Still not moving from the kid's desk. It was comfortable. Oh the Captain and cane-to-be gave a correct answer too. Ab was so glad to have a sportman and a thinker in a student. He smiled widely at him and nodded, "That's true. Great job mentioning the charms and pendants."

Okay, enough answers. Botros lifted himself off the boy's desk and went to stand by Mr. Turner. "Most of you gave great, correct answers. To sum it all up I'll rephrase them." They didn't need to go into details about Thor, this was not History of Magic. "Thor, Thorr, Thunar, or even Donar is the person in the picture. His name means "The Thunderer" which, as we'll see soon, is legit." He leaned slightly on the boy's shoulder, again. "He is son of Odin and Jord. The Hammer-God of thunder and lightening, agriculture and craftsmanship. Thor also is the God of defense and strength, and we'll focus on this today." He stole a glance toward the piles, with a smile on his face. "His magic hammer is known as Mjöllnir, as some of you mentioned it means The Smasher, the Crasher or even The Destroyer." It depends on which source you refer to. "It's forged by the Dwarf Brokk, hits everything that Thor aims at and always comes back to his hand. Thor can reduce its size to hang it around his neck instead of always carrying it around with his hand." Useful.

"He, the Almighty Thor, is champion of the Gods and enemy of the Giants, also a protector of mankind." He smiled at the boy who mentioned this. "He has a magic belt called Megingjardar, which means "Strength Increaser", and drives a chariot pulled by two Giant male goats." They, unfortunately were not going to see those in class. "With all those weapons, Thor forms an invincible power and champion against his enemies." Pause. ""It shall never fail, no matter how big nor how hard that which it smites may be; no matter how far it is thrown, it will always return to your hand; you may make it so small that it can be hidden in your bosom, and its only fault is the shortness of its handle." As Brokk, the dwarf who created this hammer, had described it."

"Thor is a size-shifter, he is terribly heavy and hot. Although he is sometimes over-hasty in judgment, he is a totally reliable friend and battle companion. He has wild red hair and beard, always dresses in battle dress." Motioning at the picture behind him for evidence. "There are so many legendary stories about Thor, his bravery, his strength and the victorious battles he went through."

Botros paused, leaning on his desk. "The main reason we're discussing Thor and his hammer, is the fact that most of his power and control of Thunder and Lightening comes from runic magic that the dwarf who made Mjöllnir etched on it, and then was magicked by his father, All-father, and father of runes Odin." He went to the blackboard and drew a set of runes. "It's very difficult to know what exactly is written on the Mjöllnir that gave this incomparable strength but most resources point at the direction of this set of runes." He pointed at the blackboard. "Who can define some of those runes, and tell us their meanings."
