Northern Viking Jewelry® Pendant Rune Thor Hammer
Thor’s Hammer:
The warship is waiting. The warrior king and his men sit in a half-circle around the blind storyteller of the village. The king takes Thor’s pendant from around his neck and hands it to the bard. “Tell us about the struggle of Thor, son of Odin, so as to fill my men’s hearts with courage,” the king says. The storyteller takes the pendant and closes his eyes. “I see everything again and shall tell it as it happened.” “Thor, son of Odin, sailed these seas with his men. Their ship reached the open sea, and the waves were as high as a stone circle. A sudden calm fell upon the skies and waves. The sea was like newly blown glass. Then everything began boiling. The sun darkened, and from the depths of the sea rose Midgårdsormen, a great snake that coiled its enormous body around the ship. The men grabbed their swords without fear. But the most fearless of all was Thor, who laid hold of his hammer Mjölner. Thor bellowed powerful words. Suddenly, the sky darkened but was lit up by lightning bolts everywhere at once. Thor was now in possession of all the powers of the sky and storm. He used the power of the thunder to defeat the snake, making armour for his men from its skin. Thor’s power lies in this pendant. Wear it proudly and without fear.”
Helm of Awe:
When fog surrounds the ship, the warriors stop singing and the dice are left to roll under the boards. They glance at the watchman, whose gaze is fixed on a shadow approaching from the fog. The shadow pierces the fog and reveals itself to be a ship. “Grab your weapons,” the watchman cries. The warriors don their helmets and draw out their swords, raising them before lowering them almost immediately. “Curses, the ship is empty!” the warlord bellows. They leave their swords in their scabbards and rise to rob the ghost ship. The chief goes below deck, where he finds an open chest containing spices. As the chief kneels to smell the intoxicating stash, he hears shouting from the deck. At the same moment, the lid of the chest slams shut. The chief stands and brandishes his sword against the darkness. There is nobody to be seen, but he senses that someone is looking at him. The floorboards are creaking closer and closer to him. The chief has time to whisper “Helm of Awe...” before a familiar sign painted on the shield of the approaching warrior appears from nowhere.
