 The Death of Baldur   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Baldur the Good, having been tormented with terrible dreams indicating that his life was in peril, told them to the assembled gods, who resolved to conjure all things to avert from him the threatened danger.
When Baldur fell, the gods were struck speechless with horror, and then they looked at each other, and all were of one mind to lay hands on him who had done the deed, but they were obliged to delay their vengeance out of respect for the sacred place where they were assembled.
The next morning he besought Hela to let Baldur ride home with him, assuring her that nothing but lamentations were to be heard among the gods.

 Norse Mythology -- Baldur's Death
Baldur, the son of Frigga and Odin, was the most handsome and noble of all the Gods.  Forever appearing in the form of a beautiful young man, he was the God of Light and Spring, of all things Right and Good, the best loved among all Aesir.
So the Aesir held a meeting to make plans to forestall Baldur's death.  They decided that every creature in heaven and on earth must swear a holy oath to never do harm to Baldur.  Frigga herself undertook the administration of the oath, from fire and water, giants, dwarfs and elves, human beings, animals and plants.
Not suspecting anything, Hödur went along with Loki.  Mortally wounded, Baldur sank to the ground.  The horrible prophecy of Wala had come true.  Only Odin's word, that Baldur's death had been prophesied, protected Hödur from the immediate revenge of the Gods.  He would be killed later, though, by Odin's son Valli.

 Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn (PC) Reviews. PC Games Reviews by CNET.   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Baldur's Gate was an impressive game, and the subsequent role-playing games published by Interplay were also generally excellent, so a lot of players will understandably have very high expectations for Baldur's Gate II.
Baldur's Gate II picks up soon after the conclusion of the first game: A stylish cinematic sequence explains that your character is captured, jailed, and experimented upon, presumably because of his unusual lineage.
Baldur's Gate II even has an optional tutorial sequence, a huge manual (much of which is devoted to describing all the spells), and a collapsible interface so that you can play the game full screen.
