Continued this handpoked sleeve – Loki and Thir fighting each other. On the inner arm, Freya with her Brisingamen. Inspired by two peomes:
In the poem Þrymskviða of the Poetic Edda, Þrymr, the king of the jǫtnar, steals Thor’s hammer, Mjölnir. Freyja lends Loki her falcon cloak to search for it. But upon returning, Loki tells Freyja that Þrymr has hidden the hammer and demanded to marry her in return. Freyja is so wrathful that all the Æsir’s halls beneath her are shaken and the necklace Brísingamen breaks off from her neck. Later, Thor borrows Brísingamen when he dresses up as Freyja to go to the wedding at Jǫtunheimr.
In thr Prose Edda: Húsdrápa, a skaldic poem partially preserved in the Prose Edda, relates the story of the theft of Brísingamen by Loki. One day when Freyja wakes up and finds Brísingamen missing, she enlists the help of Heimdallr to help her search for it. Eventually they find the thief, who turns out to be Loki and who has transformed himself into a seal. Heimdallr turns into a seal as well and fights Loki.
All handpoked. This time
