WORLD, what it means to us? ... continue ... part 4

WOTAN (grandson of BURE, son of BOR, the father of all the gods) LOOK down ON the EARTH;
it had CHANGED GREATLY since he and his brothers has made it. The SEAS were now CLEAR,
the LAND was RICH, and the CHILDREN, GRANDCHILDREN, GREAT-GRANDCHILDREN
and GREAT-GREAT-GRANDCHILDREN of "ASK" and "EMBLA" LOOKED AFTER THE
EARTH,  FAITHFULLY.
"These humans that we have created have done well," WOTAN (grandson of BURE, he was freed by a sacred cow from one of the blocks of ice)  told the other gods.
"I should like to build a BRIDGE BETWEEN AS-GARD (Universe) and MID-GARD (earth). Some of the HUMANS are as courageous as gods, they FIGHT BRAVELY. When they FALL in BATTLE the VALKYRIES shall bring them to AS-GARD where the EARTH' s HEROES can SHARE
VALHALLA (palace at the centre of the Universe) with US." WOTAN said to the other gods.

The VALKYRIES were a RACE of WARRIOR MAIDENS who lived with the gods. They RODE magnificent HORSES which COULD FLY through the AIR. They WORE SILVER ARMOUR and
WATCHED OVER SOLDIERS OF MID-GARD (earth).

All the GODS AGREED and a great ARCHING BRIDGE WAS CREATED that stretched from
AS-GARD (Universe) TO  MID-GARD (earth). It was CALLED the BIFROST and SHIMMERED
with COLOUR.  Only on CERTAIN DAYS could it be SEEN, and THEN ONLY when the VALKYRIE maidens were CARRYING one of the HEROES of EARTH (Mid-gard) to an ETERNAL LIFE IN VALHALLA (place at the centre of the Universe).

Now that AS-GARD (Universe) and MID-GARD (earth) WERE JOINED, a grave problem arose.
THERE WERE RACES OF GIANTS LIVING ON THE EARTH and they were jealous of the gods.
