I managed to get no. 12 with the help of Tulpe. The images on 13 remind me of something:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):


Is it related to a certain norse legend?

my 2 cents on 13:

this is what a mod sent me after i told her what i got (what i got, i posted before on this forum)

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
focus on the story. check multiple sources. do they all tell the exact same story? ignore the years, they won't make sense until you finish the riddle, and then it's questionable.


so

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
i checked multiple sources, tried to enter stuff like legend, tale, farytale, sage, myth, balder's grove, etc... no luck.

for 13:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Frigg exacted an oath from fire and water, iron and all kinds of metals, stones, earth, trees, ailments, beasts, birds, poison, and serpents, that they would not harm Balder.
that's 11 perils and there are 11 numbers in the title.


no idea if that has something to do with the solution, just wanted to share.
maybe someone else can make something of it.

After reading and rereading all the prior posts in regards to level 11, I still need some help/hints. I can't get the last part of the poem, can't find the key word for the second part, and am having trouble putting them all together. If anyone can help out, please let me know!

I tried all that stuff too. Anything that has to do with the death and rebirth of the Norse pantheon.

I tried their important numbers. I especially liked the three winters.

Coel told me about the 3 versions of the story and I read them all. I even read the edited versions of wikipedia's story of Balder. I couldn't find a significant difference.

The conclusion of the story is that Balder's death brings about the binding of Loki. I tried that. I tried everything to do with Ragnarok. I tried wedding since in Saxo's version Hothur marries Nanna after he kills Balder.

I just feel like I'm stuck in linear thinking.

did you find any relevance to the dates, i couldnt find anything to do with dates, and yes i also tried what you tried, i read more than 10 webpages about balder and ragnarok as well, they are all the same except for a few minor things, like hoor actually did it without the help of loki or that loki did not kick this other guy into the fire, or that his wife died right after or during his funeral .. or whatever ..


hmm .. more to come
