Fred and Gerd
One day, Frey Odin When he was away, he secretly sat in Odin's The highest throne (Hlidskjalf), it is said that sitting on the throne can see the whole world. Then Frey saw Gerd, the daughter of Gaimir, a beautiful woman in the giant country. When she raised her arms, the light from her arms lit up the sky and the sea. Frey got it lovesickness , Frey's father Neold When worried, he sent his attendant Skirnir to inquire. When Skinner learned about Frey's intentions, he volunteered to help Frey propose in the giant's land. Frey happily gave him his magic sword.
Skinner asks Frey to give him the god Bl ó ð ugh ó fi so that he can pass through smoothly Yodunheim He took the treasure to see Gede successfully. But Gerd is stubborn, even if Skinner offers 11 things that can last forever Golden apple And one that produces eight every nine nights Gold ring Ge De refused to accept it and refused to marry God.
Seeing this, Skinner had to use his Wand "Gambanteinn" threatens Ge De and curses her with a curse. If he does not agree, he can only combine with the ugly Hr í mgr í mnir in hell. Ge De then agrees to marry Frey. However, after meeting Frey in Barrezhisen, Ge De was quite successful, and their marriage was happy, and they had their son Fj ö lnir.
The reason why Gerd refused Frey's pursuit was that some people believed that Gerd was obsessed with her late brother. Because in Sk í rnism á l, Gerd complained that Frey had killed her brother. Therefore, Gerd's unwillingness to accept Frey was largely based on her grief for the unknown brother. Although Gerd's brother has no name, some scholars explain that Gerd may be the sister of Billy ("the growler"), who was killed by Frey with big antlers as a giant in a unarmed duel with Frey.

Frey
Frey is here Northern Europe He is also a very worshipped god, so the semi historical Frey also came into being. According to Snory Strathong's Ancient History of Norway, Frey is the successor of half history Odin And a king after Nield. stay Germanic and Scandinavia Everywhere, Frey has many different names; And in Denmark He is called Fradi (peaceful or free), and is also regarded as a semi historical monarch. It is said that Vladi once got a magic mill, which can grind various things according to people's wishes. Freddie made two female giants grind and produced "gold", "abundance" and "peace". But Freddie was insatiable and refused to let the giant rest. They wanted revenge. One night, instead of singing "Gold", "Abundance" and "Peace", they sang "War" while grinding, so pirates came to kill all the Danes in their sleep, rob the two giants and grind them, and put them on their ships. The pirate told the giant woman to grind Salinization Come, because salt was rare and expensive at that time. But the cruelty of the pirates was no less than that of Freddy. The female giant still had no rest and had to grind on. She produced too much salt and sank the ship. Because the giant woman and the mill are still grinding in the water, there is more and more salt in the sea, so the sea water has become salty since then. (Of course, this is just a legend. Frey is also a symbol of golden sunshine.)

Although "Freddie" is undoubtedly the legend of "Frey", this semi historical monarch of Denmark has been greatly different from Frey in character.
