Ragnarok

30nama.best Presents

Chaos Monsters

Common name for a group of beasts in Norse mythology,

that teamed up with the giants and fought against the gods.

The most known are the Midgard serpent, the Fenrir wolf and the Hellhound.

Note:

I'm not sure what happened yesterday. They gave me something.

What was in that mead?

I lost control.

What was it I saw in that mirror?

Vidar, no.

Yes. War council.

Shouldn't there be a war first?

We agree that there hasn't been one like him for a thousand years.

You don't even know what he is yet.

No, but we all know he can do things humans can't do.

Therefore he's from the Old World.

You think he's one of them?

That's impossible. They all died back then.

It was a huge battlefield, total chaos.

Since the great battle there hasn't been anyone other than us.

No, but now they're back. And that calls for action.

All eyes are on us.

We must know who and what he is, before we do anything.

The axe waits for you to choose a side, Fjor.

Just like back then.

What if he's like us?

Then he'd be the closest ally we've ever had.

I suggest we figure that out, before we go to war.

He's just a boy, Vidar.

EPISODE 4 GINNUNGAGAP

So tell me, how was it? How do they live?

-Nice. Fancy. -Ah.

Yeah, they're Norway's sixth richest family,

or fifth I think, they said it on TV once.

We're talking about the dinner yesterday.

Were there many guests or just you?

Just us.

So...?

Just needed some air.

What did they wear?

Was it very formal or a bit more on the casual side?

Actually, she's never really very casual...

But did you have a good time?

Yeah.

She's gonna find out about it anyway.

I got a little drunk yesterday, Mom.

Hmm?

I got a little drunk.

Were you drinking?

Yeah, they served, uh, wine and booze and champagne and...

-Mead. -Mead? Are you kidding me?

Yeah, but, Mom, don't forget that they're so much more international.

Just 'cause they live in a little dump in Norway, doesn`t mean that they...

And so what if Magne had a bit too much?

Mead. Norse mythology.

EDDA SECONDARY SCHOOL

Turid? Do we have an appointment?

Yes. I think it's time for one right now.

I just wanted to know if it's true that you got Magne drunk last night?

No, he managed that without our help.

But you actually did serve alcohol at the dinner, right?

A glass of good wine with the meal, yes, we did serve that.

And champagne and tequila?

-No, that's... -And mead!

You know it's strictly against the law, right, to serve alcohol to minors?

Yeah, you could also see it as a good thing

to introduce it to our youth under safe conditions.

Mm-hmm. Or we could just settle on you taking care of Magne' education,

while I take care of raising him. That's worked out great so far.

Has it?

I seem to recall that some weeks ago you sat in that chair

and told me how badly it's gone so far.

Let's get one thing clear.

Magne is my son and I know him very well.

He's kind, and he's got a good heart.

And you should not underestimate him.

You did something to me, when we arrived here.

It's always been within you. I just opened your eyes.

But what's going on?

I saw myself in the mirror yesterday.

I didn't look like myself.

-I looked like... -Thor.

Thor? But I'm not Thor!

Magne, humans have always been afraid of the dark,

of the violent forces of nature,

and of, of injustice.

What you saw gives you an opportunity, a chance to act.

What happens next is something you decide through your own actions.

The giants are still here.

They are destroying the world while the humans stand by and watch.

And no one has had the courage to take up the fight against them, yet.

Gry! What's going on? I've sent you loads of texts and...

Aren't you getting them or what?

Sure I am, but I thought you might just move on to the next one in line.

Hey!

You just sat there, while they were giving me shit.

Well, everybody, it's soon time for our traditional mountain trip

for the upperclassmen.

Three days in the wild with full gear.

We're going to this mountain, which is called Ginnungagap.

Can somebody tell me what Ginnungagap means? Aicha.

In the creation myth of the Vikings

Ginnungagap is the place where cold and warm meet,

-and the world was created. -Yes!

Very good, Aicha. Who was it, who then populated this earth?

A mix of gods and giants.

That's correct, Laurits,

and if you'd raised your hand that would have been ten points.

- - So, gods and giants.

We have read the story of Thor,

how he was tested at the giants' house

when they made him drink mead.

But who were the giants?

Hilde.

Weren't they sort of like trolls? Like the bad guys of the story.

No, that's like a totally lopsided depiction.

For ages the giants were regarded as gods.

People worshipped them and sacrificed everything they had to them.

Even animals that were alive.

Until eventually they were pushed aside by the so-called "gods".

Yes, very good, Saxa.

But was there anything,

or should we say anyone, whom these giants were afraid of?

Those were the hottest hits this afternoon.

-Hi. -Hi!

Let's see. I'd like three double cheese burgers,

one with an extra patty with extra cheese.

Lots and lots of bacon. And half a grilled chicken.

And three large fries and three cokes, please.

- So just the usual? -Hmm.

Thanks.

-Hi. -Hi! How are you doing?

Well... I manage, I guess.

I heard you're all going hiking...?

Yes, up to the...

How's that going to be for you?

Well, it's going to be, uh...

Isolde and I went up there a lot when she was little,

so there are lots of memories.

All the secret places we had...

So it'll probably be pretty awful.

Wanna go to my place and work?

Sure.

Magne!

I've tested the blood sample you gave me.

And you were completely right. There were two different types of blood.

Hmm.

The blood on the front was Isolde's.

And that on the hood?

An animal's. Can you help me read the rest?

Good morning!

So, listen up, uh, everybody.

Starting today, we'll have a new student joining us in our class.

This pretty young lady here, who's, uh...

Iman.

Yes. We have an opening, because, uh...

Uh, maybe you know Aicha?

Why would I know Aicha?

So anyway, uh, we have a vacant seat there,

so please take a seat over there, okay?

-New, uh, new girl. -Iman.

-Uh, yes. Im-Iman. -

Today we'll go through the main arguments of your assignments

We'll go by groups.

Um, Gry and Magne, you're up first.

Yes.

Even though Norway has strong democratic traditions and institutions,

uh, it's still the large enterprises and capital interests

that have the biggest impact on our society.

More than we might notice at first.

Uh, for instance, one community could be entirely dependent

on a single enterprise due to all of the jobs it has created and...

Seriously? Are we going to blame the rich again?

I'm sorry... You know we have big environmental problems here. Right?

And still nothing happens. Nobody does anything.

Even though there are hazardous discharges

we see the mayor shake hands with your father on Edda's welcome-brochure.

Can I? Please?

What you're saying is correct, but it's only correct up to a point.

Because it's progress we are concerned about.

And progress has always been perilous.

Once we were freezing, so we made fires, right?

Sure, sometimes our houses burned down, and sometimes even whole villages.

But we would never revert to the life we had without fire.

Same thing goes for cars.

Hundreds of people die in traffic every year. Every single year!

So we make safer and safer cars. We don't go back to horses and carriages.

Do you even know that people are sick?

There are unemployed defeated people walking our streets,

but you don't care, even though it's because of you.

Yeah, of course I know.

They have contributed what they could to progress.

Someone has to lead the way.

What do you mean, "contributed to progress"?

My dad lies at home seriously ill because of it.

You couldn't care less and we don't get a single Crown in compensation!

So this is actually about your father?
