Vidar
Vidar was the son of Odin and the giantess Grid "peace". Vidar was known as the silent god or silent As, because he rarely talked. Vidar was thesecond strongest As after Thor. Vidar lived in Brushwood. Brushwood was either the name of his hall or else it is his land, since it said the Eddaic poem:
Brushwood grows and high grass
widely in Vidar's land;
and there the son proclaims on his horse's back
that he's keen to avenge his father.
Grimmar's Sayings 17 from the Poetic Edda
translated by Carolyne Larrington
His mother gave him special iron shoes that he would wear in Ragnarök (Ragnarok). Vidar avenged his father death at Ragnarök by killing the giant wolf Fenrir. The shoes protected him from being devoured by Fenrir. In the monster's mouth, Vidar would stand in Fenrir's lower jaw while gripping his upper jaw with his bare hands. Then Vidar tore Fenrir's mouth apart. Vidar was one of the survivors of Ragnarök.
Snorri compared Vidar with Aeneas, the Trojan hero, because Vidar survived Ragnarök as Aeneas had survived when Troy fell.
