Re: Loki/Thor
They would try. They have a very powerful bargaining chip in hand, now that you have let them imprison me. If you violate their demands, they will declare war on you, call you traitor. And so, if they tell you they want me here, where more than you might watch over me, where more might be accountable, I do not like to think of the consequences of you removing me. Not very good diplomacy, I should think, if the people you have tasked with keeping a hawk's eye on me tell you they feel safer with me pinned under glass.
And that is why you will never be a good king. Trust.
