Þat er upphaf þessar søgo at Baldr inn góða dreymði drauma stóra ok
Hættliga um líf sitt. En er hann sagði Ásunum draumana þá báru þeir
Saman ráð sín, ok var þat gert at beiða griða Baldri fyrir alls-konar
Háska, ok Frigg tók svardaga til þess at eira sky
Ldu Baldri eldr ok vatn, járn ok alls-konar málmr, steinar, jørðin,
Viðirnir, sóttirnar, dýrin, fuglarnir, eitr, ormar. En er þetta var gert
Ok vitat, þá var þat skemtun Baldrs ok Ásanna at hann skyldi standa upp
á þingum en allir aðrir skyldu sumir skjót
A á hann, sumir høggva til, sumir berja grjóti. En hvat sem at var gert,
Sakaði hann ekki, ok þótti þetta øllum mikill frami. En er þetta sá Loki
Laufeyjarson þá líkaði honum illa er Baldr sakaði ekki. Hann gekk til
Fensalar til Friggjar ok brá sér í konu
líki. Þá spyrr Frigg ef sú kona vissi hvat Æsir høfðusk at á þinginu.
Hon sagði at allir skutu at Baldri, ok þat at hann sakaði ekki. Þá mælir
Frigg:
'"Eigi munu vápn eða viðir granda Baldri. Eiða hefi ek þegit af øllum
þeim."
'Þá sp
Yrr konan: "Hafa allir hlutir eiða unnit at eira Baldri?"
'Þá svarar Frigg: "Vex viðarteinungr einn fyrir vestan Valhøll. Sá er
Mistilteinn kallaðr. Sá þótti mér ungr at krefja eiðsins."
'Því næst hvarf konan á braut. En Loki tók mistiltein ok sleit
upp ok
Gekk til þings. En Høðr stóð útarliga í mannhringinum því at hann var
Blindr. Þá mælir Loki við hann:
'"Hví skýtr þú ekki at Baldri?"
'Hann svarar: "Þvíat ek sé eigi hvar Baldr er, ok þat annat at ek em
Vápnlauss."
'Þá mælir Loki: "Gerð
U þó í líking annarra manna ok veit Baldri soemð
Sem aðrir menn. Ek mun vísa þér til hvar hann stendr. Skjót at honum
Vendi þessum."
'Høðr tók mistiltein ok skaut at Baldri at tilvísun Loka. Flaug
Skotit í gøgnum hann ok fell hann dauðr til jarðar, ok hefir þat mest
óhapp verit unnit með goðum ok mønnum. Þá er Baldr var fallinn þá
Fellusk øllum Ásum orðtøk ok svá hendr at taka til
Hans, ok sá hverr til annars, ok váru allir með einum hug til þess er
Unnit hafði verkit. En engi mátti hefna, þar var svá mikill griðastaðr.
En þá er Æsirnir freistuðu at mæla þá var hitt þó fyrr at grátrinn kom
Upp svá at engi mátti øðrum segja með orðu
Num frá sínum harmi. En Óðinn bar þeim mum verst þenna skaða sem hann
Kunni mesta skyn hversu mikil aftaka ok missa Ásunum var í fráfalli
Baldrs. En er goðin vitkuðusk þá mælir Frigg ok spurði hverr sá væri með
Ásum er eignask vildi allar ástir hennar ok
Hylli ok vili hann ríða á Helveg ok freista ef hann fái fundit Baldr ok
Bjóða Helju útlausn ef hon vill láta fara Baldr heim í Ásgarð. En sá er
Nefndr Hermóðr inn hvati, sveinn Óðins, er til þeirar farar varð. Þá var
Tekinn Sleipnir, hestr Óðins, ok leidd
R fram, ok steig Hermóðr á þann hest ok hleypti braut.
Burzum is a Norwegian black metal project founded by Varg Vikernes in the 1990s. Vikernes, a controversial figure in the underground music scene, has always maintained complete control over the project, recording, composing and playing all instruments on every album. His musical style is characterized by dark atmospheres, simple but effective riffs and a minimalist approach that sets him apart from other black metal bands of the time. Among Burzum's most representative tracks are "Filosofem", "Dunkelheit" and "Ea, Lord of the Depths". The debut album, "Burzum", released in 1992, is considered a classic of the genre and has significantly influenced the global black metal scene. Vikernes has since dedicated himself to other musical projects such as "Varg Vikernes" and "Ulver", but Burzum remains his most well-known and controversial project.
