lapithae: A Relationship Chart that (kinda) simplifies things, without getting too much into the Fate-only lore.Notes:Attila was Kriemhild’s second husband after Siegfried was assassinated. In some traditions, Gudrun/Kriemhild arranges for Attila’s death, others Etzel is purely a political pawn for Kriemhild’s vengeance and survives, or in some interpretations they even genuinely fall in love. He’s more antagonistic towards Gudrun/Kriemhild in the Nordic epics.Brynhildr and Attila were siblings via King Budli in the Volsunga Saga.Siegfried and Brynhildr had a… complicated relationship in the Nibelungenlied, filled with lots of deception and confusion as Siegfried tried to play matchmaker for her and Gunther (Kriemhild’s older brother). This eventually led to Brynhildr’s frustration, and the beginnings of Siegfried’s assassination plot. -- source link
