The Norse god Odin rules over Asgard (the domain of gods) from his throne in Valhalla (The Hall of the Slain). Odin is said to have created many of the other gods in the Nordic pantheon, the human race, and Midgard (Earth), which is why he is known as the Allfather. Valhalla is where souls of the einherjar (warriors who died in combat) gather after death, and prepare for Ragnarök, the final battle at the end of time.
