THE MEAD OF POETRY: KVASIR'S MURDER AND ODIN'S THEFT (NORSE MYTH)
Kvasir was so wise he could answer anything. Two dwarfs killed him, drained his blood, and brewed it into the drink that makes poets. In Norse mythology, the gods spat into a vat and birthed Kvasir, the wisest being alive. The dwarfs Fjalar and Galar murdered him, mixed his blood with honey, and made a mead that granted poetry to anyone who drank it. The giant Suttung seized it and hid it inside a mountain, guarded by his daughter Gunnlod, until Odin bored through the rock with an auger, took three nights and three swallows, and flew off as an eagle, spitting most of the mead into the gods' vessels and the rest behind him in a graceless splash. That is why the Norse called bad verse the 'eagle's share,' and why the gift of poetry was said to be stolen, blood-bought, and never quite clean. The Norse myth of the Mead of Poetry: murder, theft, and the bloody price of inspiration.
