The third and final season of Netflix‘s Norwegian fantasy drama Ragnarok dropped on Thursday (Aug. 24).

The series’ title may evoke thoughts of Chris Hemsworth’s Thor in the 2017 Marvel blockbuster, which it turns out, is based in Nordic lore. The six-episode-long season followed David Stakston‘s Skam, the modern-day incarnation of Thor, and Jonas Strand Gravli‘s Laurits, the embodiment of Loki, per Netflix’s Tudum.

Ragnarok means “the final destiny of the gods,” and each character is the modern-day version of one of the gods featured in Norse mythology.

Taking place in the fictional Norwegian town of Edda, the series debuted in January 2020 and has since garnered a tremendous amount of interest. Read on to find out how Ragnarok wrapped up the series in its third season.

The Season 3 finale opens up with a prophecy in Norwegian text, which reads as follows: “The nine steps – in Ragnarok Thor meets the Midgard Serpent (also known as Jormungand or Little O) and gets bitten by its poisonous teeth. With its venom in his blood, Thor only has nine steps left to step in this world…”

As scenes of a serene landscape appear, viewers learn that “a new chapter had begun in Edda,” with the town finally achieving peace.

“It was as if the era of the Giants rule, when injustice had prevailed, had been blissfully forgotten,” Isolde (the narrator, who passed away in the very first episode) says.

“It was as if people had become mellow and easygoing, and now everyone brought out the best in themselves,” she continues.

She then transitions to “down in the old, poor part of Edda,” where “a young, strong kid,” otherwise known as Magne, “was preparing for his last exam of high school.”

While studying, he seems distracted, as he unlocks his phone to reveal a text sent to Signy (Billie Barker), whom he started dating in Season 3, saying “I miss you,” with no reply. The two had taken a break due to Magne’s egotistical behavior.

Others have returned to their lives, such as Iman (Danu Sunth), who is shown winning a TV award, and Harry (Benjamin Helstad), who resumes his biathlon career, and volunteers at a hospital to help disabled children.

Laurits and Jens (Vebjørn Enger), who believe Little O has swam away, plan to move out together. This prompts Magne to look through his things and rediscover his old Thor comics and the toy version of his hammer, Mjolnir.

Just before graduation, Magne approaches Signy and apologizes, telling her that he’s “been a total jerk.” However, she’s still unsure as to if she should take him back, and Magne is left sitting alone at the graduation ceremony.

During the ceremony, Magne looks out and spots Harry helping a group of children try their hand at some sports, including Hod — who has a bandage covering his right eye — holding an arrow. Hod, who received his injury after being hit in the eye with an arrow, insists on practicing shooting.

When he goes to take his first shot, he loses his balance and shoots the arrow toward the school, which launches through the window and hits Jens. However, no one notices. Why is this, you might ask? It turns out that everything is in Magne’s head, and is emulating what he read in one of his Thor comic books.

This then causes Magne to imagine what the battle between the gods and the giants would have been like, as scenes from the fictional feud flash on screen, alternating between scenes in his mind and reality.

He snaps back to reality and is the last one in the auditorium, until Signy arrives. She takes him back, and Magne drops his rose that he received for graduating, which emulates him letting go of his hammer.

Although Signy says she doesn’t “expect [him] to go down one knee,” Magne, as the prophecy suggested, takes nine steps and ultimately falls to his knees in front of her. They embrace and get back together.

We then see Magne dispose of his Thor comic books, further signifying that he is relinquishing his power and moving on with the present. He meets up with Signy, Laurits, Jens, and others as they toast to their graduation with champagne. Magne sees a ghost of Isolde appear before him, and he smiles.

Ragnarok is streaming on Netflix.
