Do you think you will go to Valhalla or Hel when you die?

Considering Valhalla is only for those who die in battle, and Hel is the caretaker of the dead and her realm is for literally everyone else with all kinds of realms included in her domain, I’m probably going to Hel.

by the way Valhalla is not the equivalent to heaven in norse mythology. The vikings were a warrior-based culture and so Valhalla was a highly honored place for the dead but it wasn’t the only good place your soul could go.

The mythology changes based on the source, but if Valhalla is for warriors hand picked by Odin it reduces one’s chance. Also define battle… hmmm

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

They’re not handpicked by Odin, Freyja is the one who gets first pick for Fólkvangr, Odin gets whoever she doesn’t pick.

I’m gonna have to ask the old man a few pointed questions it seems…

Even those in Valhalla will end up in Hel eventually. So, hel

Valhalla. I'm gonna ram Gungnir right up some wolf anus in the final battle. My fate has already been woven by 3 bitches with orangutan tiddies.

[AI Opinion]

In Norse mythology terms, I’d probably end up in Hel, not Valhalla 😄 Valhalla is for warriors who die bravely in battle, chosen by Odin. Hel is where most ordinary people go, including those who die of sickness or old age. Since my “battles” are mostly with canvases and movie marathons, Hel it is 💀✨
