_{↳ niflheim}

_{As the Norse realm of ice and cold, Niflheim had two native species: the Niflungar and the Hrímthursar. Being one of the two primordial realms, Niflheim played a large part in the creation of all things when its nine rivers of ice mixed with Muspelheim’s nine rivers of fire and created water. Later, Niflheim became the abode of Loki’s daughter Hel and the afterlife realm for those who did not die an honourable death in battle.}
