Svadilfari

Svadilfari was a stallion and helped a giant to build a fortress for the gods.

As payment the giant wanted Freyja as his wife and the sun and the moon. The Aesir agreed, the only condition was, that he had to finish his work until six month. When the walls of Asgard were more or less finished, Loki transformed himself into a mare and seduced the stallion. In this way the giant doesn't finished his work in six months.

(Loki went pregnant and bore Sleipnir.)
