How do you know that as a certainty?

Your acceptance of my sentence made it quite clear.

I did not wish for you to be in that cell. It was your actions that brought you to it. Yet I still believe there is good in you.

[laughs sharply, short and harsh]

You've given up on me, Mother. Just as Odin has, just as Thor has.

It pains me that you think I have given up on you. If I had, I would not think of you as I do, nor would I wish to see you again.

Were it not for your unexpected visit to this place, you would never have seen me again.

Only if the choice were not mine to make.

When have they ever been?

On this matter, Odin will not take any of my words.

[laugh, sharp and hoarse]

On this matter and any other. Odin Allfather does not share power.

It is true that he does not bend his will quite easily. Yet in this case there is no changing his mind. I cannot blame him for some of that anger.

You say that as though he ever changes his mind.

Rare as it may be, there is always a chance for change.

Hah.
