Long ago there were there were two worlds, Niflheim and Muspellheim. To put it simply Niflheim was the world of ice and Muspellheim was the world of fire. Out of the ice the frost giant, Ymir, was born. Ymir fed on the milk of the cow,Auohumla. The cow in turn, licked salt blocks. The cow licked until the rim of the salt revealed a man by the name of Buri. Buri fathered Borr. Borr and his wife, Bestla, had three children Odin, Vili, and Ve. The brothers killed Ymir. His blood made all the jotuns drown, with the exception of two. Who survived they then rebuilt the race of Jotuns. The brothers used Ymir's body to create Midgard or the land of man. His blood formed rivers and lakes. His teeth become stones. His hair grew trees and maggots from his created the race of dwarves. His skull created the sky. The brothers named the dwarves that supported the sky North, South, West, and East. Ymir's brains became the clouds. He turned one of the sons of the surviving jotuns of the flood and turned him into an eagle. The eagle created wind. From pieces of drifted wood they made the first two men. A man named Ask-ash tree and a women named Embla-elm tree were created. They began the human race.
