Grípisspá is a prophetic dialogue between the valkyrie Grímhild and the hero Sigurd. In this exchange, Grímhild reveals glimpses of Sigurd's future, foretelling his fate and the challenges he will face.
The poem begins with Grímhild questioning Sigurd about his origins and destiny. As Sigurd responds, Grímhild unveils a series of prophetic visions, foreseeing his heroic deeds, betrayals, and ultimate demise. The valkyrie warns Sigurd of the treacherous path ahead, cautioning him about the deceitful intentions of those around him.

The prophetic nature of Grípisspá contributes to the overall depth and complexity of the Völsunga Saga, blending the mythical elements with a sense of foreboding. The poem serves as a narrative device that heightens the suspense and drama, offering both characters and readers a forewarning of the challenges and tragedies to come.
