Birth of New Age Well, not all life ceases to exist. Okay, I was wrong about all the gods dying in the final battle. So I went overboard describing Ragnarök. Give me a break will you. With Ragnarök ended, new life began as the earth rose from the sea. The earth would be green and fertile. A new sun would rise and across the sky; the chariot would be driven by the daughter of Sol or Alfrodul ("Sun"). Not everything was destroyed after Ragnarok. The Gimle continued to exist. It was a place of plenty food and drink, and other pleasure can be found in Brimir, a hall of Gimle Vili (or Hoenir as he was often known by) and many of the younger gods who took part in the war had survived. Vidar and Vali, the two sons of Odin, had survived Ragnarok, as did the two sons of Thor, Modi and Magni, who would wield Mjollnir, their father's mighty hammer. None of the goddesses were mentioned in various accounts of Ragnarok, but there is assumption that Frigg, Freyja and the other goddesses had survived. Balder, the dead god of beauty, and his blind brother, Hod, will be reborn in the New Age. http://www.timelessmyths.com/norse/ragnarok.html Aug 17 06, 5:25 PM
