What was Norse mythology all about?
In Norse mythology there were 9 worlds: Gimle (the high heaven), Asgard (world of the aesir gods), Alf Heim (world of the elves),Vana Heim ( world of the Vanir gods), Jotun Heim (world of the giants and trolls), Midgard (the earth), Darkalf Heim (world of the gnomes), Muspel Heim (world of fire), and Hel Heim and Nifl Heim, which both made up the underworld. Norse mythology mostly tells the story of the aesir gods. The aesir gods included gods such as Odin, Thor, Heimdall (guard of Asgard, which was the home of the gods),Freya, Frigg, Loki, and many others. Loki was special because he was a jotun (a frost giant) but he looked like a god and so Odin became blood brothers with him by mixing their blood. And thus Loki became a god. It soon became clear that Loki was more trouble than he was worth, but the gods couldn't do anything to the trickster because he was Odin's blood brother. Loki's sons and daughter eventually brought about Ragnarokk, the end of the Norse gods.

Where did Thor live?
Thor, along with all the other Aesir of Norse mythology, lived in Asgard (Home of the gods). His own palace there was named Bilskirnir. Asgard was one of nine realms created by the gods and was linked via the magical rainbow bridge, Bifrost to Midgard (middle earth) Thor also spent much time in Jotunheim, although he did not live there. He would make forays into the home of the Giants for sport. As the strongest of the gods he alone was able to contest the giants in single combat, and this he enjoyed greatly.
Who was the god of fire in the Norse mythology?
There really was no Norse "god" of fire. There was Logi, who was of a race of sort of proto-giants who seems to have represented fire and whose name means "wildfire." There was also Surtr (whose name means "black" or "blackened") who was leader of the Fire-Giants of Musphel (the Home of Fire), and who will destroy both the gods, the Frost Giants and pretty much the whole Universe with his flaming sword during the final battle of Ragnarok. Finally, some people claim that Loki was a "god" of fire. This is mainly because his name is superfically close to Logi (That and people think a god of fire is cool.). But really his name is more closely related to Old Norse "lokka" -- meaning "to close, to lock, to end." Loki does have the same dual nature as fire (i.e. it can be very helpful, or very harmful), but anything beyond that is a stretch. Actually Loki seems more closely related to lighning. E.g. He often accompanies Thor (the Thunderer) on travels; One of his other names is "the Air-Walker," and many Scandinavian folk traditions held that any instance of shimmering light was some manifestation of Loki.
