Hoddmimir is a figure from Norse mythology, known primarily as a giant who resides in a forest called Hoddmimir's Wood. This forest is significant because it is said to shelter the last remaining humans after the catastrophic event known as Ragnarök, which leads to the end of the world in Norse beliefs. In the myths, Hoddmimir is associated with wisdom and knowledge. He is often mentioned in connection with the Aesir, the principal group of deities in Norse mythology, and is believed to possess a well that grants wisdom to those who seek it. His role emphasizes the importance of knowledge and survival in the face of destruction.
