RD Lawerence points out that Germanic Norse mythology tells the story of a huge wolf named Fenris, who was the first son of the satanic overlord Loki (122). The legend of Fenris states that "[he] was so large that when he opened his mouth his jaws stretched from the earth to the sky" (Todd 1). According to legend, "he devoured several hundred people before the gods could chain him." (Lawerence 122) This thousand-year-old German legend tells us that the wolf eats people mercilessly and is a satanic child of the devil. Also consider the very popular fairy tale “Little Red Riding Hood”. R. D. Lawerence states that “The story of Little Red Riding Hood perpetuates a number of myths about wolves” (120). Palamar would agree with this statement about “Little Red Riding Hood” as he believes that in the popular fairy tale “The wolf is represented as a tempting, greedy, deceitful murderer and devourer of small children and old women” (4). People who read these stories enjoyed or got the gist of the story, but had a completely inaccurate impression of the story.
