芬里斯狼北欧外国神话故事中的双生兄弟
洛奇,算了吧,泰尔,你从不知道,
怎样在人类中制造和平;
自从芬里斯狼把你的右手,
齐臂吞掉,你已经变得多么无力。
泰尔,我失一臂,而你失一子,
恶狼带给你我同样的悲哀;
芬里斯狼将痛苦地被缚,
直到众神的末日来临。
——《洛奇的争辩》
亚萨园的洛奇娶有女巨人茜根为妻,而且生下了许多孩子。这些孩子无一例外地都是巨人,同茜根一起住在约特海姆的乡村里。由于茜根生性善良,对洛奇也十分忠诚,所以她的孩子虽为巨人,却大都还算本份,老老实实地过着普通巨人的生活。
然而,本来就不安份的洛奇也还经常同其他的女巨人鬼混,因为女巨人们的生性正邪不一,所以洛奇又生有一批各不相同的巨人子女。当洛奇同巨人国中的一个生性极为怪异的女巨人相处过一段时间以后,那个女巨人为洛奇生下了三个非常可怕的孩子:一条蛇、一头狼和一个古怪的女孩子。
在三个孩子生下不久,亚萨园中就隐约流传着关于他们长大后会不利于亚萨神的预言。能够知道过去未来的奥丁自然心中要比众神更明白些,因此他特意派了托尔和泰尔两个神勇有力的亚萨神,到巨人国约顿海姆把这三个孩子带到亚萨园来。众神都认为,如果让这三个可怕的孩子在’s giant nation grow up, then once they grew up, the gods would find it difficult to control them.
At that time, Loki was not in Asgard; he did not know where he was or what he was doing. Thor and Tyr two brave Aesir gods tricked and scared the three little monsters into bringing them from Jotunheim to Asgard. In the great hall of Asgard's council chamber, Odin sitting high on his throne discussed with the gods how to handle these three monstrous children. The snake looked too horrible for anyone's liking; so all the gods loathed it. So Odin decided to have it thrown into the deepest sea outside Asgard.
The wolf looked different - soft and fluffy like a small dog one could play with. The gods felt sorry for this small life and decided to keep it as a pet instead of throwing it away like its siblings.
However, Loki had already fathered a girl child with another giantess who was half blue and half red; she had an eerie look about her. Odin decided that she should be sent to Niflheim (the land of ice) where death reigned supreme. She built a palace near a spring there called Hel which became known as Hel's castle having large doors and strong walls around it.
All people who died due to disease or old age entered her palace through those doors while she ruled over them as their queen masterfully serving food using dishes called Hunger bowls and knives called Famine knives along with servants named Laziness.
In Asgard meanwhile, Fenris Wolf grew rapidly under care by Tyr alone until even Tyr dared approach him no more fearing being devoured by him when grown up fully.
Fenris Wolf also broke off all chains put on him twice before eventually breaking off his last chain made by dwarves at binding strength 87.8 times stronger than any human force available then but still failed ultimately making everyone worried about future threats posed by such power unleashed upon earth.
To prevent further damage caused by this monster growing older among other threats threatening peace & order in world today we must learn from past experiences knowing our limitations without help from outsiders seeking solutions within own resources first before resorting external ones especially if those are dangerous themselves!
