Camelot is a legendary castle and court associated with King Arthur.

In Norse mythology, Útgarðar (literally: "Outyards", plural of Útgarðr; anglicized as Utgard, Utgardar and in other ways) were areas which surrounded a stronghold of the jötnar. They are associated with Útgarða-Loki, a great and devious jotunn featured in one of the myths concerning Thor and the other Loki, who competed in rigged competitions held in the Outyards. These outdoor arenas contrasted with the putrid, indoor cave where Útgarða-Loki is said to have dwelt, when chained, in the 12th-century Gesta Danorum.
