"There seems to be a lot of people here."
"It just seems like that since they are crowding to see you, Van."

Like with the market near the River, there was also a market near the area where the Branch supposedly stops since the beginning of time. Also like the River, none of the giants seem to know how the Branch works, and why it was rotating with Midgard as its center.
Based on Van's understanding, Midgard was like the plaything of the Aesirs-- entertainment. They use it as a medium to settle their wars. Creating their own little army of humans to battle with each other in order to resolve even the simplest of arguments. Ranging from proving who is right to something as simple as who will get what food.
