Kennings for Loki

A kenning is a compound expression in Old English and Old Norse poetry with metaphorical meaning, e.g., oar-steed = ship.


Here are my favorite Kennings for Loki:


Breaker of Worlds
Bringer of Gifts
Burden of Sigyn’s Arms
Father of Monsters
God of a Thousand Masks (hmmm … I think there was a movie based on this one)
Lie-Smith
Silver tongue
Sky-treader
Sky-walker 
Hoenir’s friend

Beatrice and Loki have great fun with Kennings in I Bring the Fire Part I (Free on AmazoniBooks, & B&N)


I’m going to reveal Bohdi’s name at the end of Warriors … it is a Hindi kenning that really ties the story together.
