Did the god Loki kill his father? Don't bullshit me with marvel shit. Give me the Real myth without fucking hollywood
"In Norse mythology, Loki does not kill his father. Loki’s parentage is quite different from what popular media like Marvel portrays. According to the myths, Loki's father is the giant Fárbauti (whose name means "cruel striker"), and his mother is Laufey or Nál (whose name is sometimes translated as "needle"). Fárbauti is a Jötunn (a giant), not a god, and Loki is actually of giant heritage.
There is no mention in the surviving mythological texts of Loki killing his father, Fárbauti. In fact, Loki’s complex role in the myths revolves more around his shifting allegiances and mischievous nature. He causes plenty of trouble for the gods, especially Odin and Thor, but nothing involves patricide.
Loki’s most infamous actions include:
His role in the death of the god Baldur, when he tricks Baldur’s blind brother Höðr into killing him.
His eventual imprisonment by the gods after being responsible for numerous calamities, leading to his punishment where he is bound to a rock with a venomous serpent dripping poison onto him until Ragnarok (the end of the world).
So, in real Norse mythology, Loki’s father is not a major part of the stories, and there is no narrative about him killing hi s father."
