Summary "Gods of the North" by Robert E. Howard is a short story that was published in the early 20th century, specifically in the 1930s. This story centers around themes of myth, battle, and enchanting encounters, likely exploring the mystical elements of Norse mythology. The narrative follows Amra of Akbitana, a warrior who finds himself alone on a bloodied snowfield after a fierce battle. As he grapples with fatigue and disorientation, he encounters a beautiful and beguiling woman who draws him in with her enchanting presence, leading him away into the snowy wilderness. As Amra pursues her, he must contend with giants and the underlying threat of death. Ultimately, he realizes he has been lured by Atali, the frost-giant’s daughter, a figure who leads warriors to their doom. The story combines elements of fantasy with the brutal reality of warfare, culminating in a haunting exploration of temptation and mortality. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
