Volund, also known as Wayland or Völundr, is a legendary blacksmith and master craftsman in Germanic and Norse mythology. He is best known for his exceptional skill in metalwork and his tragic story of captivity and revenge. The name Volund is derived from the Old Norse Völundr, which may mean "wandering" or "exile." In Hebrew, the name can be translated as וולונד (Volund). In German, he is known as Wieland, and in Old English, he appears as Weland. Volund's story is most famously recounted in the Poetic Edda and the Prose Edda, medieval Icelandic texts that compile Norse mythology. His tale involves being captured and crippled by King Níðuðr, his subsequent imprisonment, and his eventual escape and revenge, which includes killing the king's sons and seducing the queen. Volund's myth highlights themes of craftsmanship, captivity, and retribution, and his character has been interpreted in various ways, including as a symbol of artistic genius and the consequences of unchecked vengeance.
