Alvis's marriage

The dwarf Alvis demands that he shall marry Thor's daughter Thrud. Thor tells him that he admits the marriage only if Alvis have the right answers to thirteen questions. Alvis, who knows that he has the greatest knowledge in the world agrees to that. Thor starts to ask him about humans, aesirs, vanirs, alves, giants, people who lives in Nifilhel, the dead, ginnregin, the secret gods above the aesirs and the aesirs world. Thor get nothing but correct answer from Alvis, but suddenly the sun gets up and Alvis turns, like a goblin, to a stone.
