Hwergelmer <ref name="term_44535" />
<p> in Norse mythology, is the spring in the centre of [[Helheim]] and Niflbeim, in which the drops collect that fall from the antlers of the reindeer Aeikthyrner. There are so many of them that the spring supplies thirty- seven rivers of hell. The spring is inhabited by many snakes, who gnaw at the root of the world ash-tree, Ygdrasil. </p>
