[00:06:31]Lift your high.

[00:07:03]Welcome back to the deep diving into EDA poems with Maria Kilhog series here on Patreon.

[00:07:11]This is episode 53 in the series as a whole and the third episode in the fifth season. The poems of Sigur for Barney.

[00:07:23]In the first episode that is episode 51, we summarized the narrative as it appears in 15 EDA poems.

[00:07:34]In the previous episode, uh the second episode 52, we looked at runic inscriptions and other archaeological sources which illustrate the narrative, showing that this narrative was associated with the afterlife, much like a bridge for the soul and that Christianity embraced it, reinterpreted it, and made it their own. meaning that we must discern the older pagan heathen elements from the younger medieval ones.

[00:08:13]In this episode, episode 53, we will move on to another valuable written medieval source to the siguru narrative, namely the scald scar, the speech of creation of poetry.

[00:08:35]In the previous season, we studied the narratives of Sig Gur's older brother, Helgi Huning Bonnie, and his previous incarnation as Heli.

[00:08:50]In Eda poetry, these Helgi narratives are set in clear connection with the Sigisbani narrative and also appear as part of the same saga in the Vonga saga which we shall look at in the next episode.

[00:09:08]As we pointed out in the previous episode, the sigur narratives were considered universally relevant and associated with the afterlife of the human soul.

[00:09:23]Likewise, the Helgi narratives may have once in pagan times been considered equally relevant of universal interest, spiritually relevant to all human beings.

[00:09:40]But the Helgi narrative's emphasis on reincarnation and its lack of counterparts to Christian symbolism, the snake and such, may have made it less easily adaptable.

[00:09:55]And as medieval literature flourished, the ancient legends of the reincarnated hero and his reincarnating Valkyia bride faded in favor of the stories of his younger brother, Siku.

[00:10:18]In the previous season, we saw that there were two main sources to the Helgi narrative. the medieval world saga and the Eda poems. Both of these sources immediately continue with the Sigur narrative since Sigert is said to be Heli's younger brother born after the deaths of his father and brothers. The Sigur story has even more surviving sources than the Helgi stories. The reason might be what we just mentioned that the Siguru story was adapted to fit a Christian worldview.

[00:10:54]Besides, many parts of the sig good narrative were known also outside of Scandinavia, possibly drawing from historical events in central Europe of the fourth and fifth centuries.

[00:11:11]Late sources to the story appeared both in Iceland and on the European continent during the 13th century, mainly on skull where the story is used as a part of an explanation for metaphors for gold so to speak. Then we have the Icelandic vera saga closely based on the Eda poems including the Heli legends and we have the old high German romance novel the knee belonging lead the song of the children of the mist.

[00:11:55]In this episode, we are going to look closer at the scald scar, the speech of the art of poetry.

[00:12:09]In this episode, we are in fact going to read the entire story as told by Snory in the skull scoparmo. The title scar means the speech of poetry creation and it constitutes the second part of Sni's pros eda was an Icelandic chief scholar and scald that is a professional barge who preserved large parts of pagan mythology for posterity along with scaldic and eda poetry and saga lore. Anybody interested in pagan mythology and history should be deeply thankful to this medieval scholar for the service that he did us. Without his dedication, we would know very little about pagan mythology. His work has generally been our main source to such mythology and he also preserved a lot of the old poems that we only have access to because of him. This is why I get seriously pissed off whenever I hear modern people dismiss NY as a Christian politician which has become a popular and very ignorant and stupid trend for the last decade or so. Dismissing him like that just shows that you don't have understanding of the sources or uh the source material that we are actually working on here.

[00:13:39]First of all, if we were to dismiss sources written by so-called Christian politicians in the medieval era, we would have to dismiss them all. We would literally have nothing. There was no scholar or person alive in the 1200s that was not officially Christian.

[00:14:00]Anything else was in fact forbidden and punishable by death.

[00:14:05]All Icelandic scholars also were from the class of men who were by their very social status so-called politicians.

[00:14:14]They derived from the class of people who could speak at parliament and vote.

[00:14:22]In the last few decades, the concept of academic source criticism has been gravely misunderstood by many modern readers to the point where they think that looking at works written down by Christian medieval scholars must be dismissed, leaving us with nothing.

[00:14:41]And since dismissing all our written sources completely is clearly absurd, it has become a popular trend today to somehow decide to only dismiss who happens to be one of the best storytellers of the medieval era and who dedicated his life to preserve pagan mythology.

[00:15:10]And here is what they get wrong. Looking at ancient sources with a critical eye means that one must read their works with discernment and understanding of the time period that they worked in.

[00:15:26]Not everything they say may be taken as literal truth about the pagan past since obviously they were influenced by their own Christian era. But what they tell will still provide insight. And when compared with archaeological sources and other records, we may form a realistic image of the past while being aware that we cannot know everything.

[00:15:54]That is what being critical means. Not that the source is dismissible, but that it must be analyzed with a critical informed eye. Attitudes that must stem from Christianity must be carefully removed to reveal the layers of ancient lore beneath.

[00:16:21]Snaran understood something crucial about Norse mythology that many things were hidden behind symbols and poetical metaphors. His book known to us as the pros eda contains almost everything you think you know about Norsmiths. It is thanks to him that you know it. And it is actually meant to be a book about how to analyze and interpret said mythology by way of interpreting the poetical language it was transmitted through.

[00:16:53]Snorty himself directly said so as we're going to see his book was meant for young barge to understand that which had been subtly told.

[00:17:05]Let us read a passage from the pros eda from the second book scold scalp chapter 8 where snor states the purpose with his Burke and little Some words meant for aspiring BS.

[00:18:04]But this is now to be said to young BS, those who most desire to learn the language of poetry and to acquire a wealthy vocabulary with ancient cover words or who desire to be able to discern that which has been composed in a subtle manner in a subtle manner.

[00:18:26]Then he should use this book the pros ed for wisdom and for entertainment.

[00:18:35]>> Yeah. That which has been composed in a subtle manner.

[00:18:50]Another thing that makes Snoris Dusan unique is that he was an actual scold.

[00:18:56]He was a B educated in the ancient lore of skull sculp of poetry creation.

[00:19:04]Unlike the writers of later saga sources who do not get this sort of dismissal from modern readers, Snotty did not write down his sagas or his lore. He hired young scribes from a local monastery to write down the stories that he told while standing and talking. He was our last oral transmitter of pagan lore.

[00:19:34]He was fully aware that his art of bardship, his skull sculp, originated in the pagan era and that he was one of its last carriers. He had to get his knowledge written down. He himself transmitted the lore orally as it had been transmitted for centuries on end.

[00:20:00]He literally spoke the pros eda and other people wrote it down from hearing him.

[00:20:12]By being a scald, a carrier of an ancient tradition, Snory was educated and acquainted with pagan lore in a way few of his contemporaries still were.

[00:20:25]Skull scarp was one of the ancient art of fur kingi of great knowledge which included pagan art like s divination witchcraft healing shapeshifting berserkang out of body travel spells in snow this time skull cup was the only form of fur kingi of great knowledge that was still legal and it carried knowledge of pagan concepts at its very core.

[00:20:55]The poetical paraphrasing it was based on demanded deep knowledge of pagan concepts.

[00:21:03]We can at least assume that Snoody knew infinitely more about such ancient lore and pagan concepts than anyone who lives today.

[00:21:20]Snoody's Pro Zeda was meant as a textbook for aspiring skulls teaching them the basics of poetry and the narratives that underly the use of symbolism in poetical language.

[00:21:35]This was his purpose. The book was divided into three parts. In the first part, the gulfing gulf is sight warpings. A young king arrives in Ocar and starts asking questions that are answered by a trinity of gods all referred to by Udini nicknames for Udin.

[00:21:57]He must stand on the floor while asking.

[00:22:00]The asking and the answering seem to mimic an oral teaching situation that may once have been common in the education of aspiring skulls. In this part we are taught the basic cosmology of pagan mythology.

[00:22:18]In the second part the skull scaparol the ocean arrives in odd and sits by a table asking and listening to brag the god of poetry revealing his knowledge of the underlying meanings of subtle poetical sayings.

[00:22:37]While the gulfin was mainly based on eda poetry, the skull scaparol often refers to scaldic poetry.

[00:22:47]In the third part, the hot sni explains the diverse styles of rhyming and other poetical language techniques and verse forms.

[00:23:01]In the skull scari explains the narrative backgrounds to diverse that is cover names and kingar that is poetical metaphors or paraphrasings where basically everything is described poetically by saying something seemingly completely different.

[00:23:25]One of the most important type of keninger are the ones that describe gold and it seems implied that gold itself is not merely the metal but also carries a deeper spiritual meaning.

[00:23:41]The theme of gold is in fact the main reason why Sny tells the tale of Siguris Barney and his in-laws the nlungar the children of the mist.

[00:23:54]It is not just any sort of gold. It is a sort of gold desired by the gods and the yetna. Gold that may make its owner shine brightly as they move between worlds.

[00:24:12]Let us now begin to look at Sni's skull scar as translated by myself and see how the theme of gold repeats itself and introduces the story of Sig and for a original source I have used the raster which is A transcription by Gnner Yansson from 1935 and I have translated this in 2026 from Skull Scapar the speech of poetic creation. Shore for he finger.

[00:25:56]visits the world of the gods.

[00:26:02]A man is named the terrifying one or hel the wind shield.

[00:26:12]He lives on that island which is now called Heli.

[00:26:18]Windshield Island.

[00:26:21]He had a lot of great knowledge.

[00:26:36]>> He set his course to the world of the gods. And the gods knew beforehand about his journey.

[00:26:50]>> And he was well received. Although many things there were made with sight warpings, hallucinations, optical illusions. Fore!

[00:27:18]Foreign! Foreign!

[00:27:28]foreign.

[00:27:40]And in the evening when they were to drink, then Udin let Carrie into the hall swirls that were so bright that they shone, and no other light did they have while they were seated at the drinking table.

[00:28:06]A thought the place was splendid to look at. The walls there were covered with beautiful shields.

[00:28:16]There was also amazing meat and much was drunk.

[00:28:22]Next to Aar sat Braggi and they shared a drink and shifted verbs.

[00:28:31]Braggi told Agger about many tidings, the adventures that their gods had owned.

[00:28:45]Then the gods went to their banquet and 12 acid hold.

[00:28:52]sat in their high seats.

[00:28:57]those who were supposed to be judges do men and they were so called Thor Fali Vi for and Li.

[00:29:21]The same was the case with the goddesses or they were Fri Fa Gian Eden Ga and Nana.

[00:29:43]After this introduction, the god of poetry Braggi begins to tell the tales that explain the symbolism of poetical sayings to the ocean egg.

[00:29:57]The presence of other gods and goddesses as judges may in my opinion reflect on a sort of teaching and examination process such as when an aspiring novice scald was to prove his knowledge of poetical rules.

[00:30:19]The first tale presented in this book is the story of how Eden was abducted into the world of the Yetnur, leaving the gods to grow old and die without her power to rejuvenate them.

[00:30:34]The story is about divine immortality and how it was lost without the goddess.

[00:30:42]Snorty also here quotes the entire Scaldic poem Host L on which he based his explanation of the myth and he knew this poem by heart. And this poem is considered to have been composed originally by the scald jewel dolph around the year 900 preserved orally until it was recorded by Snori 300 years later. One of our oldest sources to Norse myths.

[00:31:13]Sny also added a story of how the event led to the arrival of the year woman Scott into the world of the gods. An event that the poem only hinted vaguely to is our main source to everything we know about Scardi.

[00:31:41]As the story of Eden's abduction was concluded, Agit asks of Braggi a question about the family of the Jan Chi, father of Scaldi. And the reply leads us to the theme of gold.

[00:32:06]Let us hear it from Sny again of at Chartza of Chart's lineage.

[00:32:20]Braggi said it is said that Udin made this as compensation to Scardi that he took the eyes of her father Chartsi and threw them up to heaven and made them into two stars. Then said, "Formidable it seems to me that Chartsy must have been. Of what kind was he?"

[00:32:45]Braggi replied Valdi ale ruler was his father and remarkable he may seem to you if I tell you about him. He was very very gold abundance.

[00:33:12]And when he died and his sons were to divide the inheritance, then they each had a mouthful of gold and they divided it by each in turn taking an equal amount of mouthfuls.

[00:33:27]One of them, one of of the sons of a ruler was Chzi. Another was Edi, the movable hardworking Eddie Whirlpool.

[00:33:39]A third was gang gate or walk.

[00:33:44]And from this we have with us now the saying that we call gold by kennings like the mouth speech of these yet. And we hide it in runes or in poetry. This way that we call the gold the speech or words or sayings of these yet.

[00:34:15]Then said, "This seems to me well hidden in runes."

[00:34:32]The statement at the end of chapter 4 that something here is well hidden in runes, as in hidden in letters and symbols, is followed by a long discourse about diverse symbolic sayings in Old Norse poetry.

[00:34:54]until we finally return to the theme of gold in chapter 40.

[00:35:14]Girls can elig 40 kar for golden egg asked how shall we know golden and brag replied so as to call it the fire of Edgar and the leaves of the crystal tree, hair of the kinswoman, headband of the fulfilled one, weeping of Freya, the speech or voice or words of the Yetnar, the drops of the dripper ring, and the rain or shower of the dripper or of the eyes of Freya, the utter atonement, the need atonement of the gods, the seed of the ebbing fields, Helg's mound roof, the fire of all water, ers and of the hands or arms, the stones and reefs or gleam of the arms.

[00:37:01]This summary of diverse sayings for gold is followed by a lengthy discourse where agit asks why gold is called by the diverse sayings listed in chapter 40.

[00:37:14]It begins by asking why gold is called Elder Agis, the fire of Agar.

[00:37:22]And the story that explains this metaphor takes us back to start to the time that Agir visited the real of the gods. This event is still taking place.

[00:37:35]Agar is still seated by the divine table asking questions and being answered by Bragi. But now the narrative moves on to what happened afterwards as if this is a place outside of time from where one may look both back and forth in time.

[00:38:12]The attend a banquet at a asked, "Why is gold called fire?"

[00:38:30]replied, for the replied. This story refers to what before has been told that Eg sought to visit the world of the gods. And when he prepared for the return journey, then he invited to himself Udin and all the gods.

[00:39:15]To this journey came first Udin and Fra, T, Braggi, Var, Li, and the goddesses Fri, Freya, Geud, Scari, Eden, and Se.

[00:39:30]Thor was not there. He had traveled the eastern paths to kill Trolls.

[00:39:42]at the patrol.

[00:39:48]And golden set is And when the gods had sat down, then let egg carry into the whole floor shining gold.

[00:40:24]>> It was so bright and illuminated the hall like fire. And that was the light at his banquet. Just like in Valhalla, the slurs were used for fire.

[00:40:47]The hall of the gods yet and elves of egg is hall at a windshielded island that is the island of immortality is followed by the story of how Li insulted all the gods and goddesses in the hall. A reference to the Eda poem Lena.

[00:41:09]Then Li argued with all the gods and killed Agar's slave the one called Faenger quick supply. Another slave of Ages is called Edge or fire lighter.

[00:41:33]This is followed by an observation of how close death was in the form of egg's wife and daughters who hunted all who ventured onto the sea around this island of immortals.

[00:41:49]Ron robbery is named Ager's wife and there were their nine daughters as before has been told.

[00:41:59]At this banquet all things served itself both the food and the ale and all other things necessary for the feast. Then the air became aware that Ron owned a net with which she hunted all those men who traveled at sea.

[00:42:25]The conclusion to this chapter in Snow's book is an explanation of how gold may be poetically referred to as the fire or light or shine of the ocean and by all cover names for any sort of body of water.

[00:42:44]It says, "Now the story has been told to explain why gold is called the fire or the light or the shine of egg or of Ron or of the egg's daughters." And from these sayings, it is also true that gold is called the fire of the ocean and the fire of all the cover names for ocean such as a ocean, ron the ocean. And from this it is also true that gold may be called the fire of the waters or the fire of the rivers and by all the different rivers and by cover names for rivers.

[00:43:25]This observation of the powers of death is directly followed by a question about why gold is called the leaf of the crystal tree.

[00:43:39]London glass.

[00:44:00]some glass.

[00:44:12]So, chapter 42 from the crystal grove.

[00:44:24]Agit asked why is gold called the pines or the leaves of crystal.

[00:44:32]Bragi replied in Ocar before the door of Valhalla there is a grove called crystallized and its leaves are fully of red gold.

[00:44:46]So as hair is sung, crystal stands with golden leaves before the halls of victory god.

[00:45:00]>> This wood is the most beautiful among gods and men.

[00:45:10]The crystallized grove outside of Valhalla is followed by a question about why gold is referred to as the hair of Se.

[00:45:21]Se is Thor's wife and her name simply means kin's woman or female relative.

[00:45:30]The question is, of course, followed by the myth of how Luki stole the hair of the goddess and had to replace it with a wig of literal gold hairs. A story that also includes how the gods and goddesses received many of their main attributes such as Udin spare, Fra's bore, and so on, and also how Luki got his mouth soon shut.

[00:45:55]The main purpose of the story in this context is to explain another metaphor for gold, namely as the hair of the goddess Chapter 43 about the Smiths called the sons of Ialdi and about the dwarf Cindri why is gold called the hair of the kinswoman >> Braggi replied Li son of Leaf Island had made this harmful trick to cut off all the hair of thief.

[00:46:48]In the next chapter, chapter 44, Snowy lists numerous scaldic verses exemplifying how gold is referred to as Freya's weeping.

[00:46:59]Moving on to diverse kennings for the goddess Freya and how gold may be referred to not only as the tears but also as the rain, the hailstones, the drops and the showers and the waterfalls or the rivers of Freya's eyes or cheeks or brows or lashes.

[00:47:45]Fore sister phrase.

[00:48:15]Hankler a bro heck.

[00:48:52]After the explanations of gold as referring to the diverse liquids from the eye regions of the goddess, we move into the next chapter where we learn that gold is also called the speech or voice or words of the yatna. We are given some examples of poetry where this is the case. And then finally, Snoody moves on to the story of Sur of S girl water girl blend.

[00:50:03]of the otter atonement.

[00:50:06]What reason is there for this that gold is called the otter atonement replied this is said that the traveled to learn about the world and lit and h they came to a certain river and went along the river until they reached a waterfall and by the waterfall was an otter and it had taken a salmon out of the waterfall and ate it while sleeping, while being unaware.

[00:50:56]Then Lie picked up a stone and hurled it at the otter and hit his that it hit the otter's head. Then Lucy rejoiced about his hunting catch that he with one throw had secured both otter and salmon.

[00:51:13]They took the salmon and the otter and carried these with them.

[00:51:17]They came to a certain settlement and walked inside.

[00:51:45]And the resident farmer is so named Har which means next ocean or the great nest who lived there. He was a powerful character and very fur a great sorcerer possessing much knowledge.

[00:52:08]The AC asked for night shelter and said that they had with them a deal of food.

[00:52:15]And then they showed the resident their hunting catches.

[00:52:27]And when Harmar saw the otter, then he called his sons for the embracer and Regin the ruler and told them that Otter their brother had been killed and also who had done it. And now the father and sons went up against the air and took their arms and bound them and told them this about the otter that he was Harmar's son.

[00:53:05]The air asked for life release ransom for themselves. They offered so much treasure fair as Harmar himself wanted to demand and then that agreement was made between them and bound with oaths and pledges.

[00:53:26]Then the otter was flayed.

[00:53:29]Harmar took the otter skin and said to them that they should fill the skin with red gold ra and also cover the skin completely with gold and this would be their settlement.

[00:53:50]Then sent Li to the world of the black elves.

[00:54:00]And he came to that dwarf whose name is And the spirit alert or the breath alert or the breath awareness.

[00:54:14]He was a fish in the water. And Luke caught him in his hands and laid this fur, this life released, this this ransom on him that he would have to give up all that gold which he owned in his stone that is which he kept inside the rock where he lived.

[00:54:40]And when they came inside the rock, then the dwarf carried forth all the gold that he owned, and it was an excingly great treasure. The dwarf tried to hide away beneath his hand a small gold ring.

[00:54:59]Loki saw that and commanded him to show the ring. The dwarf asked him to not take the ring. For with it, with that ring, he could produce new treasure if he kept it.

[00:55:17]Luki said that he should not have even a penny left and took the ring from him and went outside. And the dwarf said that this ring should become the headbain, the hood Barney of everyone who owned it.

[00:55:34]Loki said that this seemed very well to him and said that he hoped that the curse would be valid and that he would let the next recipient of the ring hear all about it.

[00:55:49]Loki went away and came back to Harmar and showed the gold to Odin. And when he saw the ring, then it seemed beautiful to him. and Odin removed it from the treasure and then gave the gold to Haridmar.

[00:56:07]Then he filled the otter skin as much as he could and made it stand up when it was full. Then Udin went to cover the skin with the gold on the outside and then he spoke to Harmar and asked him to check if the skin was completely hidden by the gold.

[00:56:27]And Harmmer looked closely and thought that he saw a whisker stand out from the skin and demanded that it should also be hidden unless the settlement was broken.

[00:56:40]Then pulled out the ring and hid the whisker and said that now they were released from the utter atonement.

[00:57:10]And when Odin had taken his spare and Li his shoes, and they no longer had anything to fare, then said Lui that it would happen, as Unari had said, that this ring and that gold would become the bane. of those who owned it. And this curse since held.

[00:57:29]Now it is explained why gold is called the utter atonement or the need atonement of the gods or the metal of strife.

[00:57:48]Oh, summer ro m for mech.

[00:58:25]for drawings.

[00:58:43]Chapter 47 of Fner Regin and Seg asked, "What more is there to say about the gold?"

[00:58:56]Butterfly Braggi said Raidar took the gold as compensation payment and for asked for some of it as brother atonement. Rayma did not want to share with them even a penny of the gold.

[00:59:16]Then the brothers made this miscount, this unconsile, this unice, dishonorable criminal deed that they killed their father for the gold then. Megan asked Forner that he should divide the gold in half between them.

[00:59:46]Forner then answered that there was little hope for him to share the gold with his brother when he had killed his father for the same gold and told Regan to travel far away. Or else it could happen with him as it had happened to their father. Harmmer Forner had then taken the helmet that Harmmer had owned and put it onto his head and it was called the egg is hmer the helmet of terror since all living beings became fearful when they see it.

[01:00:26]And also the sword which is called the British one.

[01:00:32]had that sword which is called tapestry re. He fled away from there and forth went up to the guinea the hider the lous egg heath and made himself a lair there and took the likeness the hide of a serpent brum and laid himself on the gold orest.

[01:01:00]or Regin then traveled to Hol Per the help leader, king of greatness, king of jew and was made there his craftsman, his blacksmith.

[01:01:21]He that is then took to foster to apprentice Sigert son of Sigund son of Sun and also son of His daughter was the most famous the most splendid of all army kings. of lineage and of strength and of soul of huger of mind.

[01:01:57]Regin told him about where for laid on the gold and he urged him to seek the gold.

[01:02:28]Then forged that word which is called fury and it was so sharp that when Sig gur submerged it in running water it cut in half a piece of wool that passed by the sword's edge in the water Next cleaved revil all the way through with that word.

[01:02:54]Very sharp.

[01:03:03]for the gin.

[01:03:07]>> After this, Seg and Regin went up to the Laos egg heath. There Seger dug a pit in the path of Forner and sat himself down inside it. And when Forner slid down for water and moved about the pit, then Sigert laid the sword through him, and this was his bane.

[01:03:37]came then Rean and said that he Sigur had killed his brother and commanded this a settlement that Siger should take the heart of Forner and cook it by the fire. Then Rean laid down and drank the blood of Forner and then lay down to sleep.

[01:04:02]And Sig Gur roasted the heart. And when he thought it was fully cooked, he touched it with his finger to see how tough it was.

[01:04:14]And when the juice ran from the heart onto his finger, then he was burnt and he stuck his finger into his mouth. And as the hot blood of the serpent came onto his tongue, then he knew the speech of birds and could understand what the nuthatches said, those sitting in the tree.

[01:04:40]Then one of the birds said, Then one of the birds said, "There sit splattered with blood for this heart by the fire roast. Wise he would seem to me the rain spiller. If he the life muscle the heart of the viper ate a second bird for home.

[01:05:48]There lies and is plotting with himself.

[01:05:51]He wants to betray the foster son, the one who trusts him.

[01:05:59]In fury carries planned words together because the harms wants to avenge his brother.

[01:06:19]Then Siku went to Regin and killed him and then to his horse which is called GR and rode until he came to the lair of Fn took the gold and bound it in saddle packs and put it onto the back of Grani got up himself and rode onto his path.

[01:07:01]Now it has been explained what the story is behind this that the gold is called the lair or the settlement of forn or the metal of the lous egg heath or the burden of ground. Let me give Fore!

[01:07:36]Foreign! Foreign!

[01:08:05]Chapter 48 about Sigur and the Glings.

[01:08:12]Then Sigur rode until he found on the mountains a house. Inside there a woman was sleeping and she had helmet and Bernie.

[01:08:23]He used his sword and cut the Bernie off her. Then she woke up and said that she was Hilder battle. She is called Breen Hilder Bernie battle and she was a varia.

[01:08:46]Interestingly, Snoody leaves out all the details about Sigur's Alia. The teachings she offers, the guidance, the reason why she is sleeping, the shield wall that surrounds her, even the name Se Gerria are carefully omitted from Snory's version of the story.

[01:09:08]We learn that he wakes her by carving off her battle gear and that she is a valkyia called Hilder or Breen Hilder and no more is said about that part of the story which was elaborated in the Eda poem seeker driu mall. Here no councils are given as he leaves the valkyia.

[01:09:31]Even if Snotty must have been acquainted with this part of the narrative, he omits this part.

[01:09:38]Perhaps he believed that he would have to sensor this part lest it offend the Christian authorities.

[01:09:45]In the same way, he omitted the hanging of Udin and the burning of Guler.

[01:09:51]Glaring omissions that all point to pagan beliefs that the medieval church may have wanted people to forget.

[01:10:06]Seg rode from there and came to the king who was named Guyuki.

[01:10:12]His wife is named Grim Hilder which means masked battle. Their children were the sons Gar and Hny and the daughters Gud and Gnney. Gormer was Gi's stepson there. Sigur stayed for a long time. He had for wife Gunrun Gu's daughter swore brotherhood with Sig Gur.

[01:10:45]Next they traveled together Segur and the Gui sons to ask at Liissan for his sister Bin Hilder as wife to Gna. She sat on the hines mountain and about her hall was a deadly flame.

[01:11:06]>> And she had sworn this oath to only own that man who dared to ride through the deadly flame.

[01:11:16]Then rode sea g and the gllings. They are also called mistlings up to the mountain. And then should Gnar ride the deadly flame.

[01:11:31]>> He owned that horse which is called Gi.

[01:11:34]And that horse did not dare to run into the fire.

[01:11:39]They changed their appearances. Sigur and Gna and also the names since Gran did not want to be ridden by any other man than Sigur.

[01:11:49]Then seer on granny left and rode the deadly flame.

[01:11:56]That evening he went to have wedding with bin h.

[01:12:08]And when they came to bed, then he pulled the sword fury out of the sheath and placed it between them. And in the morning when he got up and got dressed then he gave to Breen Hill as linen treasure as a bridal morning gift the golden ring that Luki had taken from and from her hand he took another ring for memory.

[01:12:33]Sigur got on his horse and rode to his companions.

[01:12:37]He and Gunnar changed back to their ordinary appearances and went home to Gui with Binhilder.

[01:12:45]Sigur had two children with Good Sigund and Swan Hilder.

[01:13:04]Fore at home.

[01:13:28]There was a time that Breen Hilder and Goodr went to a river to bleach their hairs. When they came to the river, then Bri Hilter waded out into the river from land and said that she would not dip her head in that water which was running from Goodun's hair since she owned the better husband.

[01:13:49]Then Goodun went into the river after her and said that she would be the one to stand further upstream because she owned the man to which neither Gun nor anyone else was equal since he had killed for and taken heritage after them both.

[01:14:12]Then Bin Hilder replied, "It is more worth that Gar rode the deadly flame while Sig guru did not dare to then laughed Gun and said, "Do you think that Gar rode the deadly flame?"

[01:14:36]I think that the man who went to bed with you is the one who gave me this gold ring and the gold ring that you have on your hand and that you got for linen treasure. He is called that the ring is called the ring of antari the ring of breath awareness. And I think that it was not good who found that one on the Laos egg heath.

[01:15:05]Then Binhilder went silent and went home. After that she urged Gunnar and Hney to kill Sigur. And because they were oath sworn to Sigurer, they urged their brother Gut to kill Sigert.

[01:15:21]But former laid through sig with his word while sleeping.

[01:15:32]And when he received the mortal wound, then he siguru threw his sword fury after him so that it cut the man through in half. There fell Sigert and his three winter old son who was named Sigmund who they also killed.

[01:15:51]After that, Breen Hilder killed herself with a sword and she was burned with Siker and Garan Hny took the fourth new legacy and the ring of Andari and then ruled the lands.

[01:16:13]Snory opted for the version where Sigert is killed in his bed and that his baby boy is also killed in Eda poetry. This event is also happening outside in the forest grow or at parliament. So there were many versions at this point. Once more, Snory carefully omits every mention of the details about events following the death of Sigert. His widow Gunrun's grief, curses, and journey to the wilderness, where she learns to weave fate, are all events elaborated in Eda poetry, yet left out of Sny's version.

[01:16:52]The same is the case with the theme of Bin Hilder's grief and the bloody sacrifices made before her suicide or self-sacrifice and not the least her journey to the underworld to save Sigur out of hell.

[01:17:06]This part is also left out completely from Sny's version.

[01:17:11]My guess is that the elaborated descriptions of the feelings of women and the themes of underworld journeys, sorcery, human sacrifice and pagan versions of salvation that is resurrection from hell as they are found in Eda poetry may all have been deemed unsuitable for preservation.

[01:17:36]When Snory retold this story good rer chapter 50 the murder of the guings and good run's vengeance King Bud Lisson Bin Hilder's brother then had good for a wife whom Sigur had owned and they had children at the king invited to himself Gnar and Herney and they went to the home invitation and before they left home they hid the gold the fourth heritage in the river Rine and after that the gold has never been found and at the King had prepared his army and fought with Gunnar and Hergney and they were taken and bound.

[01:18:41]Utley let cut out Hergney's heart while he was still alive. That was his bane.

[01:18:53]Otly let Gunnar be thrown into the serpent pit. But in secret a harp was thrown to him, and he beat it with his toes since his hands were bound, and he played so with a harp that all the serpents dozed off, apart from one reptile. She ran against him and cut such a hole in his chest bones that she put her head inside and stuck fast to his liver, and from this he died.

[01:19:20]Garney are called mist lings and gings.

[01:19:35]For this reason, gold is called the treasure or heritage of the children of the mist.

[01:19:50]A little later, Gudun killed her two sons and let make drinking vessels decorated with gold and silver out of their skulls. Now was made a funeral feast for the mistlings.

[01:20:03]At this banquet, Goodrun let serve utly king the drinking vessels full of mead mixed with the blood of the boys. And she fried their hearts and made the king eat them. And when this was done, she told him all about it with many unloly words.

[01:20:26]There was no lack of strong drink there, so most of the people fell asleep as they sat there. In the night, she went in where the king slept, and with her was the son of Herney, and they attacked him with weapons, and this was his bane.

[01:20:42]Afterward they lit the hall with fire and all who were in there burned up.

[01:20:52]So Snotty opted for the version of the story where Goodun had the help of Hney's son when she killed Utley and burned down the hall. He moves through this part of the story in summarized manner.

[01:21:06]Snorik continued telling the story of how Goodrun tried to kill herself by drowning but was rescued by King Yunakir who married her. They had sons but Goodrun only truly loved her daughter by Sig Swan Hilder. When Swan Hilder was killed by a jealous husband, Yer Reer Goodrun sent her sons out to avenge their sister knowing that it was a suicide mission and in this way the lineage of the Ne longer vanished.

[01:21:40]While great parts of the story were only summarized in Snow's version, he elaborates quite detailed on this part of the story, concluding how the story of the brothers who died avenging their sister led to poetical sayings for armor, which could be referred to as the clothes of Hamir and Suri. These were the names of Goodrun's sons by Yun Aer.

[01:22:13]Snory added one part that is not I think mentioned in Eda poetry. It turns out that Sig guru had another daughter one called Oer a name which means divine cleansing and she was raised with which means the world in Dal which means the valley of tunes. And after her he says have come great lineages for world.

[01:23:01]Chapter 51 about the wandlings.

[01:23:04]After the young seeker lived a daughter whose name was divine cleansing, she was raised with the world at the valley of tunes. And after her have come great lineages in the world saga or's mother was the valkyia bin hilder and they had the child after sigures and binhilder/iga's encounter on the mountain in their youths before secret married good in another medieval source raar saga lud broker or grows up orphaned and protected by a man who plays a harp and hides her within it and she is called Croa the crow. She became the wife of Ragnar Ludroer and mother to many of his famous sons.

[01:24:00]The historical Ragnar Ludroer lived during the 8th or 9th centuries while all the other semihistorical characters in the sigur story derive from the fourth and fifth centuries. So the connection between Sigur's daughter and Ragnar Ludroer's third wife is obviously not very realistic.

[01:24:26]And with this we conclude this episode.

[01:24:29]In the next episode we are going to look at the vera saga and the old high German epic neon lead the children of the mist.

[01:24:43]Lord.

[01:25:10]Hey. You're higher.

[01:25:30]Oh yeah.
