The Scandinavian stories tell us that Thor is the warrior god, the strongest of all.
He crosses the worlds in order to protect the men and gods from the forces of chaos. His divine attribute, the hammer allows him to create lightning and lightning. He is the master of the Thunderstorm that brings rain, which is indispensable to fertility on Earth.
Thor pushed men to fight in wars where the weapons were composed only of cut steel and wood.
From rustic combats, some of which are carried away in the dark, others continue to breathe the light.
The bewitching war of the northerners seems so distant, of another time.
But Warriors today are not so different. Men, guided by divine forces, continue to plunge into the dark. Thor and his hammer creator of eclairs could well, one day, fall again from the sky.
