Hello Everyone! Today I will continue to tell you about Norse mythology. I will tell you about my favorite gods from this mythology.    Ymir - in Norse mythology, the first living being, the great giant, who emerged from the warm water in the abyss of  Ginnungagap .

In the evenings when it got colder we sat together on the balcony, I often wrote letters or read and she looked into space.   Her sons often
