How Did Loki End up Gifting Thor's Hammer?
Loki, the Norse Spirit of Mischief, once looked for another chance to taunt his fellow Guardians while living close to Asgard, the North Supreme Beings' capital. Sif, the wife of Thor and the protector of agriculture, the sky, and thunder, adored her gorgeous, free-flowing blonde hair. One morning, when Thor noticed her hair was damaged, he was outraged and assumed Loki—who is known for his mischievous nature—was responsible. Thor confronted Loki and demanded that Sif's golden curls be returned. Loki requested permission from Thor to visit Svartelheim because he believed that only the dwarves there could assist. The dwarves also created two other gifts for Asgard in addition to fresh golden locks for Sif. Instinctively seeking out other dwarves to produce even more wonderful creations, Loki bet they couldn't top his past presents. He pretended to be a fly to assure their failure but was unable to obstruct their efforts. The best gift was a strong hammer made by the dwarves called Mjolnir, but Loki's attempt to destroy it was unsuccessful. The gifts were given to Odin, Thor, and Freyr, and Loki owed the dwarves his head. Loki, ingeniously, claimed that he pledged his head, not his neck, and they chose to glue his mouth shut.
