Jotunheim was the home of the Jötnar, giants of Nordic myth. It was a frozen, mountainous place, steeped in magic and illusion.
To the Viking mind, the Jötnar represented the forces of chaos that would consume their world during Ragnarök, the war at the end of time. It was therefore seen as a perilous place for their gods to thread.
