"One great thing about Norse Mythos that sets it apart from others is the sheer mortality of their universe, every god knows of ragnarok and not just in the sense that the world must end. They all know who will fight who and who will die, they all know this and accept it. Another thing to note is how accepting of sacrifice they are, Odin did not start as all knowing and wise as he is in the mythos. He sacrificed alot to gain it, most notably giving up his eye.

I always found norse mythology very attractive for this fact, they all are prepared to meet inevitable desctruction without fear knowing death will come, so that great evils may be vanquished and the world reborn anew."
