Last of all Gangraad leaned close to Vafthrudner and whispered in his ear, "What word will the Allfather whisper in the ear of the dead Balder when that fair god lies upon his funeral pyre?"

Hearing these words the giant's face grew pale as ashes. Up he rose and cried, "No mortal man art thou, nor even a lesser god, but Odin, the Allfather himself. No other one could have asked such a question."

Othin spake:
54. "Much have I fared, | much have I found,
Much have I got from the gods:
What spake Othin himself | in the ears of his son,
Ere in the bale-fire he burned?"

Vafthruthnir spake:
55. "No man can tell | what in olden time
Thou spak'st in the ears of thy son;
With fated mouth | the fall of the gods
And mine olden tales have I told;
With Othin in knowledge | now have I striven,
And ever the wiser thou art."


Seems to be something pretty important.

This might actually be one of the biggest mysteries of all.

Some think he might have said something about Balder surviving Ragnarok

Balder's death was one of the signs of the coming of the end of the world

What did Odin know that no one else did? What did he say to him?
