between Chaos and his children, thus leading to primordial war and the creation of the universe and the world.

Is someone gonna edit the profils to say 1/4 god since atreaus is part god

When was Jormungandr born? during Ragnarok or after Ragnarok?

I am confused because:

• Atreus was still a child when Baldur died and his death has already triggered the ragnarok.

• Mimir said that during the ragnarok, thor will fight serpent and strike him so hard that he will be sent back into a time where he wasn't even born. This is what Freya was talking about his sudden appearance in the lake. However, the serpent we saw in the game will survive till ragnarok and will fight Thor again and the whole scene repeats and he will end up in the past again, thus creating an endless loop. So, how are we explain Serpent's birth?

• Was it during the ragnarok when Atreus' wife gave birth to giant wolf , Hel and Serpent? Or did he survive until ragnarok ended and fathered them and sent them back into the past coz they had an important role in the ragnarok?

• Did thor survive the Ragnarok?

My questions sound stupid,But if u have thoughts comment it below, Thank You!

When after You carry an unconscious Atreus to Freya's Cave and while you're on the elevator leading to her entrance, You hear out the Horn, the very same horn you used to call out Jörmungandr! I'd love to see your assumptions regarding who has the highest possibility of having blown the Horn during that phase and please do back your assumptions with Theories, I absolutely love reading them.
