A Job For the War God [long, long ago: Asgard] (tag: Bragi, Tyr)
“Shhhhh. We have to be quiet.” Hermod opened the door to his father’s hall and looked around. The coast was clear. This was going to be so much fun. They just had to be sure he didn’t get caught. That would really spoil everything.
Odin and Frigg had gone out for the entire day. They were probably doing something royal. They had needed someone to watch Hermod and his younger half-brother, Bragi. Balder had run off with some of his friends and Hod was blind. Being blind made it hard to watch over his younger brothers, even when Hermod promised not to go running around the hall. That left a few other choices. Thor was just too… Thor. Vidar was off learning something important. So Tyr was the one recruited o watch them with Hermod’s parents were away.
They had finished lunch when Hermod got a really great idea. He wanted to introduce his brother to his best friend. The problem was, Tyr had told them not to leave the hall. Hermod could run in and out without their big brother knowing he was gone. But Bragi wasn’t as fast as he was. That was the challenge. Luckily, Hermod was a very bright boy. His mother told him that all the time. He was able to figure out what to do.
If Bragi couldn’t go to his friend, he would bring his friend to Bragi.
He had not taken into consideration how loud hooves would be on the floor. And eight hooves were double the noise and double the echo. He would just have to move quickly to find Bragi.
“Bragi! Come here! Quick! You have to meet him!”
