Just want Asgard?
Far away, past the clouds, a guard named Heimdall stood on a sparkling rainbow bridge. He watched over a magical, golden city that floated high in the sky. This is the story of that city, the myth of Asgard.
Asgard was the home of the gods, a place full of bright light and happy sounds. The great god Odin lived in a big, big hall with a shiny silver roof. From his big chair, he could see everything. His son, Thor, was very strong and very kind. When Thor swung his hammer, it made a big, booming sound. BOOM. BOOM. Down on Earth, people heard the sound and called it thunder. The city was always filled with music and yummy food, a happy, shiny place that glowed brighter than all the stars.
Long, long ago, people told stories about Asgard to feel brave and strong, just like Thor. They imagined a beautiful, safe home for the gods high in the sky. This made them feel hopeful. Today, the story of Asgard helps us imagine amazing worlds. We see it in movies and read it in books. It reminds us to look up at the big, big sky and wonder about magical things.
