Edda: taruopillinen alkuosa; Gylfin harhanäky (Gylfaginning)

"Edda: taruopillinen alkuosa; Gylfin harhanäky (Gylfaginning)" by Snorri Sturluson is the first main part of the 13th-century Prose Edda. A Swedish king named Gylfi journeys to Asgard seeking answers about the Æsir gods. Inside a great palace, he encounters three mysterious men on thrones who respond to his questions about Norse mythology, including the creation and eventual destruction of the world. But nothing in this realm may be what it seems.
