Name

Idavoll lends its name from norse mythology:

In the middle of Asgard lies the emerald-green grassyplain known as Idavoll, where the Æsir meet to decide upon important matters. Its literal translation: Plain of Activity or Field of Deeds. The plain is surrounded by the 13 halls of the Æsir gods and in the middle of it grows a large ash with the name Yggdrasil. Many floods spring from the roots of Yggdrasil and one of them is called  Mimir's well.
