niflheim

Niflheim ("Mistland") is the realm of ice and cold in Norse Mythology. It is located north of Ginnungagap and there dwells the Rimtursir and here is also Helgardh located. Niflheim is ruled by the goddess Hel, personally appointed by Odin to rule over Niflheim. Half of her face was normal, while the other half was completely blank. Niflheim was broken into several layers. One level was designed for heroes and gods, where Hel would preside over the festivities for them. Another was reserved for the elderly, the sick, and those who were unable to die gloriously in battle and enter Valhalla. The lowest level resembled the Christian version of Hell, where the wicked were forced to live forever.
