What I am mainly questioning is the statement that a Jotun (giant) is also Vanir and BOTH fight against the Aesir at Ragnarok...?

There were three types of giant:

Normal giants
Fire giants
Frost giants

The giants were all part of the Vanir and so against the Aesir, and at the time of Ragnarok, would cross over Bifrost and break it. They would fight against Odin and the other Aesir at Vigrid. The normal giants lived in Jotunheim, the fire giants lived in Muspelheim, and the frost giants lived in Niflheim.

That site is both incredibly simplistic and drastically incorrect about a number of things.

Pay it no heed.

"the statement that a Jotun (giant) is also Vanir and BOTH fight against the Aesir at Ragnarok...?" I think that they mean the race (all 3 types) of giant and Vanir (the rest of) ie both.

Thanks for the read!

Yeah I passed this level. You have to plant a bomb next to the crack in the mountainside. It'll blow up a door that's there and you can go in and get the wand that makes the giants fight for you and not against you. Hope that helps.

I would say that you read too much Sci-Fi/Fantasy.

You do know that those books are for entertainment purposes only, right?
