When two treacherous dwarves murdered Suttungr's parents, he set out to avenge them. In exchange for sparing their lives, the dwarves offered him a magical Mead, which he hid in a vault inside the mountain Hnitbjorg. Along with his daughter Gunlodr, he guarded it jealously, until one day, Odin came looking for it...
