Son of Balder, Forseti was the Norse god of justice. He is described as an extremely peaceful god who spends much of his time meditating. He lived in Asgard in a beautiful building called Glitnir.

This means shining in old Norse, and the house had a silver roof and gold pillars and radiated so much light that it could be seen from a great distance. It also served as a court of justice where all legal disputes among the gods were settled. Forseti was probably the divine equivalent of the logsogumadr, or lawspeaker, that headed Norse legal assemblies. Forseti means 'the one who presides' in old Norse.
