Auden’s Blessing
Three thousand years ago came the twilight of the gods.
The betrayal of the Fire God reduced all civilizations to ashes, along with order itself and the glory of the divine realm.
Three thousand years later, upon the new lands created by the King of the Gods, the deities were gradually reborn.
The silent and ruthless King of the Gods.
The beautiful and gentle Queen of Heaven.
The innocent yet cruel Fire God.
The endless conflicts between gods and giants, the blessings left behind for a thousand years, the memories preserved within the Hall of Valor…
To me, all of it had once been nothing more than tales recorded in ancient scrolls. Even my encounter with Loki felt like a destiny long foretold.
Only after becoming engaged to him did I realize that my marriage to Odin had once been the happiest time of my life—
and that Loki himself had been the one who destroyed that happiness with his own hands.
Had there been no memories left by the God of Love, had the war between the two tribes never begun, I would have known clearly what I was meant to do.
To remain by Loki’s side.
To accompany him—from rebirth… to destruction.
