In
Norse Pagan (Asatru) lore, Ragnarok is the final battle to be
fought against the Gods of the Aesir and
the heroic dead, against Loki,
the frost giants, and the "unworthy dead" from Hel's realm. The forces
of evil, along with most of the gods, will be slain, and a new world will arise.
Only a handful of Gods, including two of Thor's sons, and two of Odin's,
are destined to survive the conflict. Two humans will survive to repopulate the
world, and the god Baldur will be resurrected.
