The secret life of Heimdall amongst the mortals
This is an alias of Heimdall when he’s off having adventures with mortals.
He created the first serf after sleeping with a farmer’s wife. The farmer was very disgruntled — at least until he realized he could put the son to work. They called him Thrall and that’s exactly what he was. All serfs and slaves derive from him.
Having had a go at the lower orders, Rig carried on with his secret mingling. He paid a visit to Amma and in due course Karl, or Churl, was produced. This started the pleasant peasant class. Finally he followed this up Jarl, or Earl, progenitor of the upper-crust top-notch types.
Heimdall aka Rig was therefore responsible for creating the first social class system. He’s got a lot to answer for.
