Meaning of the Name
Muspelheim ("Flameland"), is the realm of fire in Norse Mythology. It is home to the fire giants, and their master, Surtr. It is fire and the land to the north, Niflheim is ice. The two mixed and created water from the melting ice in the void. Sparks from Muspelheim created the planets, comets and stars. According to the Ragnarok prophecies, the Sons of Muspelheim will break the Bifrost bridge, signaling the end of times.
