There is a certain level of knowledge of Norse mythology required to enjoy this epic series. This chapter highlights the enmity between the House of Odin and the House of Loki. Though Odin may have taken Loki as kin, this was in the Marvel movies after all, because of the latter's children, they are destined to be on the opposite sides of Ragnarök.

Who are Loki's children? Why, the god of mischief have sired monsters and they major players themselves in Ragnarök. They are Fenrir, Jormungandr and Hel. I wonder how Marvel Studios would adapt this lineage in its movies.
