You know all those "bosses" we've been killing?

Kinda seems like we've been murdering this world's natural spirits, so Odin can move in on the territory.

this also occurred to me when I first started killing bosses. Each boss is located in it's own biome. Each biome has it's own unique enemies. What happens when you start killing bosses? Enemies from other biomes start spilling into the Meadows. We are quite literally throwing the natural order of the world out of balance.

After you kill a few bosses, Odin will start appearing randomly in the world and just kinda watching you from afar.
