Freya tells Mimir what son of Thamur whispered to her | God of War Ragnarok

[@cookiekingdom6911]

I like how they altered this story to fit the game's lore. In the original, the giant wanted Freya's hand, (A common occurrence, it seems). No one really wanted that though, (least of which was Freya herself), so Loki transformed into a mare and seduced the mason's horse to distract him and make it so he lost the bet, when the mason found out, he transformed into his true giant form and began attacking, but was quickly dispatched by Thor. Loki then gave birth to Odin's 8-legged horse, Sleipnir. Obviously, since Atreus is Loki and this even presumably happened long ago, the story can't be the same, so I feel like this is a good compromise.

[@toobig7399]

Odin: Alright, i really didn't expect him to be this successful in building the wall, any ideas how to stop him? Loki: I have a plan! Odin: Oh, great, what is it? Loki: First, I am going to get fucked by his horse. Odin: ...

[@Rebisandtheband]

Good to know that they didn't stray too far away from the original story. I'm sure Atreus wouldn't be too happy giving birth to a mutant horse...or Kratos, for that matter. Could you imagine?...just- just imagine how such a situation would happen? Krato: Boy! What did you do!?... Atreus:..*Mumbles* fug-a-hurs-on-acint. Krato: WHAT- Atreus: Fucked a horse on accident! Kratos: HOW DO YOU "FUCK A HORSE" -

[@cookiekingdom6911]

@@Rebisandtheband Well, considering who Kratos' father is, I don't think he'd find it that weird. Might be a bit concerned due to his son's age (Although, considering ancient Greece, maybe not), but he wouldn't be concerned about the shapeshifting childmaking.

The real question, is did Odin have Thor kill him because he knew he was a giant all along or just out of petty spite losing a bet? Both seem possible…

[@cantstopthepun]

@@isaiahgeorge906 Honestly, I kinda like that that they did that. Don't get me wrong every single time Sindri cut Atreus off during the final fight was a stab to the heart but it just goes to show how much sacrifice was needed to take down Odin. Not everyone leaves unscathed and relationships get broken

[@chibill467]

I do wonder, was that really a flaw only Surtr was meant to know or he said that knowing only at Ragnarok it would be used, thus Odin not actually screwing the Dwarves to fix it?

Mimir sounds like us the player who knows the story in GOW 2018 and interjecting the actually facts of the story if someone made a mistake.

[@JV-km9xk]

so he told surtr about "the plan"

[@AggressiveLearner007]

More likely he knows what surtr is capable of, and build flaws on the walls according to surtr's capabilities.

[@th3ra83]

In original myth the Giant wants to have Freya as his wife in exchange for the bet if he win. And he was killed for his rage for the God's deception. But seeing it in this version seems like he just want to setting up the stage and seek a person which experience the Gods's debauchery and tell them the trigger for the setup instead wanting to genuinely marry Freya. I think in this version he just bow down and back off and live instead of following his rage and die at Thor's Hand. It is kinda astounding how they setup the Giants to have an intelligent response to deal with Odin's madness. And the fact Odin or the Aesir itself cannot truly exterminated the Giants since they moved to another realm already by now and untrackable by Odin or the other Gods.

[@garrettjackson1451]

And the giants in this version are a peaceful race

[@eviethewinterwitch8370]

"Blast it" Funny nuff Mimir that is the key, unfortunately during ragnarok but Surtr was never asked where the wall should be hit anyway :D so it kinda worked

[@xxx_jim_the_reaper_xxx]

The walls of Asgard that is built by Hrimthur may look like they are very strong for an outsider but when the time came in for Surtr to invade Asgard, some of the walls are actually weak enough to be destroyed by him, hence the *Flaw.*

True

[@DomionShorter]

If thamur's Son was the one to build that wall and disguise himself to reach Asgard. Wouldn't that mean that the soul atreus put in the snake was the Son's soul. It would explain how jorum came to Asgard even though he never followed kratos into the portals also mimir pointed and asked how he got here. I could be wrong though

[@sythrus]

Oh, thats a good point!

[@ekamandalaputra5517]

That's a good theory

[@kratos57]

the snake was in jotenhiem all along and when the realm doors opened in the finale he came through as well, I am certain of it

[@DomionShorter]

@@kratos57 well if he was in jotenhiem then ig that would make sense its his homeland so I'm sure he would know where the gate is. Then how did he get so big so quickly. Is it's the snake's body or the giant soul in it projecting a giants Characteristics. You know when a soul goes into a different body the new body takes on the characteristics of the soul. That's what I thought anyways.

[@jkm7983]

Freya "and the giant whispered softly into my ear, sweet nothings. I was surprised when I heard his words. He built a wall only for him to say those two words? When he pulled back, he had this immensely satisfying smile upon his face. I didn't think anything of it until Odin asked me what the giant said. I told my husband what he said and he didn't believe me. He tried and tried to get me to tell him what happened and I answered truthfully every time. Odin grew enraged and paranoid. His suspicion grew to anger. The man I grew to love started to reveal his true nature and as a result, I was banished and sentenced to solitude in Midgard. That is when I realized the giant's true motivation. He knows Odin's paranoia would drive him into destroying our love. All that work, for him to say two words, that was enough to have his revenge
