Description I wanted to make little changes, such as turning the troll to a jötnar (frost giant).

Image 1: His father forces him to go outside and chop some wood. It's winter and the cold is increasing.
Image 2: He meets a jötnar, who threatens him.
Image 3: He crushes his lunch (cheese), pretending it to be a rock. That way, the jötnar gets scared, believing Askeladden is a norse god.
Image 4: Jötnar invites him to his place, for porridge and drinks. The giant has a good time, while Askeladden hides his served food, pretending to eat all of it. Also, the giant gets drunk.
Image 5: Askeladden convinces successfully  the very drunk jötnar that cutting your own stomach doesn't hurt at all. Oh, and one can eat much more! On the giant's knife it says "Trollslakt" (troll slay).
Image 6: Askeladden loots some firewood and other treasury things. Wanted to add a nice sword and such. The jötnar gets himself killed by his own knife.

Not sure how long this took. Very long, had to fix things here and there. There's always something to fix, but I have to deliver it someday.

Ironically original Askeladden is inspired by Loki. What a cheeky character!
