In Norse mythology , Brimir is another name for the J tunn giant Ymir and also the name of a hall for the souls of the virtuous following the end time endtime conflict of Ragnarok . In the Gylfaginning section of the Prose Edda Brimir refers to a hall in the heavens for good souls following Ragnarok where plenty of good drink will be available for those who take pleasure in it. In stanza 9 of V lusp , the first poem of the Poetic Edda , Brimir and Ymir Blain are both mentioned as alternate names for Ymir Then all the Powers went to the thrones of fate, the sacrosanct sir gods , and considered this who should form the lord of the Norse dwarves dwarfs out of Brimir s blood and from Blain s limbs? Larrington trans. Quoted by Snorri Sturluson Snorri in Gylfaginning , he expands upon this and tells us that the dwarves were created from the dead flesh of Ymir whose body was used by Odin and his brothers to form the earth Brimir s blood referring to the sea and Blain s limbs referring to the mountains that were made from his bones . Stanza 37 of the same poem mentions Brimir as the name of a giant who may or may not be Ymir as the owner of a beer hall To the north there stood on Nidavellir Dark of moon Plains a hall of gold of the lineage of Sindri mythology Sindri and another stood on Okolnir Never cooled Plain , the beer hall of the giant who is called Brimir. Larrington trans. Snorri used this stanza as his basis for Brimir as a hall in the afterlife in Gylfaginning but whether or not the two residences are identical is uncertain.

In Norse mythology , M tsognir Old Norse battle roarer ref The prefix M t means battle , the affix sognir means roarer ref is the father of the Norse dwarves Dwarves , and resides in Nidavellir Old Norse dark fields . Origin M tsognir is the creation of Odin and his brothers, Vili and V , who fashioned him out of Ymir s blood and bones in the form of a maggot . These sir later gave him a roughly humanoid appearance and a human like intelligence, which the rest of the dvergar later inherited. This interpretation of the origin of the dvergar is given in Snorri Sturluson s Prose Edda Gylfaginning 14 , and is quite disputed.

In Norse mythology , liv gar Ice Waves are rivers that existed in Ginnungagap at the beginning of the world. The Prose Edda relates The streams called Ice waves, those which were so long come from the fountain heads that the yeasty venom upon them had hardened like the slag that runs out of the fire, these then became ice and when the ice halted and ceased to run, then it froze over above. But the drizzling rain that rose from the venom congealed to Rime frost rime , and the rime increased, frost over frost, each over the other, even into Ginnungagap, the Yawning Void. Gylfaginning 5, http northvegr.org lore prose 017020.php Brodeur s translation The eleven rivers traditionally associated with the liv gar include the Sv l, Gunnthr , Fj rm, Fimbulthul, Sl d, Hr d, Sylgr, Ylgr, V d, Leiptr and Gj ll which flows closest to the gate of Hel realm Hel and is spanned by the bridge Gjallarbr , although many other additional rivers are mentioned by name in both Eddas. The liv gar also figure in the origin of Ymir , the first J tunn giant . According to Vafthr dnism l , Ymir was formed from the poison that dripped from the rivers. In Gylfaginning , Snorri Sturluson Sturluson expands upon this notion considerably. As quoted above, when the venomous yeast from the liv gar froze to ice and overspread its banks it fell as rain through the mild air of Ginnungagap. The rime, infused with the cold of Niflheim from which the liv gar find their source in the wellspring Hvergelmir , began to fill the void. It then combined with the life giving fire and heat of Muspelheim , melting and dripping and giving form to Ymir, progenitor of the rime giants or frost giants. Elsewhere in Gylfaginning it is stated that so many serpents are in Hvergelmir with N dh gg that no tongue can tell them . These serpents are presumably the source of the venom or poison referred to in the myth.

V lusp hin skamma , V lusp the Less or the Short V lusp , is an Old Norse poem which survives as a handful of stanzas in Hyndlulj , in the Poetic Edda , and as one stanza in the Gylfaginning section of Snorri Sturluson s Prose Edda . The name of the poem is only known due to Snorri s citation of it in Gylfaginning chapter 5 ... ok var s nefndr Ymir, en hr m ursar kalla hann Aurgelmi, ok eru a an komnar ttir hr m ursa, sv sem segir V lusp inni sk mmu 7.

In his translation of Hyndlulj , Henry Adams Bellows comments that the preserved fragment of V lusp hin skamma shows that it was a late and very inferior imitation of the great V lusp Voluspo , and he dates it to the twelfth century. He further suggests that its appearance in Hyndlulj is due to the blunder of a copyist who confused the two poems, and he does not consider them to be of any great value either as poetry or as mythology.
