Ragnarok is the 22nd of Feb.

[Steerpike]

What are your plans for the coming apocalyptic battle of the viking gods and the nine worlds of the cosmos?

[DylanW18]

Odin is way cooler than Quetzalcoatl

[PapaBudz]

Just read up on it. Pretty interesting. I'm just going to chill and watch the date fly by.

RAGNAROK AND REVOLUTIONIZE
GIMME JUST A MINUTE WHILE I CLARIFY

[Mikefrompluto]

Since we're on the Vikings subject, I highly recommend everyone to watch this movie:

It's about how Vikings were supposedly the first outlanders to come to North America, and there's black metal on the soundtrack.

Well, as a lover of Norse mythology it's nice to see it get some attention. It'd be nicer if it were more accurate (for example, the website posted mentions the death of Odin by the Fenris Wolf, when it doesn't really happen that way. Odin revives the soul of a very unhappy witch and forces her to tell him visions of the future (Ragnarok). She tells him Fenrir will kill him, but it's a lie. The wolf slays his son instead. Odin hunts Fenrir down and the great Fenris Wolf meets it's end.
(Edit: I swear I read it that way, but double checking now I'm reading it that Odin is indeed swallowed by the wolf, and his son slays it. I thought it was the other way around, but I guess I was wrong. I should fact check before I say someone is inaccurate and not after, now I feel like an ass lol)

Yeah, everything that happens during the Ragnarok is already chronicled. I will, however be on the lookout for an unstoppable Giant rising from the ocean with a flaming sword as bright as the sun. Because if Surtr shows up, then sure, I'll start crapping myself.

I leave you with these:


Amon Amarth
Destroyer Of The Universe

I rise up from muspelheim
My fury is sublime
The sword I bring burns violently
With wild and lethal flames

I march against the asagods
To bring the end of time
I am pure and endless pain
And Surtur is my name

See me rise, the mighty Surt
Destroyer of the universe
Bringer of flames and endless hurt
Scorcher of men and earth

[Solo: Södenberg]

Swordless frej with horn in hand
Rises to his final stand
He doesn't stand a single chance
I'll split his living corpse in half

And yet he stabbed me in the eye
He drove the horn in deep
The overwhelming, raging pain
Is driving me insane

The waves of flames that
I've unleashed will eat us all alive
The rage that burns within my heart
Is uncontrolled and wild
And now everything shall die!
Massive waves consume us all, the ocean is released
Our dying world quakes underneath
And sinks into the sea
And now nothing will survive!
Extinction waits for everyone
For gods and men alike
When all are gone of the old world
A new one will arise

[Solo: Södenberg]

See me rise, the mighty Surt
Destroyer of the universe
Bringer of flames and endless hurt
Scorcher of men and earth

See me die, the mighty Surt
Destroyer of the universe
Drowning in waves that floods the earth
The beginning, of a new rebirth

[PapaBudz]

Wow. I'm willing to participate for a worldly rebirth.

[Gorzo]

Wow. I'm willing to participate for a worldly rebirth.

Unfortunaly only Líf and Lífthrasir survive for that part. They are the only two humans to survive Surtr's flames, hiding inside the World Tree when he burns the entire Earth.

[PapaBudz]

Oh... So... How do you plan on spending your last days?

[Galabranth]

Play some magic I guess.

[Ertai]

This is hilarious.

[Apathy Reactor]

i'm gonna start putting the finishing touches on my latest jaeger. honestly, how many times do i have to save the earth in giant robots and hide it from the public? i remember doomsday 2013 like it was just last year...

[Steerpike]

Hahaha
Such a good name for a giant robot

[Galabranth]

Just saw something that there is possibility that a major solar electro-magnetic wave would hit earth, rendering technology (most) useless and unusable. I heard that every 150 years or so the wave hits.

Must suck for the MTGO players. Hooray for paper!
