Tyr: So I'd say I know a little something about sacrifice!! Hamhock: Okay, okay, you can have the last buffalo wing! Man, you don't have to tell that story every time! Fenrir was the greatest threat to the Norse gods, fated to devour their All Father, Odin. So the gods set out to bind the wolf, but found even their strongest chains no match for the fearsome beast. The dwarves forged a magic cord called Gleipnir to fetter the evil hellhound. Fenrir detected little threat in the slender golden rope, but he still suspected trickery at work. So he asked to have a hand placed in his mouth for good faith. Only Tyr, the bravest of the gods, dared face the beast's awful maw. When Fenrir saw the rope would hold, he clamped his jaws down. The wolf was bound, but at the cost of the war god's mighty right hand!
