Vendil, The golden goddess of treasure Vikings used to bury their treasures so they would have richness in Valhalla but this wasn’t always a certainty so to guarantee the riches safe travels to Valhalla they would bury it in the secret town of VENDEL. Vendel was the site of an ancient royal estate, part of uppsala öd, a network of royal estates meant to to provide income for the medieval Swedish kings. A large number of archeological finds have been found here, which have been given their name to the vendel period. Vendel was protected by a golden goddess by the similar name Vendil. Her meaning was to make sure that the Vikings golds and treasures were reunited with them in Valhalla when they died.

She was described with long locks and blonde hair or a golden hair and often flowers all around her and golden necklaces and rings. Some songs claim that she had a pair of dove wings on her back and a tail. She was told as a rare creature among humans but she was told that humans were rocks of grey well she was a sapphire jewel godly and beautiful. Vendil would have chains on gold wrapped around her thighs, abdomen and breasts also often described with chokers of Jules around her throat. she would often brain pearls and beads into her hair for luck and were often seen running around with the huldr as and mountain folk.

She was the daughter of Loki and Freya after they were locked inside of a mountain for 13 days. Vendil was later banished to roam the earth with kings by odin for he found her too attractive and a danger for herself and would not be safe around other gods or godlings. Others speculated it was because she would not lie with him, and he would not be seen with such shame.

She would often let some specially handpicked vikings, like kings or jarls, lie with her, so they would get guaranteed that their gold would be would be doubled when entering Valhalla. But that would only become true if they pleased her well enough. But if they broke her heart their gold would go to her half sister hel (hela).

When Ragnarok came she mended all of her personal gold and treasure and unclaimed gold and melted it to 2 giant golden axes and twin blades. She creates an armour blessed with enough jewels and stones to save her life 6 times during the fight h. Vendil took everything she could find on the way and created weapons for those in need. Even though she had lived most of her life as a goddess on Midgaard she would fight for her people even though odin betrayed her. She was slain by her half sister but not before she could mortally injure hel and they died in each other’s arms. Fenrir saw what happend to his sisters and became to distracted with grief that Odin was able to kill the all powerful wolf.
