Mythic stories fall into several categories. There are sagas, epics, and fantasy stories called "märchen." These stories depend on something difficult for us to conceive these days: Simplicity or the "Logic of the Fairy Tale." In other words: things are just what they are, because that’s just the way they are.
These stories frequently examine or teach a moral lesson, exalting it or exposing a particular flaw. If the story is a parable or doctrinal, one of its goals is to delineate the characters as "types" in order to illustrate this basic lesson, characters which make the story whole and who are also contained by it. The lives of these "types" can and must have links with the past and the future but their role ends with the story.
In a magic story, the flow is more important than the logic. Man invented monsters to explain the entire universe (Norse and Greek mythology, for example). Once man began to live in an organized way, with a "social contract," an abyss was opened up between his instincts and his thoughts, and monsters started to REPRESENT another universe altogether: man's inner universe. The pagan prefigures the social and offers us a glimpse of the deepest reaches of man's soul, articulating a primordial, savage universe, populated by elves, fauns, ogres, faeries, trolls, and demons.

I learned recently that Thing was the traditional Norse (and possibly Swedish) term for a formal council of local landowning families to which every family sent a member.
That is to say, "How'd the thing go?" is either a casual sentence of today or a dramatic question of the sagas.

The mythic tenth-century Icelandic poet Egill Skallagrímsson, hero of the Egils saga, was well known for his cunning and his skill with words. In his poem Sonatorrek (“Loss of Sons”), he expresses gratitude to Óðinn for blessing him with the skill of poetry, which had saved him many a times. He writes:
“In good ways too
the friend of wisdom
has granted me
redress for affliction.
He who does battle
and tackles the hell-wolf
gave me the craft
that is beyond reproach.”

Of all the Viking heroes, few are as famous as the fearsome Ragner Lothbrok. Old Norse Sagas recount his countless heroics, such as his infamous siege on Paris in 845 AD.
