Aegir sitting in a dark damp brewery staring directly into the camera, heavily bearded and
evidently old.
He tries to recollect how he made the mead, so the recipe he gives isn’t very correct as he was
drunk.
Aegir is, however, not a god, but a mere giant that had made friends with the great god's such as
Odin due to his
exceptional mead brewing skills.
He has a strong accent and scars litter his skin indicating a battle-ridden life. In the eyes of
the gods this is
a great life to live.
“Ahh, you've arrived on this here website. So… you’d like to know about the greatest feast ever
thrown? All the gods remember this feast, and all the gods have a different telling but only I remember how it
really went. Only I can tell you this story.”
Chapter one
“A great feast requires 3 things: great alcohol; that’s my speciality, great guests; the Gods, and an amazing
location; Valhalla. For me to explain best it's probably wise to take you way back, way back.”
“Tyr and Thor knocked on my door carrying a cauldron as big as Jörmungandr’s gob. The Feast of the Gods was 3
days
away and preparations were taking place all across the village. They placed the cauldron in the middle of the
floor
and I began to pour pond water into it. Wait… that’s not right. Preparations were taking place all across the
village. Tyr and Thor placed the cauldron to the right of the building and I began to pour water into it
bringing it
up to a boil.”
Chapter two
“Once the water was boiling and steam was rising, making the sky a fluffy grey, it was time to add the barrels of
honey Freyjas had brought me earlier in the day. I couldn’t help but have a taste of the sweet honey but got my
hand stuck and nearly fell into the cauldron itself before Sindri came and yanked me out. No… it wasn’t Sindri,
it was his brother Brokkr!”
