Surtr

Surtr is the towering fire giant and ruler of Muspelheim in Norse mythology, wielding a flaming sword brighter than the sun. He leads the fire giants during Ragnarök, setting the world ablaze and slaying Freyr (who gave away his sword for love). Surtr embodies ultimate destruction, burning the cosmos in flames as part of the apocalyptic cycle. His role symbolizes the fiery end of the world and the inevitability of renewal through cataclysm. In prophecies, Surtr's flames consume everything, paving the way for a new world, representing the destructive force of fire and the balance of creation and annihilation in Norse cosmology.
