And welcome to Sleep Cove with me, Christopher Fitten.
Tonight we have an extra episode this week.
A short Norse mythology story called
Odin tells DeVidaar his silent son,
the secrets of his doing.
So please get comfortable in bed, and let's begin.
From the book, The Children of Odin,
Odin tells Vidaar his silent son, the secret of his doings.
It was not only to giants and men that Odin showed himself in the days
when he went through Yottenheim and Midgard as vegans.
The Wanderer, he met and spoke with the gods or so, with one who lived far away from Asgard,
and with others who came to Midgard and to Yottenheim. The one who lived far away from Asgard was Vidar,
Odin's silent sun, far within a wilderness, with branches and tall grass growing up,
Around them, Vidar sat by him a horse grazed with a saddle upon it, a horse that was ever ready for the speedy journey.
And Odin, now Vetchedem the wanderer, came into that silent place and spoke to Vidar, the silent god, Ovidar, he said,
strangest of all my sons
God who will live when all of us has passed away
God who will bring memory on the dwellers of Asgard
into a world that will know not their power
Ovidar well do I know
why their grazes near thee
their horses ever ready for the speedy journey
It is that thou mayst spring upon it and ride and checked,
A son speeding to avenge his father.
To you only, Ovidar, the silent one,
When I speak of the secrets of my doings,
Who but you can know why I, Oden,
The eldest of the gods,
hung on the tree of Yedrusil
nine days and nine nights
my own spear
transfixing me
I hung upon that windy tree
that I might learn the wisdom
that would give me power
on the ninth night
the roots of wisdom appeared
before mine eyes
and slipping down from the tree
I took them to myself
and I shall tell you why my ravens fly to thee, carrying in their beaks scraps of leather.
It is that thou mayst make for thyself a sandal. With that sandal,
on thou mayest put thy foot on the lower jaw of the mighty wolf and rent him,
or the shoemakers of the earth, throw,
on the ground, scraps of the leather they use so that thou mayst be able to make the sandal,
for thy wolf, rendering foot, cancelled, the dwellers on earth, to cut off the fingernails
of their dead from those fingernails and toenails and toenails. The giants make for themselves
the ship Nagflare, in which they will sail for, from the tail.
From the north on the day of Ragnorok, the twilight of the gods.
Morvidar, I will tell to thee, I, living amongst men, have wed the daughter of a hero.
My son shall live as a mortal amongst mortals.
Sigi, his name will be.
From him shall spring heroes who will fill Valhalla, my own hall in Asgard.
with heroes against the day of our strife, with the giants and with Surtur of the flaming sword.
For long, Odin stayed in that silent place, communing with his silent son,
with Fadar, who with his brother would live beyond the lives of the dwellers of Asgard,
and who would bring into another day and another world,
the memory of the Azeir and the Veneer.
For long Odin spoke with him, and then he went across the wilderness,
where the grass and the bushes grew, and where that horse grazed in readiness for the sudden journey.
He went towards the seashore, where the Azeir and the veneer were now gathered for the feast,
that old Ikea, their giant king of the sea, had offered them.
