Her tears turned to gold before touching the ground, which have been scattered all over the places she went through.

On hers frequent trips, Freyja was traveling aboard a carrige pulled by cats or mounted on Hildisvín, his golden boar. She also wore a coat of feathers that, when put on, transforms it into an eagle, allowing her to move through the sky faster than any other god.

Freyja appeared casually when the Brisingos (four blacksmith dwarfs) were forging the brilliant Brisingamén necklace. She was so delighted that she wanted to keep it. She offered them gold, silver and jewels, but the dwarves were not interested in wealth, what they wanted was her; she got the collar by sleeping one night with each of them.

Due to her beauty, she was also called Mardöll (sea light), Gersimi (jewel) and Menglödh (cheerful with her necklace). When she appeared dressed with her necklace, no man could resist her charms. She chose her lovers with total freedom, no god could force her to take who she did not want.
