Re: Halt! Who are you?
The king's merriment was truly contagious, Sif found. Her smile was wide and she'd finally helped herself to a bite to eat after her hand had been released by the Allfather (still weird). She listened carefully as the Hand and the King bickered slightly over the propriety amongst them, but Thor stumbled in his speech. "...are with friends and lov... love. We are all in love here." What? He was sleep deprived, she'd give him that, but Sif was still a bit puzzled by his choice in words. The adviser had smirked, she'd noted, possibly the first time she'd seen him smile of any sort without it being mandatory. Back to business...
Said Thor: "What is there not to rejoice about?" Said Nathaniel: "The issue with Helheim still lay unsolved."
Right... Thor had touched on the topic but hadn't fully explained what was happening in that realm. As far as Sif understood, Hela was dead, Baldr escaped, and Thea (with Loki) had traveled there on behalf of the queen recently. Beyond that... No specifics. "What troubles the realm of Helheimr?" she asked, openly. They were all 'friends and lov... love', right?
