Who Killed Jormungandr

“Thor will kill the Midgard Serpent, and then he will step back nine feet. Because of the poison the serpent spits on him, he will fall to the earth, dead. The wolf will swallow Odin, and that will be his death.

What is jormungand the god of?

Jormungand (which means “wolf-serpent”) was also known as the Midgard Serpent, or the World Serpent, because its body coiled around the whole Earth underneath the oceans, and the Earth was called Midgard in Norse cosmology. The serpent’s eternal enemy was the thunder god Thor.
