I'm norse paganism and I know that if we die in battle we goto Valhalla, and then there's the underworld, so if we don't die on battle we just goto the underworld weather we are good or bad? And I'm in Latin, so my teacher did once say that there was a good and bad part of the underworld, so is this how it is or is there something els

If you die naturally, you go to Hel's hall which is "HelHeim. From what I've read, her hall is extravegent.

One of my Wiccan friends who practices Odinsim taught me that you can be sent to a goddess grove when you die. Like Freyja's goddess grove

If it was a Latin teacher talking, she was probably referring to Roman concepts, not Norse.

There actually is a "good" and "bad" part of Helheim. The "Helheim" part of Helheim is where normal people would go when they pass. "Nastrond", or the Hall of Serpents, is supposedly where the bad go- and are tormented by snakes.

I've read that if you're devoted to a specific God and/or have a patron God, when you die you go to their hall, if you die in battle, you go to Vahalla and if you die in general, you go to Helheim.

Not every deity has their own hall, nor accepts the dead.

I constantly forget what it's called, by the sea-dead go to Ran's hall. I suppose it would be a nice place, sounds a bit too gaudy for me, though.
