Mythology[]
| “ | Poets used the kenning "Aegir's jaws" as a metaphor for formidable destruction: men and ships were crushed by Aegir's brute strength, powered by the physical might of the ocean. Several rock giants also thirsted for destruction, such as Hrungnir, who violated the hospitality of the Aesir gods by drunkenly threatening to destroy Asgard and carry off Valholl (Valhalla) to his home in Jotunheim. | ” |
