Of the Frost Giants


Frost giants rose with the breath of life but fled from the All Father for his words pained them. Naarheit gathered them up and brought them to the edge of the cold winds that blew in the north. There he set them in a home beyond the world of Aihrde but confined to it, so that ever after they dwelt upon the "Edge of Winter." They are a slothful people, evil and foul tempered. They dwell there where Naarheit set them until they learned that they could ride the backs of storms and plunder the wealth of others. So it was that blizzards and snow storms that brought ruin to many a home, often brought the frost giants and their own brand of terror. They dwell Upon the Edge of WinterThere where they have built houses of ice and snow and where they store all the plunder and booty of their lives.
