OriginNorse Mythology

The trickster god Loki sneakily shaves off the golden hair of Sif, the wife of Thor, leading to a confrontation that forces Loki to seek a replacement from the master smiths of the dwarves. This act of malice ultimately results in the creation of the greatest treasures of the Norse gods, including Thor's hammer, Mjölnir.
