Dellinger

Dellinger is a figure from Norse mythology. He is a dwarf who is mentioned in the Prose and Poetic Eddas. Dellinger is known for his parentage, being the father of Dagur, the god of the day, with Nótt, the goddess of the night. This parentage symbolizes the transition from night to day. The name Dellinger itself is believed to mean "the shining one" or "day-maker," which aligns with his role in Norse cosmology. While not a prominent character with extensive narratives, Dellinger's existence highlights the intricate relationships and symbolic representations within the Norse pantheon, particularly concerning the celestial cycle of day and night. His story, though brief, is a small but significant piece of the larger Norse mythological tapestry.
