Brokkr And Eitri – Norse Dwarves Who Fashioned Magical Artifacts For The Gods
Ellen Lloyd - AncientPages.com - Brokkr and Eitri were Norse dwarves who fashioned magical artifacts for the gods, making them powerful and invincible.

The gods and goddesses knew that conflicts with the dwarves could be troublesome.
