Lore

Huginn (Thought) and Muninn (Memory) are Odin's two ravens in Norse mythology, flying daily across the world to gather news and knowledge, returning to whisper it on his shoulders. Odin fears their failure to return, as they represent his wisdom and insight. The ravens symbolize the power of intellect and recollection, essential for the Allfather's rule. In myths, they scout for Odin, embodying vigilance and the pursuit of knowledge. Huginn and Muninn reflect Norse values of wisdom and the anxiety of losing understanding in a chaotic cosmos.
