| Gryla is a very ugly woman.
She has three husbands. They gave her 65 sons.
|
Her favourite 13 sons
are the sons of Leppaludi. Not a handsome creature either. |

| This rather loathsome
couple wants to eat human children all the time. |
The 13 sons are often sent
out to get human children and take them to their lair. A kind of Icelandic take-away. |

| Gryla only cooks when
she feels like it. Sometimes there are hundreds of years between meals. |
When she does, it is done
with such energy that the mountains spit fire. Humans call it a vulcanic eruption. |
