World Apocalypse Myths:
The two humans who hid themselves deep within Yggdrasil will be called Lif and Lifthrasir. . . . Life ("Life") and Lifthrasir ("'thriving remnant") will have children. Their children will bear children. There will be life and new life, life everywhere on earth. That was the end; and this is the beginning.
