In Norse mythology, Freyja (Old Norse the "Lady") is a goddess associated with love, sexuality, beauty, fertility, gold, sei\xf0r, war, and death. Freyja is the owner of the necklace Br\xedsingamen, rides a chariot pulled by two cats, owns the boar Hildisv\xedni, possesses a cloak of falcon feathers, and, by her husband \xd3\xf0r, is the mother of two daughters, Hnoss and Gersemi. Along with her brother Freyr (Old Norse the "Lord"), her father Nj\xf6r\xf0r, and her mother Nerthius, she is a member of the Vanir. Freyja rules over her heavenly afterlife field F\xf3lkvangr and there receives half of those that die in battle, whereas the other half go to the god Odin's hall, Valhalla. Within F\xf3lkvangr is her hall, Sessr\xfamnir. Freyja assists other deities by allowing them to use her feathered cloak, is invoked in matters of fertility and love, and is frequently sought after by powerful j\xf6tnar who wish to make her their wife. Freyja's husband, the god \xd3\xf0r, is frequently absent. She cries tears of red gold for him.
