The kidnapping of Idunn
Military: Battle
When the goddess
Idunn was kidnapped by the eagle Þjazi,
Thor and
Loki were sent to rescue her.
Þjazi was keeping her on an island, far from land and too steep and rocky to be reached by anyone who couldn't fly.
Loki used his shape-shifting to become a crow, taunting Þjazi and pulling his tailfeathers. When Þjazi attacked him, he flew back to the mainland with Þjazi in pursuit, where Thor was waiting to kill the eagle.
