Fate & Fabled - Season 3

In Norse mythology, there are two types of gods: the war-loving Aesir and magic-wielding Vanir. Long ago, they fought an epic war over who should be worshiped more by humans, but neither side could win. They reached a truce and united into a single pantheon, which is very rare in folklore. This might indicate a meeting of cultures in Norway from more than 3000 years ago!
