The Forging of Mjǫllnir · Norse Mythology Sleep Story · 3 Hours

Tonight, a wager in the dark under the mountains. Loki, having cut the golden hair from Thor's wife while she slept, must replace it, and to do so he sets the finest dwarven smiths against one another. Out of their forge come a ship that folds into a pocket, a spear that never misses, a ring that makes more of itself, and a short handled hammer that will become the most famous object in all the nine worlds. A slow, warm story of craft and mischief. Drift off beside the forge.Chapters:0:00 Welcome1:55 Chapter 1. Thor, the God of the Hammer11:34 Chapter 2. Sif and the Golden Hair20:58 Chapter 3.
