"In this artwork, I wanted to display the mystery and wisdom associated with the All-Father of the Norse gods. The artwork features Odin with all his attributes, his ravens, his wolves, his spear, his drinking horn, his hat and his magic ring. The illustration also features various references to stories related to Odin like the three shields in the bottom. The first shield shows Odin sacrificing his eye to the well of Mimir for wisdom, the second shield depicts Sleipnir Odin's eight legged horse and the third shield shows how Odin and his two brothers carved the first two humans Ask and Embla out of wood."

Woden and his prized bear carving commission for Yew!

Odin, wanderer, knowledge seeker, king of the Aesir, travels all the nine realms and sends his two ravens Hugin and Munin to Midgard to get news from the mortal realm.

Offering for Odin

Odin, the All-Father, wise and strong With his one eye, he sees what's long gone God of knowledge, magic, and war His ravens Huginn and Muninn soar

He wanders the nine realms with his spear Seeking knowledge to quench his thirst, to hear The secrets of the gods, of life and death And from his knowledge, he gains great wealth

The runes, he gifted to us all A tool for wisdom, a power to call The magic of the gods, the power of fate The knowledge of Odin, never too late

In battles, he leads the charge The Valkyries, his warriors at large Fearsome and mighty, with his sword in hand Odin, the All-Father, ruler of the land

Oh Odin, we honor you today Your wisdom, your magic, your fierce display We honor your sacrifice, your search for truth In you, we find the strength of our youth

Hail Odin, All-Father, wise and strong May we always remember you in our song In your knowledge and power, we find our way Odin, guide us, now and always.

have we considered that maybe frigga's the xenophobic bloodthirsty parent? odin doesn't seem very pro-war or even anti-frost-giants so far in this one, yet both his kids are leaning towards violence as the best policy here.

am also not convinced odin was actually going to retire and was maybe planning to not king thor up anyway (to humble him by publically shaming him?) but maybe i will finally work out how the asgardian monarchy actually works on this rewatch. was this going to be a henry the young king scenario or what?

frigga's got to stand at the coronation, she has no throne of her own. (possibly because she's a bloodthirty xenophobe, but probably not it's probably just nobody thinks she deserves a chair of her own.)

On belief

…the soothsayer, the wise woman, the medicus, the gods of the countryside, the sacred wells, the tree of Thunor hung with prayers too, propitiations at the demons’ pit, coins and offerings thrown in Grendel’s Mere, prayers too to the saint in his shrine.
