Goddesses and Gods
Freyja
Freyja was goddess of love and fertility.
Freyja wept in golden tears then she was unhappy.
The vikings believed that the gods ruled the world.


Freyr
God of Plenty,
Freyjas twin brother travelled in a boat big enough to hold all of the gods but which also folded up and could fit in his pocket.


Tyr
The original god of war and the patron god of justice, before Odin
He is the boldest of the gods, who inspires courage and heroism in battle.
Tyr was a man with one hand, because his right hand was bitten off by the gigantic wolf.
