Okay so book 2 focuses on the creation of the Aesir, Vanir, and Jotuns. Here is part 1, "Prometheus's Creation."

Among the Titan's ranks was Prometheus, and he was different. He was the Titan of advancement, and he always looked at things not as they are, but as they could be with a little help from him. The other Titans were scared of his power and he hated the other Titans, for they created only for the pure joy of creating. So they shunned Prometheus and refused to listen to his council and he did the same to them. It was he who had protested the plan to capture Shal'vor, but been mocked and ridiculed for it. Full of anger and hate, Prometheus wandered the nine realms, until he came to Asgard. This realm was a huge city floating upon a wild sea, and here he was struck with an idea. He found a volcano out at sea, and in the heart of the boiling mountain he forged a large shaft of metal, and then he brought it to the top of the mountains and it was struck by lightning. Out of that came the first spear. Then in the same manner he forged an axe, and finally a sword. As he admired these weapons he cut himself with all three weapons, and from his blood came three beings. The very first Aesir. From the spear came Odin, from the axe Bor, and from the sword Tulkas. Prometheus was elated with his creation, he had never seen anything like the Aesir. As of yet there were no living things beside the Titans. Prometheus was full of joy, and decided to show the other Titans his creations.

And part 2, "The Death of Varuna." Prometheus gathered all the Titans together and proudly presented the Aesir. But as the three creatures stood up proudly and faced down the Titans, Hespera was full of love for the new creatures, but Shal'vor looked and was afraid, for the little creatures worried him, for no apparent reason at all. Shal'vor began to whisper among the ranks of the other Titans, and they were filled with fear as well. Ma'at herself looked upon the creatures and knew what bloodshed they would one day cause, so she was afraid. Even Hespera began to doubt them. Then the Titans all commanded Prometheus to toss the Aesir into the void so they might never again be seen. They sent a minor Titan, Varuna, to ensure he completed his task. Prometheus, Varuna, and the Aesir went to the edge of the void, and Prometheus prepared to throw them in. But as he did so one of the Aesir cried out to him, and anger against the other Titans boiled inside him. Prometheus attacked Varuna viciously, in a last ditch attempt to save the Aesir. Prometheus was never a warrior, so despite his clever tactics, he was pushed to the edge of the void. As Prometheus was about to be destroyed forever, the three Aesir attacked Varuna from behind. He was pushed into the void, and Prometheus was saved. Prometheus was greatly thankful to the Aesir, and he gave them the gift of speech, so he might communicate with them. Proemtheus realized he couldn't kill his creations, so he hatched a plan.
