God of War Fans Lose Their Minds After Realizing Laufey Was Just a Giant Mom Who Didn't Want Her Son to Die a Virgin
In a twist that has gamers worldwide questioning everything they thought they knew about Norse mythology, the internet has collectively lost its cool over the revelation that Faye—Laufey, the deceased wife of Kratos from God of War (2018)—was actually a frost giant foretold to mother a god who would reshape the realms. The irony? Fans spent years assuming she was just a tragic plot device to motivate a brooding dad, when in reality, she was a cunning giantess who basically pulled a supernatural speedrun of "matchmaking by destiny." Now, the subreddits are flooded with memes comparing her to a cosmic helicopter parent, scheming to get Kratos a partner (her son, Atreus) all while leaving behind cryptic runes that were actually just giant-sized sticky notes for her husband. It's the ultimate "mom knows best" narrative, and the internet can't stop laughing at the sheer audacity of a frost giant using a god of war as a Uber driver for her son's epic journey.
