Norse Mythology Explained In 15 Minutes

In the beginning, there was nought but a great yawning void known as Ginnungagap. The first realm to form was Muspellsheim in the south, a bright land, engulfed in fire and guarded by Surt with his flaming sword. To the north formed Niflheim, the freezing land of fog, containing the spring Hvergelmir, from where the primordial rivers began to flow.

From driftwood, Odin and his brothers created new life. Odin gifting them breath and life, Vili intelligence and feeling and Ve form, speech, hearing and sight. Thus, the first humans were born, a man and a woman, Ash and Elm. They were given a home in Midgard and it is here where humans still reside to this day.
