weird words, weird meanings. not worth my time.

It's not hard. Yggdrasil is, literally translated, World-Tree. It is a tree that connects every world. It has to get its food from somewhere, right? So wherever it gets its food is probably magical as well, right? So, Odin goes out in search of where Yggdrasil gets its water, and finds that a frost giant named Mimir has already taken it. Mimir, also looking for power and made intelligent by drinking from the magical spring Yggdrasil feeds from, decides to bargain with Odin. Since he's already super-intelligent, he decides he wants to be super-aware too, and so he takes Odin's godly eye in exchange for access to his magical spring, so that he can see as well as a god can. The story of how Odin learned runics is equally as simple. When you sacrifice to something, you get their blessing, right? The better the sacrifice, the better the blessing. Well, Odin decides he's going to sacrifice to Yggdrasil, since that's basically the strongest living thing in the universe by default. Since Yggdrasil is so powerful, it needs a very good sacrifice. So, of course, Odin sacrifices himself. Since a god is a spectacularly valuable sacrifice, Yggdrasil gives Odin his blessing. Since Odin is a god, he survives sacrificing himself and manages to take Yggdrasil's blessing without further troubles. It's all very materialistic and simple, once you get past the names. Even the names are simple, if you know the basics of Old Norse. Óðinn, for example, translates to "The Furious One", which befits his status as the god of war.

@Mtntopview

Not my fault you can't understand the second-most straightforward mythology in the world. The Norse were a very "practical" people.

Yggdrasil. As in the ancient tree that Odin sac'd his eye to for knowledge in Norse mythology that seems to be a really popular name for things. Yeah idk either. I think the incident at Yggdrasil has cleared up.

@PKMNB0Y

Odin sacrificed his eye to Mimir, a Jotun who owned a magical pond that Yggdrasil derived nutrients from. Odin sacrificed himself to Yggdrasil by hanging himself with the tree's branches, and invented runes by examining the formation of the twigs that he loosed from the tree in the process of hanging himself.

There's a lot of things going on. Can you state which location you want a runthrough of?

@Earnest Evans

I want a rundown on what's happening at the SE base, as well as the yggdersaw or whatever. That name is confusings.
