The Coming Storm
Asgard had seen a rare period of peace. That peace was about to be shattered. Dark forces gathered in a far corner of the realm. Trolls, dark elves and giants fathered their forces and prepared for an assault on the city and the cursed Asgardians.

Soon the city would fall and Asgard would be theirs to rule.

Alfun looked at the assembled troops and smiled. They would make a great distraction. Alfrun knew they wouldn’t succeed in defeating the Asgardians and taking the city. Countless times they have tried and failed. The Asgardians always won.
Until today. The troops were a distraction until the real weapon could be brought onto the battlefield. With the two, the Asgardians would fall. This would be their Ragnarok. The final battle for them.

Alfrun ran her fingers lovingly over the parchment. How very nice of that dwarf to give her this wonderful piece of parchment. With it she could bring about the downfall of Odin, Thor and the rest of Asgard. Then she, Alfun daughter of Eisa and granddaughter of Loki, would sit upon the throne of Asgard as queen.

“Send them!” she said. “I have to start the ritual.”

Treg grunted and then bellowed orders. The troops started moving.

Aslief

Odin leads Aslief back to the audience chamber, looking at her through his one eye, his expression firm.

"The daughter of lines of both Thor and Loki shalt be tempted thrice.
Three forces, with powerful and dark gifts shalt come before her.
The Dokk Alfen shalt offer wealth and power and sorcerous knowledge long hidden in the darkest places,
The demons, knowing Surtur wilt soon be slain, shalt offer magics by which they mayst be summoned, regathered and commanded.
And finally Hel itself shalt offer to open for thee, and all its dread gifts wouldst be given to her.
And these secrets art so carefully guarded, e'en Odin's eye cannot see what she speaks to these three supplicants.

Instead, the next thing known of her when she hast taken audience with each of the three ist she shalt hath the back of the final Queen of Asgard, standing before the throne itself.
And none shalt know or say until the final moments...

With the Queen's back, wilt Aslief then stab her sister in the back and take o'erwhelming power,
Or wilt she die nobly, defending her sister's back to the last?"

	"Together but apart, mine intentions known naught but to me," Asleif said, quietly. "Ever under the eternal eye of suspicion." Little surprise, truthfully. There was much more of Loki's line in her than in any of the others. "I understand, grand-sire. Thank-thee for telling me of this." (Reply to this)(Parent)
