A terrifying climate disaster may have inspired the Norse legend of Ragnarök after darkness, famine, and freezing temperatures spread across ancient Europe nearly 1,500 years ago.

Read my Poem “The Ordinary” at Altered Reality Magazine
One more poem to share on these Wednesdays. The final one in that trio of publications. Super grateful to Altered Reality Magazine for sharing my voice. I’m always honored.
This poem is another departure from the last two. It isn’t horror or science fiction, but pure fantasy with a hint of social commentary. I steal inspiration from Norse Mythology, my favorite of the big mythologies you’re forced to learn about in high school.
Also, in that same period of my life, I played a very influential video game called Valkyrie Profile which introduced a more personal and specific level of storytelling in the Norse mythology setting. That’s why I decided to get nostalgic with Odin in this poem and explore his line of thinking.
In “The Ordinary” I talk about Ragnarök, or the twilight of the gods, and how Odin is jealous about our simplicity compared to the cosmic battle he must fight at the end of times. He’s jealous of how easy we’ve got it on Midgard, even compared to the glory and majesty of this great war.
You can read “The Ordinary” right here.
And one more big thank you to Altered Reality for their acceptances. Again, please visit and read their whole catalogue. They’re awesome.
Happy reading, and have a great Wednesday!

There was nothing…
No sky, no land, no day, nor night.
A heavy silence filled Ginnungagap.
Fire crept from the South, panting, glowing.
From the North came frost, silent, deadly.
Their breaths touched; Mist was born.
Out of vapours, a body ascended.
Neither Audhumla nor Surtr, though, was a presence that preceded meaning.Read the full poem:

You can really tell that I focus on Japan. I just tend to overlook manhwa and don't know much about it. I'm aware of “Ragnarok” and “Solo Leveling: Ragnarok,” but that's it. I've just discovered “I Obtained a Mythic Item.” Does anyone know of any other manhwa featuring Norse mythology?

The One Piece anime is finally back. And I’m so excited that they’ve finally arrived at Elbaf. Seeing the giants named Loki, Gerd, Björn, Harald, Wolf, Ulva, Aegir, Olav, and Ronja really warms my heart as a specialist in Scandinavian studies. #onepiece #manga #anime #norsemythology #scandinavianstudies
