From the Eddic poem Grímnismál Odin says
Hugin and Munin
Fly every day
Over all the world;
I worry for Hugin
That he might not return,
But I worry more for Munin
Today, it’s well known that ravens are among the most intelligent animals on the planet. Even though the ancient Norse people didn’t have the sophisticated research we do today, they were still aware of these black birds’ intelligence.
So, it’s not at all surprising that the Allfather god Odin, himself often associated with wisdom and knowledge, was often accompanied by two ravens. In fact, many poems and legends specifically name Odin as the Raven-god or Raven-tempter (Hrafnaguð or Hrafnáss).
Heldom ’s music is inspired by the Nordic Viking history and has induced strength and positivity in thousands of listeners around the world with a blend of his imagination and creativity.
With experience and perspective that only time and miles can bring, Heldom ventures to bring an authentic and deep mix of Folk, Dark Inspired Viking Music, using real Viking instruments.
