OverviewWhat if the Viking gods weren't born to rule but were forged in war, blood, and sacrifice long before the first saga was ever told? Vikings: Myths of Creation is not a retelling. It is the forgotten beginning of a world where gods were hunted, the sky was born from bone, and the roots of a single tree held up nine entire realms. This codex does not just deliver myths, it reconstructs the Norse universe from its most primal sparks and offers a complete journey through the origin of existence according to Viking belief. Unlike other mythology books that skim through stories, this work weaves together the spiritual logic, divine conflict, and cosmological design that gave Norse myths their raw power and eternal mystery. Inside, you will experience: The Shaping of a Universe from Chaos: Before gods, before time, and before law, there was Ginnungagap, a yawning void between worlds of fire and frost. You will witness how heat and ice birthed Ymir, how a cosmic cow named Audhumla licked the first god from ice, and how the first murder, which was the killing of Ymir, became the act that created the earth, the sky, and the sea. The First Gods and the Rise of Power: You will meet Búri, Borr, and the sons of Odin who did not inherit the world but took it by force. You will discover how the Aesir gods built Asgard not with peace but with conquest, and how their uneasy alliance with the Vanir shaped the first divine war in history. Yggdrasil: The Tree That Holds Everything Together: It is not a metaphor but a living structure of reality. You will understand how its roots reach Hel, how its branches stretch over the sky, and how every realm such as Midgard, Asgard, Jotunheim, and Alfheim and many more is linked in purpose and position. Even time, fate, and prophecy grow along its bark. Thor's Rage and Sacred Purpose: You will see why Thor was more than a warrior because he was the guardian of human order and the thunder that answered chaos. With Mjolnir in hand, he fought trolls, giants, sea beasts, and time itself not for glory but to preserve the balance between realms. Odin's Sacrifice for the Secrets of Existence: The codex reveals Odin's self-hanging from Yggdrasil, his bargain with Mimir for the Well of Wisdom, and the riddles he posed to humans and gods alike. Odin is not a benevolent father because he is a seeker who pays in pain for every truth he uncovers. The Aesir and Vanir War and the Invention of Peace: When Gullveig brought seidr magic and greed to Asgard, war erupted. You will explore the politics of divine hostages, the dismemberment of Mimir, and how peace was forged not through surrender but through ritual and sacrifice. Ask and Embla, the First Humans: Pulled from driftwood by Odin and his brothers, you will witness how humans were sculpted not from dust but from living trees and were given breath, mind, and fate. Humanity was not created as servants but as a necessary echo of divine order. The Sky as a Battlefield and the Sun as a Chase: Sol and Mani, personified as siblings forced to flee from wolves, show how even the heavens are hunted. Every day and night becomes a countdown to their doom and to the twilight of the gods. This codex is a mythological reconstruction and also a sacred lens into the Viking imagination before Christianity reshaped it. No other book connects the ancient Norse myths into one continuous story of becoming.
