Emblas Saga

Warriors, hear my words Three are the tales that you now will be told Three bitter memories of times, foreign and old Three were my nightmares in which eternity swirled And three were the children that would ruin our world So much did the trickster despise his very own kind In the iron woods he looked and knew what he would find A giantess, a witch willing to carry his seed An unholy union was fulfilled, but to where would it lead? One would rule the oceans where humans swim and get their fish One would be strapped to a mountain with a final burning wish And one would be thrown to a throne most of us will see They were prisoners of their time, by Ragnarök set free

He woke up in fear and doubt Hammerless and mad "Give it back at once you thief Or I'll go tell my dad" Giant slayer, Jotun bane Mjölnir is its name It was stolen and defiled Held as hostage in the giant's games The adventure of the bride And how Thor regained his pride Stealing from a god You clueless fools I am the god of thunder I will show you theft Your world will fall And crumble down before my might Lightning and thunder, follow their path As they hastily cross the sky Bridesmaid and bride, ready for death And the bloodbath that was nigh "Look there" Loki said, as he pointed to the west "A castle in the night" The rage of Thor shone through the night The thunder in his heart Stealing from a god You clueless fools I am the god of thunder I will show you theft Your world will fall And crumble down before me Thunder followed by lightning I'm crossing the sky With vengeance in mind Hear me, hammer of glory I am on my way As our bride waited for his first true kiss His heart did beat with worry The hammer must return His dress fell to his feet As he felt Mjölnir in his palm - Hammer time The hammer has returned Weapon in hand, he sprung from his seat Crushing the skull of his groom A massacre of a tremendous scale Spreading blood across the room The joy in his heart could not be met The slaughter was truly obscene The darkness within the lightning god And a carnage seldom seen Stealing from a god You clueless fools I am the god of thunder I will show you theft Your world will fall And crumble down before my might

Clear as the sky On a midwinter's night And deep as the stormy sea I hear a whisper inside A hunger devouring me I beseech you, my heart, to be free Farther away Than the night from the day I reach for your true embrace Shadow of mine Memories fail through the veil of my mind Here at the end of our time Sure as the sun will rise Over blood-red skies I will be on my way Come the break of day Dark as the night will be So my heart, are we Sorrow will reave my soul This, my heart, I know A thread has been spun By an unyielding hand The Norns have laid down my path Just like the seed has to grow The withering leaf must let go To be buried beneath the snow Sure as the sun will rise Over blood-red skies I will be on my way Come the break of day Shrouded in doubt As I leave for the shore Though cold and unkind The horizon calls Way, way, wayward waves I will follow you home And vanish into the unknown Sure as the sun will rise Over blood-red skies I will be on my way Come the break of day Dark as the night will be So my heart, are we Sorrow will reave my soul This, my heart, I know Weaver of fate To your will I must fold Oh, wisdom of old I beseech you, my heart to set free

Ek dreyma umb eldr Ek dreyma umb dauðl Hvar stjornur hrjóða grima himinn Eldr ok dauðl - myrkr ok rauða Tveir andilt þú hafa O grima þǫgn In the beginning there was only darkness Of icy mist and smoke A darkness so completely dark By war and death invoked Sparkling flames would dare to reach Across the arid void And melt the rim of ice and frost That framed it from the north Oh, the birth of gods, the fall of foes Oh, children of the tree Now listen close, and hear the truth Of how you came to be First was the giant, Ymir his name Then the cow Authumla, out of the melting ice they came From Ymirs' palm another pair of giants, born and bred Then left and right, his feet would mate to birth a child with several heads Authumla fed on frost in all her pride and grace She woke the very first of gods by licking on his face She ate away the icy cage that held him in his fury A man of beauty and of might by the name of Burí Burí somehow got a son, who somehow got a wife Burí, Borr and Bestla – the avengers of their time Then Bestla bore the children who made this story true Vile, Ve and Odin – who created me and you Memories will fade from man The snow of death will fall upon The children of Wodan Distant echoes, whispering Of how it all began For the children of Wodan Three were the brothers, three were the gods In a world of giants, conspiring how to turn the odds They slayed the very oldest, the one who was the first Within the flowing blood - every giant was submerged These waters of decay would never cease to flow Creating every sea and every river that we know And while the giants drowned, the gods got the idea To take the corpse of Ymir and make the earth appear His body would become the soil, his skull became the sky And then they threw his giant brains aloft to form the clouds His teeth became the rocks, they made mountains from his bones And on the meadows through his hair the summer breeze was blown Out of the ashes and into the light The dead will make room for the living Deep in the darkest of nights The end is another beginning The fire in my dreams The death so long foreseen The darkest sky Adorned by lights What does it hide? Out of the ashes rise The glowing seed of life The darkest sky Two faces hides Oh, silent night When the gods were done They took a little break A stroll upon the beach To take a breath and contemplate Two logs of ash and elm Lay stranded on the shore The children of the forest The children of the gods From dead to animated And no longer adrift For like the fairy godmothers They gave them special gifts The first would grant them spirit And life beyond the plant The second gave them movement And the wit to understand The third would give them faces Their hearing and their sight And thus the very first of humans Were brought to life Memories will fade from man The snow of death will fall upon The children of Wodan Distant echoes, whispering Of how it all began For the children of Wodan
