== Myth == Fjalar and Galar murdered a [[jötunn]] named [[Gilling]], along with his wife. Their son, [[Suttungr]], searched for his parents and threatened the dwarven brothers, who offered him the magical mead in exchange for sparing their lives. Suttungr took it and hid it in the center of a mountain, with his daughter, [[Gunnlöð]], standing guard. [[Odin]] eventually decided to obtain the mead. He worked for [[Baugi]], Suttungr's brother, for an entire summer, then asked for a small sip of the mead. Baugi drilled into the mountain, whereupon Odin changed into a [[snake]] and slithered inside. Inside, Gunnlöð was guarding the mead, but he seduced her and persuaded her to give him three sips; Odin proceeded to drink all the mead, change into an [[eagle]] and escape.
