"Mimir was killed and beheaded by the Vanir during the Aesir-Vanir War. Upon seeing the severed head, Odin embalmed it with special herbs and chanted magical songs over it to preserve it. He consulted the head in times of need, and it continued to dispense incomparable advice."

The only reading I’ve done regarding Norse mythology is by way of Neil Gaiman. Will definitely find and read this story. Sounds interesting

Hope you find that thread you lost. -
I don’t know much Norse mythology either - but any story involving Odin consulting a severed head kinda sticks in.
