a wolf so huge the gods chose lies over a fair fight.

means In Norse mythology, the monstrous wolf son of Loki, foretold to break free at Ragnarök and devour Odin.

from From Old Norse Fenrir, sometimes Fenrisúlfr, "Fenrir's wolf" — the name is often connected to fen, meaning a marsh or bog, suggesting something like "the one of the fen" or "fen-dweller," though the precise sense is debated. In the myths the gods, fearing his growth, bound him with the magical fetter Gleipnir, won by treachery after he bit off the hand of the god Týr.
