#golden apples of idunn

The Evermore Grimoire: Mythology

TheGolden Apples of Idunn only grow in Asgard and can only be picked by the goddess Idunn. The apples are what granted the Asgardians their youth, vigour, and virtual immortality. They grew on a tree in a garden on the east side of ‘Hall of Valhalla’ in Asgard. At point Loki, the trickster god kidnapped the goddess after a dispute with a giant named Thiazi. Without Idunn’s apples, the gods quickly began to age and their hair turned grey. When Loki was found to be the one behind all this, he had to choose between paying with his life or bringing Idunn back home to Asgard again.
