Darcy found Sigyn outside Stonehenge, where she had attracted a small gathering of onlookers. Though she supposed that was to be expected when someone materializes in a flash of light in the middle of an ancient historical site and tourist attraction. She found her sitting underneath a small tree by the side of the road, with her knees pulled up to her chest, unmoving even when Darcy pulled up and got out of the car.
“Hey.” She crouched in front of her. “You alright?” Dumb question; Sigyn just lost her husband, but it seemed like the right thing to ask at the time.
“The last time that fucking portal broug

The screams lasted for nearly a day, echoing through that wing of the palace like a trapped ghost from dawn until well into the evening, when it was assumed Sigyn had exhausted herself and finally fallen asleep. Loki had listened to them with a knot in his stomach and bile in his throat. He had known Sigyn would grieve; he just hadn’t known the intensity of it, nor that it would feel like claws were shredding his insides.
The next day, he disguised himself as one of the guards again in hopes that he might hear more from others who were perhaps not so careful with their words if they didn’t know who was listening. Sigyn had

After they had nearly come to blows not five minutes after arriving on Svartalfheim, Loki had fallen into a contemplative silence. Thor had returned to Jane’s side, as though his presence could protect her from the energy coursing through her veins.
“You haven’t asked about her.” Thor said, not looking at him.
Because I don’t want to hear that she’s dead. “Because we still need to formulate a plan.”
“She survived the attack. Her guard locked her in her room before she could get involved.”
He was relieved, but that should have relieved him more. Sigyn had proved herself mor

“It really took you a year before you knew your way around?” Jane asked. She was seated across from Sigyn, a warm cup of tea between her hands.
“More or less. Some places took less time but once I left my usual haunts it would take me an hour to find my way back.”
“Hold old were you when you were brought here?”
“I was born here, raised on Vanaheim for a while, before retuning here as a young woman.” Sigyn took a sip of her own tea, and quickly decided to change the topic. “So, is Asgard everything you imagined it to be?”
“I don’t have words to describe how amazin

The battle was over as soon as it began, a blitz of fire and screams that seemed to come in with the wind. Sigyn carefully made her way through the ruins, stepping over the toppled pillars and carefully turning over what stones she could. She may have donned her armor, and still had Theoric’s sword gripped tight, but by the time she had been able to get out of her room, the battle was done. Now, she was helping look for survivors, be they Asgardian or not.
There was a gasping, wheezing sound coming from beneath the pillars, and Sigyn called for the healers and several Einherjar to help her move the stone. The woman wasn’t m

For something as legendary as the Aether was supposed to be, Sigyn could find precious little on it in the Archives, save only that it was gone, destroyed by King Bor at the end of the war with the Dark Elves. A history clearly written by the victors. Nothing on how to stop it or control it. Nothing on how to help Jane. She contemplated using the bowl, but it had been cryptic as of late and of little help in anything.
“Lady Sigyn.” Fandral came up behind her and Sigyn rolled her eyes. This lack of privacy was really starting to bother her. “Have you heard? Thor’s brought Jane to Asgard.”

“When I said ‘go get her’, I didn’t mean literally.”
The healers already had her lying on the table and were surrounding her. Sigyn had dragged Thor as far away from her as he would allow, but kept herself hidden behind a column so that Jane couldn’t see her.
“I had to bring her back here.”
“Have you lost your mind?” she hissed. “The All-Father will be furious with you and who knows what he will do to her.”
“He will not do anything to her.” For all he had changed, Thor was still as stubborn as he’d ever been. “Sigyn, I had to bri

The celebration went well into the evening, and while Thor had begun the night with his friends, he eventually drifted on his own. Fandral had two women with him, one seated on each side. Sif had stepped outside some time ago and had not come back. Volstagg was entertaining a group with stories of the battles they had fought across the Nine Realms. As his stories grew louder and more exciting, even the children that Sigyn was entertaining with tricks ran over to him. He wanted to enjoy it with them, to laugh and drink himself senseless but he couldn’t. Thoughts of Jane and a future kingship weighed heavily on his mind.
