Tossup

According to the Grímnismál (“GREEM-ness-mahl”), to “sit as judge” at one of these objects, Thor must wade through the Körmt and Örmt rivers. A tall one-eyed man thrusts his sword into one of these objects during (10[1])a marriage feast for the daughter of King Völsung. Vili (“VILL-ee”), Vé (“VAY”), and Odin create Ask and Embla from two of these objects (10[1])that they are named for. Lif and Lifthrasir survive Ragnarok by hiding in one of these objects (10[1])during (10[2])the Fimbulwinter. (10[1])The well of Mimir (“MEE-meer”) is located underneath one of (10[1])these (10[1])objects (10[1])that is tended to by the three Norns. That one of these objects houses the messenger squirrel Ratatoskr (10[3])and the dragon Nidhogg. For 10 points, in Norse mythology, what type of object is Yggdrasil ■END■
