Idun |
The Aesir ate the apples, in this way they could live till Ragnarok. Idun was a Vanir, but became an Asynjur when she married Bragi. Once, the giant Thjalzi kidnapped Idun and the Aesir grew old. But finally, Loki could rescue her, when he changed himself into a hawk. He flew with her, back to Asgard, where the gods waited for them. When Thjalzi came, in the form of an eagle, the Aesir made a fire, he couldn't fly no more and the gods killed him. Loki spake: I didn't found anything about her brother or his slayer.
