Naglfar — the Ragnarök ship built from the nails of the dead. Clip the dying’s nails, or you help her launch. Loki at the helm.

Attested in the Poetic Edda, compiled in the 13th century from earlier tradition, in the Prose Edda.

At Svolder the Long Serpent was ringed by foes. Einarr’s great bow snapped; Olaf asked what broke. “Norway from your hands, king.” Then the king leapt in full armour rather than be taken. Most sagas drown him. Later, he's walking the Holy Land still. #NorseMyths #BattleofSvolder
