ASMR reading of the short story Gods of the North, re-titled to The Frost Giant's Daughter, by Robert E Howard, from 1934. Renamed The Frost-Giant's Daughter, the Gods of the North is the earliest chronological story by Robert E. Howard in terms of Conan's life. The brief tale is set somewhere in frozen Nordheim, geographically situated north of Conan's homeland, Cimmeria. Conan is depicted by Howard as an young mercenary, traveling among with the golden-haired Aesir, in a war party. Shortly before the story begins, a hand-to-hand battle has occurred on an icy plain. Eighty men  have perished in bloody combat, and Conan alone survives the battlefield where Wulfhere  faced the Vanir wolves of Bragi, a Vanir chieftain.
