What is Váli (son of Odin)?
In [[Norse mythology]], '''Váli''' is a son of the god [[Odin]] and giantess Rindr. Váli's brothers are [[Thor]], [[Baldur|Baldr]] and [[Víðarr]]. When Baldr was killed, Váli killed the person who killed him. He grew to full adulthood in one day.<ref name=McCoy /> We don't know whether Norse people worshipped Váli as a god or whether he was only a character in the [[Poetic Edda]]. <ref name=McCoy>{{cite web|title=VALI|author=Daniel McCoy|url=https://norse-mythology.org/vali/|publisher=Norse Mythology for Smart People}}</ref> He is also the god of flight. Anything that passes through the sky, whether man made or of nature is under his control. To symbolize this his cloak is made of raven feathers that when he spreads his arms looks like wings. Váli is fated to survive [[Ragnarök]]. ==References== {{reflist}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Vali}} [[Category:Norse mythology]] [[Category:Norse gods and goddesses]] {{religion-stub}}
