Story 88: Surt’s Flaming Raging Poisoning(?) Sword of Doom

Muses of Mythology

“He’s just Father from Codename: Kids Next Door!”
Darien (she/her) and DJ (he/him) present the perfect episode for a mid-summer heatwave: Muspelheim, land of lava and fire.
Other topics include the narrative choice to not include the book one villain in book three, origins of the universe, another examination into why stating that “Snorri made it up” fails to grasp the nuisance of oral traditions and evolving cultural mythologies, the importance of choosing translations with care, Surt’s impeccable fashion sense, a poetic description for the thing that ruins branches, and Surt’s theoretical Icelandic volcano demon origins.
Spoilers for Codename: Kids Next Door, SMITE, God of War (2018), Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla, Thor Dark World, Thor Ragnarok, Avengers: Infinity War, and Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends
Content Warning: This episode contains mentions of and conversations about death, maiming, implied animal euthanasia, the afterlife, and murder.
