 Northvegr - Rydberg's Teutonic Mythology   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
It is attended on his behalf by one of his servants, who in the mythology is called Byggvir, a name related both to byggja, settle, cultivate, and to bygg, barley, a kind of grain, and by his kinswoman and helpmate Beyla.
So important is the calling of Byggvir and Beyla that they are permitted to attend the feasts of the gods with their master (Frey).
As we see, Loki characterises Byggvir as a servant taking charge of the mill under Frey, and Byggvir characterises himself as one who grinds, and is able to crush an "evil crow" limb by limb with his mill-stones.

 shepline: Definition of Elf - reply
The names Vanir and Alfar (light elves) may have been either synonymous, since the expression "Aesir and Alfar" meant "all the gods", or designating a difference in status between the major fertility gods, the Vanir, and the minor ones, the elves.
The Vanir Freyr was the lord of Alfheim, the home of the light-elves (meaning elvenhome), and he had two elves as servants, Byggvir and Beyla.
Like the Vanir the elves were associated with fertility and in late fall, the "alfablot" (elven sacrifice) was celebrated by drinking beer.
