It had been a normal day for everyone. People were going about their own business, some on the station, some on Midgard, some in Asgard... you get my drift. But they would not be separated for long. Reunions that were never meant started to happen.

"The lights that I followed," she explained. "I had gone out to fetch the pigs in, but then I was in a forest that I didn't know, but it was inside. So I asked the Gods for help, and a snake appeared. I knew it for Loki, so when it told me to follow, I did. The lights showed me the way to you, even taking me into a little room that moved." She hugged herself at the mention of the little room, clearly not a fan.

"The Gods will visit us? This place is right strange, Mam," she added. What had she done, that she now had a place in the stars with the Gods, she wondered, then looked around at her mother's place while Hródolf just reached for his Nan with his now-sodden hand and babbled happily at her. He grabbed a handful of Bryn's skirt and shook it as he told her stories.

Bryn put her hand over her mouth. Shocked that Loki would go out of his way, again today, to help one of her children. This was beyond anything she would ever be able to pay back. She sent out a little thank you of a prayer, and hoped that it would not confuse things.

Her fingers dropped from her mouth and she smiled. "Yes, it is strange the strangest I have seen in all my life. But you get used to it. The hardest part will be the language. But only Thor and Loki may visit." Though Loki was a surprise, she did hope her daughters offered him reprieve and not bother. The room they stood in was the club she had built. The bar in the front obscured where they were standing from the door.

Bryn offered her hands to Hródolf offering to lift him up if he would let her. "We can go in with Brenna. It is more like home than this."

"The language? Why? How should we speak?" Astrid knew that the people to the south spoke in a different tongue, and traders often spoke with strange accents, so it made sense to her that different places would have different tongues, but she had never learned any of them. Did the stars speak a completely different language to any she might already have heard?

Hródolf knew what that gesture meant, and laughed at his Nan before pulling her skirt up to hide his face. Astrid grinned down at her son. "He likes to walk, until he doesn't. But he's hiding from you now. Thinks you won't be able to lift him if you can't see him," she explained to her mam. "Take your Nan's hand, little wolf, go on. We'll go see Aunt Brenna now."

"Benna!"

"Our language has been swallowed up by others, most of the others speak a language..." She dipped into english as she did. "English." As there was not a word for it in their language. She slid back into Norse as if that was what she'd spoke the whole time. "The Gods will be the only ones that will understand you easily."

Bryn was tickled by when he hid in her skirt. "Oh! Where did Hródolf go? I cannot see him." She gasped softly. She remembered playing those games with her babies. It made her heart ache in a way that wasn't unpleasant.

"Now we must be quiet. Brenna may be sleeping." Though she hoped some of the noise had roused her youngest daughter.
