Correct paragraph?

IS THIS OK TEACHERS? DOES IT MAKE SENSE? THANK YOU!

Deep in the forests of Norway, played two young boys, Bjorn and Olaf. It was a crisp autumnal day, winter’s chill rode the breeze, and the forest dew shined like silver. The two boys had been playing all afternoon, when they stumbled across the entrance to a network of caves. Bjorn, the oldest and strongest brother, had been coercing younger Olaf into the caves, often taunting him for his displays of physical weakness, short stature and girl-like disposition. Bjorn saw Olaf’s venture into these caves as a test of strength, of his passage from boyhood to manhood. It was, of course, a Viking tradition for men to do so, to prove their physical ability, that, in the event of their death, they may please the God’s and gain entrance to Valhalla. After much name calling and play fighting, Olaf mustered the courage to agree to venture into the caves, only on the condition that Bjorn would lead the way. Naturally, Bjorn was displeased with this proposition, but it was not long before the boys reached an agreement, which had them venturing into the caves together.

" Additionally, "Gods" is plural, not possessive, so you should not have an apostrophe in the word. It is a rather well-written paragraph. Good for you!

Since there are two brothers, you should say "...the older and stronger brother." You don't need the comma in the third sentence: "...all afternoon when they." Additionally, "Gods" is plural, not possessive, so you should not have an apostrophe in the word.

It is a rather well-written paragraph. Good for you!
