Welcome to Muspelheim! Did everyone remember to bring some Sudocrem and blister plasters? Good, because this place is hot hot hot! And we’re not talking Miami hot, we’re talking literal flames.
One of the Nine Worlds in Norse mythology, Muspelheim features in both the creation myths of the world and its downfall. This realm is home to the fire giants, and guarded by Surtr, who has a big flaming sword.
Make sure you don’t get on his bad-side by mispronouncing the name of the realm (it’s pronounced “MOO-spell-hame”, in case you didn’t know.) The etymology of the name isn’t certain, but is believed to come from “Mund-spilli”, meaning “world destroyers” or "wreck of the world".
