One morning I woke up and reached to my side to grab my hammer. I didn’t feel it. I started grasping all of over my bed for my hammer, but it was not there. I finally awoke completely, and I was mad. “Where is my Mjollnir!” I yelled. I ran around asgard trying to find out who had taken my hammer. Then I found Loki. “Loki, where is my hammer!” Loki said he might know where it was and he flew away

            Loki flew to Jotunheim, the land of the giants, and met thrym the leader. Thrym told Loki that he had taken Thor’s hammer and had hidden it deep underground where nobody would be able to find it. The only way to get him to return it was to give him freya as a bride.

            Loki flew back to asgard, and told all of the gods the news. Freya refused to marry Thrym, despite my pleas. We had to get a new plan. Luckily for me Heimdall came up with a plan. Unfortunately for me I didn’t like heimdall’s plan, but there was no other way. I would have to dress up like freya and go to marry thrym.

            I dressed up like freya and loki escorted me to jotunheim and presented me to thrym. He became suspicious of me when I would not talk, and he asked loki about it. “She has lost her voice, she shouted for joy, for eight days, about getting to marry you,” Loki said. Thrym believed the lie, but he became suspicious again when I ate a monstrous amount of food and ale. Again loki defended me saying, “She was so excited about being your wife that she has not eaten in eight days.” Again Thrym believed it. Then thrym saw that my eyes were red. “She has not slept in eight days, she wanted to see you so bad,” Loki lied.

Thrym fell for all of Loki’s lies and still believed that I was freya. So just before we were to be married he brought out my hammer and gave it to me for a wedding gift. As soon as I had a hold of it, I killed Thrym and then went on to kill all of the rest of the giants in the area. The End

The conclusion to the myth begins when thrym believes my disguise, and gives me back mjollnir as a wedding present. I grabbed the hammer, threw off my veil and began pounding him with my hammer. As soon as I had destroyed him, I went on to kill all of the rest of the giants in the area. When they were all gone I went  back to asgard and hoped I would never have to wear a dress again.

The climax of my myth would be after heimdall comes up with his plan to get my hammer back… Me dress up like freyja! It was a very humiliating experience, that I do not wish to repeat, but like a true warrior I did what had to be done. I arrived at jotunheim, the home of the giants, and loki helped me cover up my masculinity, so thrym did not discover who I really was. The climax is really when the quality of my disguise is up and the air, and it is possible that thrym will discover who has really come to “marry” him.

In the myth my beloved hammer is stolen, Mjollnir the source of many of my powers! The wicked giant Thrym, had taken it and buried  it deep underground so it would be impossible to find. The giant would only give me my hammer if Freyja would agree to marry him. Freyja absolutely refused to marry such a horrible creature. So we would have to come up with some other way to get my hammer back. Luckily for me Heimdall came up with a solution. Sorry, but I’m not going to tell you the solution right now. Some version of the story say that Loki stole my hammer and gave it to Thrym.

The main character in the myth I am going to tell you is obviously me, Thor. I have already described myself to you so I will not do so again, but I will provide you with another picture.

Another character in the myth is loki. loki is a trickster and he loves to cause chaos. Some versions of the myth tell that loki is the reason there is any conflict at all.

The third character mentioned in the myth is freyja. Freyja is the wife of odin, the king of gods. she is kind and is the goddess of love. she is also the goddess of war and death.

heimdall is the guardian god. He is the gatekeeper for asgard. He has phenomenal hearing and sight. Here is a picture of him.
 
Thrym is the antagonist of the story. he is the evil king of jotunheim. the Iceland of the the giants. in this myth he does something unforgivable, and I have to punish him and all of the giants he rules.

The myth that I am going to tell you about has two different settings. It begins in asgard the wonderful home of the gods, located in the heavens.

then we leave asgard and travel to Jotunheim, the home of the giants, where the evil thrym is leader . Jotunheim is mountainous and  ice cold, like the hearts of the giants who inhabit the place.
