OriginNorse Mythology
Following the tragic death of the beloved god Baldr, the Aesir gather to perform a grand funeral ceremony. They use Baldr's own ship, Hringhorni, as a massive pyre, requiring the help of the giantess Hyrrokkin to launch it. The event is marked by profound grief, the death of Baldr's wife Nanna, and the presence of all the divine realms in mourning.
