The greatest heroes, kings and howding, chosen by a special fate after death, they live in the interior of the Mountain. There, among the constant feasts and games, they wait for a sign, to stand up for his countrymen in a moment of danger. Hel has no power over these.
On the east, where the mountains go down to the sea, lies Jotunheim, the kingdom of Thurs - Frost Giants. Three swift rivers with icy waters separate it from the Midgard. It is a mountainous country and inaccessible. There are eternal frosts and blizzards here, and dense darkness and fog prevent the sun from entering this land. The terror emanates from her and you can feel the breath of death. Man avoids this place far. Only a few, the boldest heroes plunge into Thurs's sovereignty. The gods also try to avoid Jótunheim. One Thor does nothing of danger and haunts the land of giants, to put an end to the evil that prevails there. On the east, an impenetrable forest grows on the border with Midgard, called Jarnwider (The Iron Forest). A giantess lives here, from which comes the tribe of wolves. Her eldest son, the wolf Mansgarmr (Moon Eater) it is the terror of the border parts of Midgard. It feeds on humans and often swallows the moon, blood condensing the sky. There are also giantesses here - evil witches, terrible witches casting charms on people and cattle. The mighty giant Hraeswelg lives in the far north. It flies over human settlements in the form of an eagle and brings with it a great wind, destroying homes and sinking ships at sea.
In the middle of Jotunheim, where they keep the most severe frosts and sorcery have the greatest power, hidden from the Asami veil of magic lies Utgard. A great sorcerer lives here, the giant of Utgardaloka, also known as Skrymir. The greatest spells are done here, and the greatest power is the giants. Only once did Thor go to this country, but when the giants came to know his strength and might, omamiwszy go czarami, even deeper in the magical power they hid Utgard. The magic is gone, when the day of ragnarok comes, when all fetters, both real and invisible, are broken.
In Thrymheim, Thizy's court was in the mountains, Storm Giant. He was the most powerful of Thurs, before Thor killed him.
