Unified pantheon, man. The war is over, or so I thought.

Hey man, war might be over, but once you go Vanir you don't go back. Fertility gods, man, that's how it's done.
Speaking of Vanir, though, there's some conjecture that the myths regarding the Aesir/Vanir conflict come from the Germanic tribes' cultural clash with the native peoples who lived in Scandinavia before them, and the myth about trading leaders to mollify the peoples (ancient idea to give some of your beloved leaders to your enemies and vice versa so that either side will hesitate to attack/spreads goodwill what have you) was a translation of how both cultures ended up adopting the others' gods.
