068 MIGRATION FROM THE NORTH

Hosts of Giants flocked over the Elivogar into the North of Midgard.

The smiths of nature, who formerly had blessed the land with beauty and fertile growth, now left it, and went all the way from Svarin's Mound to Aurvangaland in the south.

Sindri (Dvalin) was their leader. Numerous Teutonic clans lived in Svithjod (Scandinavia), and were forced by the atmospheric changes to move south.

The Northern Swedes suffered first, and thereupon all the other clans.

Thus one clan pushed the next one towards the south, fleeing the icy winter-winds of the far north.

Behind them the lands became covered with wastes of snow and terrible glaciers.

Delivery from cold and famine could be glimpsed toward the south.
