One day in Muspell, Loki, the most mischief maker known on Asgard, had three kids. The first one was named Hel, the most hideous child of Loki who ruled the realm of the dead. The second child was named Misgard serpent who lived at sea with its body circling Misgard. And for the last, the most monstrous child, was a fierce wolf. His name was Fenrir and he was forbidden to go into Asgard. He was so mean that he bit off Tyr's hand. Tyr is one of the most bravest gods, his job is to protect Asgard. One day Tyr was told that Fenrir was planning an attack on the Gods and Goddesses in Asgard. Franticly, before this final battle began, Tyr had to find a new magical hand.
Tyr went to Nidavellir, the world of the dwarves. He went to ask Broc and Sindri, if they could make him a new hand. Unfortunately, they were out of the materials that were needed to make one. The only magical materials left were on the island where Fenrir, the most dangerous wolf, lived", Broc told Tyr. "But since you need the hand", Broc added, "you should get someone strong enough to fight Fenrir, so that you can get your materials successfully".
Tyr went to Thor to ask him if he would go to get the materials for Tyr’s new hand. Thor said “ I will get you the materials for your hand if you will capture a frost giant.”Then Thor goes to get the materials on the island. Soon after, Thor gave the materials to Tyr. Next Tyr went to Nidavellir and gave all the materials to the dwarves to make the new hand. When the hand was finally made, they put it on Tyr. Then Thor reminded Tyr about him promise, capturing a frost giant. After two hours, Tyr was ready to battle a frost giant. When he arrived at jotantheim, he saw a frost giant cutting some wood. Tyr had a magical net, that Broke had knitted for him, and caught the frost giant. When he brought it to Thor, he got to keep his new hand.
