  • Dive into the icy depths of Niflheim and uncover the mysteries of the draugr dragons, Níðhöggr, and Fáfnir, three of the most formidable creatures in Norse mythology.
    In these ancient narratives where reality intertwines with myth, we explore the enigmatic origin of Níðhöggr, a dragon that dwells beneath the roots of the World Tree, Yggdrasil, and whose existence is vital to Norse cosmogony. This is not just a tale of destruction, but a profound reflection on renewal and the eternal cycles of life and death.
    Níðhöggr, whose name evokes "malicious strike", emerges as a potent symbol of the challenges that plague the nine worlds of Norse lore.
    Beyond him, the tragic saga of Fáfnir, who transforms from dwarf to fierce dragon due to his greed, reveals the deadly consequences of avarice. His epic confrontation with Sigurd, a legendary hero, is one of many moments that highlight the power and depth of the sword Gram and the cruel fate marked by the Ring of Andvari.
    And then, there are the draugr, those zombie figures that protect ancient treasures and, in some versions of the myth, take on draconian forms, guarding not just riches but forgotten secrets and ancient powers.
    This video is a journey through the darkest corners and richest narratives of Norse folklore, where each story is a thread in the complex fabric that shapes the fate of gods and men.
