modern retelling of the birth of Jörmungandr, or the Midgard Serpent. Deemed as of the most terrifying creatures in Norse mythology, Jörmungandr is a giant in the form of a mightly serpent, responsible for triggering Ragnarok, or the end of the world. Representing an ouroboros, Jörmungandr harkens cyclical violence, along with the themes of destruction and rebirth - a process that is triggered when the serpent uncoils itself and moves towards land.
