I love how this is technically a pretty myth accurate version of Fenrir, since originally he wasn't even a bad guy. He was good friends with Tyr and liked living with the Aesir, it only went wrong because Odin was scared of Fenrir's power as he continued to grow bigger and bigger. Once again, Odin fulfilled Ragnarok by trying to stop it.

[@ladygrey7425]

Correct. The Eddas go out of their way to show you how the faults of the gods (Odin's paranoia, Thor's anger, Loki's mischievousness, Frigg's overprotectiveness, etc) will end up causing the downfall they were trying so hard to prevent. For example, the way Odin treats Jormungand and Fenrir in particular enrages Loki, who then gets revenge by manipulating Hod into slaying Balder (with the mistletoe arrow referenced in GOW '18}. Odin and Frigg consider this a grave betrayal, and bound Loki to a rock underneath a spitting serpent. Ragnarok will happen when Loki and his children will break free of their bonds and lead the jotun and the draugr to fight the Aesir, Vanir, elves, and Einherjar on the battle plain of Vigrid, where most will be slain, and the world submerged in ice and fire before all is reborn.

[@RaptorJesus]

It gets worse when you realize that the only reason Fenrir agreed to be chained with the special bonds at all was because he trusted Tyr. To get him to agree to it, Tyr told him that if they do not release him that Fenrir could have his arm. They did not realease him, and Tyr kept his word.

[@fiddlesticks7245]

[@fiddlesticks7245]

@@RaptorJesus The entire theme of Norse mythology is that Odin's efforts to stop Ragnarok are what directly leads to it occurring, he's powerless to stop the fate the Norns have wove yet he tries anyways.

He seemed really depressed and quiet, when he knew Atreus was going to leave and Fenrir himself has to move to Angrboda. And when he does show his happy side, it's only when Atreus is around. This shows so much of how Atreus and Fenrir grew together as boys. They both love each other so much and Fenrir just wanted to spend as much time with Atreus when he was revived by Atreus, but since Atreus can't, due to a prophecy that he must find other giants, Fenrir seemed really sad and quiet about it.

Let me give you the abridged version. Loki's triplets were split up at birth. Jormungand was thrown into Midgard where he grew large enough to encircle the entire world. The half-undead Hel went to Helheim, becoming the goddess of the dishonorable dead. Fenrir was still in Asgard, but Odin feared the wolf as he grew up. The overgrown dog was able to break any chain put on him. Eventually, the dwarves were told by Odin to create the chain Gleipnir, and Odin tried to trick Fenrir into willingly letting Gleipnir tie him up. Expecting treachery, Fenrir agreed to the condition that one of the gods would put their hand in his mouth. Tyr, being the bravest, volunteered. When the wolf was unable to break his chain, he bit off Tyr's hand. Yeah I definitely prefer good boi Fenrir.

[@Law-of-EnTropy]

Mimir mentions that there are four parts to a soul: form, mind, direction and luck. When Atreus accidentally pulled Fenrir's soul to his knife, only one of them went to the knife. The other three continued on, prolly in Helheim or maybe the Light in Alfheim (I forgot how death works in the in-game universe). I wonder if the three missing parts of Fenrir's soul were compensated by Garm's own when Atreus transferred Fenrir's into Garm. I wonder if the one part that remained of Fenrir's soul was the mind. That'd would make logical sense, since Fenrir did in fact overtake Garm's consciousness. With that in mind (heh), Fenrir is pretty much riding on Garm's form, direction and luck. Which makes even more sense, since Fenrir has all access to Garm's extra-dimensional abilities.

[@ladygrey7425]

Yes. The devs really did their research here. The Norse did not believe in the concept of an indivisible soul like Christians do. Form, or "hamr", is basically what we physically see. Many gods, such as Odin, are able to change their hamr into various animal shapes, such as eagles or bears. Mind, or "hugr", is our consciousness. When Odin sends out his ravens, he is literally sending out manifestations of his mind to astral travel. This is a key component of shamanistic practices, especially seidr. Direction is "fylgja". Your direction usually takes the form of an animal familiar in dreams, and it's basically your "gut instinct" or your moral compass. And finally, luck, or "hamingja" Now, luck here isn't what we think of luck today, which is more a synonym for random chance. Luck in the heathen worldview means what spiritual and genetic traits and desires you've inherited from your ancestors. For example, if your family has a history of military service, chances are you will be unconsciously drawn to it as well.
