In
Norse mythology, the god
Rig came to a mansion inhabited by
Fadir and his wife, Modir ("mother"). They gave him excellent food and, nine months later, Modir gave birth to a beautiful baby named
Jarl. Rig taught Jarl
runes and other magic, as well as the language of the
birds. Jarl then gathered some men and captured some land, then married
Erna, with whom he had eleven sons.
