In Norse mythology, Yggdrasil is an immensely large Ash tree, that is central to the cosmos, the branches reaching up to the heavens and the roots deep into the underworld and connecting the nine realms.
The Ash tree is also mortal, and must be protected,
It is inhabited by many different creatures throughout. Níðhöggr, a serpent who gnaws at the roots of the ash tree, an unnamed eagle who resides in the canopy, the stags, and Ratatoskr the squirrel who travels up and down the tree passing messages between the eagle and Níðhöggr.
