Ymir (EE-meer)
Norse Deity
Ymir, the primeval being of Norse cosmogony, is the colossal progenitor from whose flesh the world was shaped. His presence is as vast as the primordial chaos, a being whose end is the beginning of all things. Ymir's form is the land itself, his body the hills and valleys, his blood the rivers and seas. His eyes, as old as the ice and as clear as the ancient glaciers, bear witness to the birth of the cosmos and the shaping of realms. His voice is the echo from the gulf, the rumbling of the earth's depths, the sound that reverberates through the fabric of the nine worlds. As the forebear of giants and the substance of the world, Ymir's touch is the raw material of creation, the elemental stuff that composes every being and object. In Ymir's shadow, the world knows its own origin, the legacy of its formation, and the monumental beginning from which life and land sprang forth.
