Gods and Goddesses: Balder

A.K.A. : The kind of god everyonew had crushes on. I mean, before he DIED.

Home: Asgard, Niflheim

Family: Nana, Odin, Frigg

Other: Balder had dreams about being killed, and told Frigg. She made everything, BUT MISTLETOE, promise not to hurt Balder. The gods enjoyed a game, involving throwing things at Balder to prove he could not be hurt. Loki became jealous, and tricked the blind god, Hod,  into killing Balder. Loki figured out that mistletoe had not promised, and came up with an idea. He asked Hod why he wasn't playing with the other gods, and Hod answered he couldn't see where Balder was, and he had nothing to throw. Loki gave him a dart of mistletoe, and directed his aim to Balder. When Hod's dart hit Balder's heart, he died instantly.

                                                     THE END. Well, not really, but that's where I like it to end.
