In Norse mythology, the Sun (Sól) and Moon (Máni) are personified deities who are chased across the sky by wolves, symbolizing the cyclical nature of day and night. Sól is pursued by Sköll, a wolf intent on swallowing her, while Máni is chased by Hati. This eternal chase explains the solar and lunar eclipses, which occur when the wolves temporarily catch up to them. Ultimately, during Ragnarök, it is foretold that the wolves will succeed in their pursuit, leading to the end of their celestial journeys.
