Fenrir pendant
Fenrir (Fenrir, Fenrisúlfr, Hróðvitnir) is a huge wolf in Norse mythology, the son of Loki and Angrboda.
The enemy of the gods, Fenrir (the Terrible Wolf) was the second of Loki's children. Initially the gods did not consider him dangerous enough and allowed him to live in Asgard. The wolf grew up among the Aesir and became so great and terrible that only Tyr, the god of military courage, dared to feed him. To protect themselves, the Aesir decided to chain Fenrir, but the mighty wolf easily tore the strongest chains (Leding and Drommy). In the end, the Aesir cunningly still managed to bind Fenrir with the magic chain Gleipnir, which the dwarves made from the noise of cats' footsteps, a woman's beard, mountain roots, bear veins (in ancient times tendons were attributed the properties of nerves), fish breath and bird saliva. All this is no longer in the world. Gleipnir was as thin and soft as silk. But in order for the wolf to allow this chain to be put on him, Thur had to put his hand in his mouth as a sign of his lack of evil intentions. When Fenrir could not free himself, he bit off Tyr's hand. The Ases chained Fenrir to a rock deep underground and thrust a sword between his jaws.
