[ ϟ ]—– There are countless places where the veil at times grows thin, between worlds, between life and death, places where memory settles into the ground and the very air.
The valley below stretched out as a vast expanse of pale green, the sky above it washed silver by approaching dusk. Its grass bowing in restless waves, unsettled by the wind, was beautiful from a distance, and thunderer now stood upon the ridge overlooking it, blood stained hands hanging idly by his sides.
Here the veil was lifted still, ghostly slivers of mist and residue of souls still thick as syrup upon ground and leaf alike.
Warriors had died here; wildflowers already pushed through soil enriched by crimson, and time, that tireless and silent sculptor, had softened the blotches of blood ever so slightly, silence now draped over a place that had sung with war-cries.
The wind carried scent of distant rain and the faint metallic tang of iron, petrichor weaving through it ever so slightly as distress returns to the god's mind and physique.
A night and a day had passed since the war here had ended, yet he had not moved, tethered to the place and the mortal realm by the heavy chain of duty, rage still simmering beneath the languidly heaving chest. Ever-present flame of it was momentarily doused, by something moving in his peripheral, a subtle shift in the rhythm of things, like a current altering its course beneath calm waters.
' Have you come to mock me, or bring me to justice?'
Their ways were shaped around Odin's will and Odin's law, and whenever thunderer moved beyond them, called upon by Men, answering their prayers and cries for blood, the inevitable would come to pass. Answers were sought out, by Allfather or those who were bound to do his bidding, whomever deemed it necessary to act.
' I have done my duty, and you have done yours when all these warriors perished. I fail to see why you felt the need to return to this field.'
