Listen
Who secured promises from everything except mistletoe to never hurt Baldr?
Odin
Farbauti
Freya
Frigg
Solution
Answer
The answer is Frigg.
Explanation
Option 1: Odin
Odin is the chief of the Aesir gods in Norse mythology and Baldr's father, but he is not the one who secured promises from everything except mistletoe.
Option 2: Farbauti
Farbauti is a giant in Norse mythology and the father of Loki. He is not involved in the story of securing promises for Baldr's safety.
Option 3: Freya
Freya is a goddess associated with love, beauty, and fertility, but she is not the one who secured promises for Baldr.
Option 4: Frigg
Frigg, Baldr's mother, is the one who secured promises from all things in the world to never harm Baldr, except for mistletoe, which she overlooked. This oversight ultimately led to Baldr's death.
