• The Story of the God Bestla Aug 10, 2025

  

  In the time when giants ruled the emerging world and gods were yet to be born, there lived among the frost-giants a daughter whose beauty was matched only by her wisdom. Her name was Bestla, and she was daughter to Bolthorn, a giant of great learning who knew the secrets of the wind and the language of the stones.

  Unlike many of her kin, who delighted in chaos and conflict, Bestla possessed a gentle heart and a mind that sought understanding rather than dominion. While other giants hurled boulders and roared challenges across the void, she would sit quietly listening to the songs that ice made when it cracked, or watching the patterns that frost painted on stone.
