The Children Of Odin

"What will be after heaven and earth and the whole world are burned? All the gods will be dead, together with the Einherjar and the whole of mankind."

An abridged section of the final chapter of Irish folk writer Padraic Colum's "The Children of Odin," narrated by Elizabeth Klett.  The chapter details events describing the cyclic start and end of creation in Norse cosmology.
