Everything about H Nir totally explained
In
Norse mythology,
Hœnir was one of the
Æsir. Along with
Mímir, he went to the
Vanir as a hostage to seal a truce. The Vanir made Hœnir one of their members, but he was indecisive and relied on
Mímir for all of his decisions, grunting noncommital answers when Mímir was absent. This is related in the
Ynglinga saga
In
Völuspá, at the creation of the first human beings,
Ask and Embla, Hœnir and
Lóðurr help
Odin. In
Gylfaginning,
Vili and
Vé are mentioned instead. As Snorri knew
Völuspá, it's possible that Hœnir was another name for
Vili. Also according to
Völuspá, Hœnir was one of the few gods that would survive
Ragnarök.
Hœnir also has a minor role in
Haustlöng and
Reginsmál.
Hoenir crater on
Callisto is named after him.
