Ragnarok is the great prophesied battle that marks the end of the Norse gods and the rebirth of the world. It is foretold that Loki and his monstrous children will lead an army against Odin, Thor, and the other gods in a final battle. This epic conflict will bring about chaos, destruction, and ultimately, renewal.
The myths say that Fenrir, the giant wolf, will devour Odin, while Thor and the world-serpent Jormungandr will slay each other. After the battle, the world will rise anew, with a few surviving gods and humans to rebuild civilization. This apocalyptic tale fascinated the Vikings and shaped their warrior mindset.
