The <strong>Odin</strong> <strong>Brotherhood</strong> 37<br />
AUTHOR: And was the sage punished for his hubris?<br />
THE ODIN BROTHERHOOD: No. To the contrary, the<br />
audacity of the sage pleased the Eddaic gods, and all the<br />
revelers laughed.<br />
AUTHOR: They laughed?<br />
THE ODIN BROTHERHOOD: Yes. And the Eddaic gods<br />
invited “Innocent-of-Conviction” to join their feast, for they<br />
admired any man who dared to confront power. Such a man,<br />
they declared, was a natural confederate of gods.<br />
AUTHOR: And so the sage had found his answer?<br />
THE ODIN BROTHERHOOD: Indeed. And he had made a<br />
discovery as well.<br />
AUTHOR: What discovery?<br />
THE ODIN BROTHERHOOD: Beware of gods who cannot<br />
laugh.<br />
AUTHOR: That parable was certainly revealing.<br />
THE ODIN BROTHERHOOD: It was not a parable.<br />
According to our legends, the events really occurred during<br />
“The-Age-of-Heroic-Gestures.”<br />
The Contacts between Men and Gods<br />
AUTHOR: Have many men visited the gods?<br />
THE ODIN BROTHERHOOD: Yes. Usually, however, the<br />
gods visit us.
