The Real God Of War: Tyr | Norse Mythology Explained

Описание: Everybody knows God of War... it's a brand name at this point and synonymous with Kratos, and, thanks to God Of War Ragnarök, the name Tyr has become somewhat of a household name as well. But the real Tyr actually has stories of his own, that are both hilarious and disastrously tragic... the latter featuring Fenrir, while the former features Thor and the world's most epic beer run. So, let's dissect the real God of War from Norse Mythology, Tyr, a man mostly known for his bravery, and, for better or for worse, his sense of duty. Since Tyr and Fenrir are inseparable, this story obviously heavily features Fenrir as well, and Thor also makes frequent appearances in Tyr's tales, as do Odin and Loki, which is why this video is a bit longer than my usual content, so do let me know if you enjoy these longer videos. Anyway... let's do this:

Notes
All myythologies are tough puzzle to piece together, because at the end of the day... these stories are thousands of years old. They have been re-told and re-written over and over. This is true for any mythology, including the Norse one. With every tale, there are many different versions that were told in various regions over various eras. For the sake of this video — and all my videos — I try to streamline these stories as much as possible and leave out some details, this might bother some, but it makes these videos more fun to watch.I don't want to get caught up in the details and lose sight of the bigger picture.
So... is this accurate and well researched? Absolutely, 100%. Is this the only interpretation or way of recounting the tale of Tyr, Thor and Fenrir? No, but subjectively speaking… it’s the way I like it the most.

Get All My Artwork & Support The Channel:
I get a lot of questions about my artwork and where it’s from or rather who draws it. Well the answer is that I create it — I don’t draw it. I use AI to create the artwork, using specific prompts, specific style influences from 18th and 19th century artists, and I spend about 6 hours per video just on the artwork. Each video has roughly double the artwork of what you actually see in the video, so a lot of it is unused. The good news here though is that you can get all that artwork on my Patreon — the artwork I do use, and the artwork I don’t use. Plus, by subscribing to my Patreon you are making a major contribution to Briefed and helping me to keep this channel going, because this is my full time job and the survival of the channel and quality of the videos greatly depends on said support. In return for supporting, you get more than the artwork though — you also get exclusive videos and producer credit, as well as access to a producer group that gets to vote on thumbnails, gets behind the scenes etc.
If you choose to become a Patron — thank you. I do not take it for granted.

Sources:
A lot of people ask me about my sources, and… to be honest, they are a mixed bag. One major source is my lifelong interest in storytelling and mythology. Another is the beautiful endless library that is the internet, and, third, I read the occasional book from time to time, which I’m happy to recommend to you, but also… I’m planning to write my own book on mythology, so, in due time the answer will be…:
Source? Me. Yay.
