よくある質問
Loki and the giantess Angrboda, whose name means 'Anguish-Boding,' are the parents of three of the most fearsome beings in Norse mythology. Their children include Fenrir, a giant wolf; Jormungand, a world-spanning serpent; and Hel, the goddess of the dead. These figures are not merely monsters but are central to the Viking understanding of chaos and the eventual destruction of the world during the events of Ragnarok.
In Norse mythology, the offspring of Loki and Angrboda serve as the literal agents of the apocalypse. While the Aesir gods represent order, Fenrir, Jormungand, and Hel represent the forces of chaos that threaten the heroic pantheon. The Vikings used these stories to make sense of the literal end of the world, positioning these three siblings as the primary catalysts for the final destruction known as Ragnarok.
Loki is a complex, shape-shifting figure who exists as a walking contradiction within the Aesir. Although he is counted among the main group of gods, his father was a giant named Farbauti, or 'Cruel Striker.' Loki oscillates between being a wily ally to the gods and their worst nightmare, a duality that becomes even more dangerous through his lineage and the birth of his monstrous children who bring about the end of days.
