Chapter 90 Loki And Hatch And Surprise

~Pov Loki~ (third person)

Loki followed Slavarsh, without asking questions. The duo, walked through the hundreds of corridors, of the castle. Until they arrived in front of a door. The frost rune, was on the door. Many others too, many he understood, some he didn't.

" Whats that?" Loki asked, stopping in front of a statue, in front of the door. The statue, had three figures, all shapeless, yet they had shapes, it scared Loki. It was like the statue was alive.

" That is a worship shrine, of the three infinites." The giant answered.

" Three infinites?" Loki asked, confused by the words.

" Odin didn't tell you?" Slavarsh asked, enraged by his conclusion.

" No, i know nothing of this."

" Fine, i will tell you. This is more important then the test. Listen kid, the three infinites are the parents of everything. They created everything, understood? The war, where your father died, it was fought for this very statue. Odin wish to not worship, our creators. The giants didn't take kindly to this. First he kill Ymir, then he want to forbid the worship of the infinites. A right, given too us, by the infinites themself. So we attacked. Sadly we failed and we even lost you.

As for the statue. They are personally created by the three infinites and given to those who they deem worthy. The beings who worship them, will gain power and prosperity. You see the symbol on the statue, next to the infinite changing figures. That is the symbol of the infinite three. Anywhere, this symbol is made, the three have been and created personally. ( The symbol looks like this # but it stands straight and every line made with this ~)

With the history lesson done, let's go." Slavarsh said, as he opened the door.

Loki changed his focus from the statue and followed Slavarsh. As the door opened, a mist seeped into the bulging and the freezing cold hit them in the face. Loki shivered, as he hugged his fur coat, Slavarsh gave to him. His spear awkwardly rested on his shoulders, as Loki tried to retain as much body heat, as possible.

Slavarsh and Loki stopped in front of two pillars. Standing 8 meters apart, the pillars reached the hight of 7 meters. Weird white moss, grew on the two, giant stone pillars. They had several golden runes on them. Some of them, Loki had yet to see in the book.

" Step through the pillars. They create a barrier, protecting us from the outside world."

" What will happen if i do?" Loki asked, concerned by the outcome.

" You will take the test, now go." Slavarsh said, as he pushed Loki.

Loki stumbled through the two pillars, landing in the snow, on the other side. His spear laid next to him.

Loki picked up the spear and looked at Slavarsh. Taking a few steps forward, Loki tried to enter the Gate way again. But found an invisible barrier between him and the castle yard.

" You have to prove your worth, if you want to get inside." Slavarsh said, as he sat down in the snow.

" Don't worry kid, were in the inner part of Nifelhiem. The worst you can meet here, is a phantom golem. You probably will only fight lesser undead, with ice powers." Slavarsh said, trying to encourage Loki, to try his best.

Loki fastened his resolve and got ready. Taking a step forward, he was met with a snowball, to the face.

" Bahahahaha." Slavarsh laughed, as Loki fell, by the surprise.

Loki got up again, this time, full alert. He checked his surroundings, while standing in battle position.

Five meters away, from Loki. The snow, slowly disappeared and a small wold appeared. Small sharp teeth, to accompany the lower part of it's head and the only part thats left. The dog didn't have a skull, only it's jaws. One could see it's throat. But the rest of the body, had some gray hair and grey meat. Meaning it still had some flesh and bones left.

Loki looked at the creature and felt no disgust, only remorse. Pointing his spear forward, Loki took his first steps towards the small wolf. The wolf barked and backed away. Trying to seem, intimidating, but failing miserably. Even if he pitied the wolf, Loki did not hesitate to rush forward and go for a killing blow. The wolf jumped to the right, leaving a trail of ice, behind it.

Loki hit he ground, where the wolf just stood and the earth shook slightly, while a small light formed. Making some of the snow, that was where the wolf fled from, disappear. Noticing his mistake, Loki tried again, this time he didn't charge blindly. Having control over his charge, by running at moderate speed. He still had the spear in front of him.

The wolf answered his charge, by doing the same. The wolf jumped up, at Loki and Loki stabbed the spear into the wolf. The wolf, seemed to lose it's breath. A sorrow full howl left it's mouth, as Loki fell on his knees. Next to him, fell the wolf. Small white lights, left the wolfs body. As it slowly disappeared. The wolf looked at Loki, it's eyes, full of fear, scared of dying again.

Loki was panicking, breathing way to fast. Making the frosty air enter his body. Making the young boy cough.

Slavarsh watched, not carrying about the boy's current situation, as this was the test. Was the boy ready to kill, ready to live, without the help of the giants.

" Kill two more creatures and you will be allowed to return." Slavarsh said, as he snapped, his blue chubby fingers.

Loki watched as Slavarsh left, his head making no effort to follow his movements.

Loki was left alone, in the snow. He shivered and felt weak, the spear laid next to him, covered in a blue slime.

~Time skip~

" You ready." Slavarsh said, as he entered the room.

" Yes uncle, i have practiced all the runes you asked me."

" Good, hope your confident in your art. As your last trial is to carve those runes onto your body." Slavarsh said and received an instantaneous reaction. " What, how am i supposed to concentrate, while going through all that pain?"

" Ahh, stop complaining. The father figure of a giant, will make it's child go through this trial. It's the final step before becoming an adult. Even if you're young. I'm afraid I don't have more time, to teach you."

" Fine, I'll do it."

" Good, here, this is the knife i used to carve my flesh and the knife my father used and grandfather used and great grandfather, so on, so forth." Slavarsh said, as he handed Loki a black knife.

" This is made of a stone called flint. It's the primordial stone of life. It existed even before nifelhiem and muspelhiem. There exist only few of these stones and they channel the powers of runes, perfectly." Slavarsh said, as he readied everything, needed for the ceremony.

Loki stepped into the circle, created by Slavarsh, some seconds ago and got to work.

~Pov mc~ (Third person)

" Crack" Was heard from the egg, waking the couple up.both of them looked towards the egg and saw a small crack. Exited, Alice stood up and ran over to the egg.

" Ragnar, it's hatching." She said, with an exited voice.

" I can tell." Ragnar said, as he lazily got out of the bed.

" Come on, show some enthusiasm, we've been waiting for day, for months." Alice complained, as she waited, for the egg, to hatch completely.

The egg cracked once more, as Alice jumped in excitement.

" Get over here, now!" Alice ordered.

" Fine." Ragnar said, with a pained voice, having to get up, out of the comfortable bed.

" Creck, crack." The egg sounded, as a small claw pierced through it. After the claws, a part of the head appeared. It was a red, little cute thing, with a black, wet nose. The rest of the head, slowly made it's way through the shells. Two white horns appeared and then the little thing opened it's eyes. Green and a black, sharp pupil, like most lizards have.

The little thing opened it's mouth and said. Thank you, for helping me exist. The one, who owns this realm, is now ready to meet you, Ragnar.

" How do you know m..." Ragnar didn't get to finish his sentence, as he disappeared from the place.

~Somewhere else~

" E name?" Ragnar said, finishing his sentence at another place. In front of them stood a dragon. He was made out of fire and some kind of black stone.

" Hello Ragnar, it's been a while." The Dragon said. But Ragnar didn't listen, he simply stood there, dumbfounded by the turn of event.

" Why are you here? The hall of chaos, does not create realms for those alive. Did you?"

" Yes Ragnar, i am dead. Now, don't take it to hard. I died like i wanted. Anyways, onto the good stuff. You hatched the egg, so i will answer any question you have." The dragon said, as it sat down. His appearance was terrifying, scaring Alice.

" Paarthadox, why did you die, no, i know you. You will probably count that as a question."

" Correct, i indeed would." Paarthadox smiled, happy Ragnar knew him, so well.

" Okey, first question, who is my father and mother?"

" Good question Ragnar, right to the point too, great for you. As to answer your question. Your fathers name was Bjorne. He was the second born son, of existence. One of billions. In other words, he was one of the first. Bjorne, is the creator of chaos and therefore, chaos is now your responsibility. As for your mother. You have heard of her kind. They were known as sun and vermin. The and is added, so you don't get a headache. Anyways, she was the first sun and vermin, that became a seventh dimensional being and married your father. Like your dad Bjorne, she too is dead. First question answered, next.

" Why did earth have norse mythology greek mythology and so on. How is that a possibility, when there are infinite amount of other religions?"

" I was hopping you would never know, but a promise is a promise. Earth was an illusion. Your mother created a perfect world for her child, before she offed herself. Your father help too, of course. Since I don't want to waste another of your questions, I'll tell you more. Alice was out on earth, by trickster and your Apostle Leif, became a reality through you. That's why everyone randomly died, it's because you weren't there anymore and it didn't need to exist anymore. On to the next one, hit me with it. Come on, i want to spend some time with my sister.

" Who is Sun and I'm a dinosaur?" Ragnar asked, making Paarthadox freeze.

" How, how did you snap up on that?"

" I don't know, about when said, I'm the most special being here. Or something along the lines."

" so he gave it away. Fine, I'll allow you to ask three questions about him. So I don't say everything."

" What most special about him?"

" Fuck, okey, a deals a deal. The halls of chaos, were created for one reason and one reason only. So Sun could live there. Later on, it evolved into this, as he got lonely. Sun, was a very good friend of your father, almost to the point, that your father chose a gender. Way before he actually did. But the biggest thing and the most hidden secret, in almost all of existence. Is that Bjorne asked his father, a very interesting thing. He asked the seventh dimensions race, to be named after sun. Making them known as Sun and dinosaur."

" Okey, next up. How do you and sun know each other."

" How did you even figure that out, there was no clue, what so ever."

" You talked like you knew him."

" Fine, okey alright. I'll tell you, but not everything. You will know my past in the future anyways. I'm Paarthadox, born in a time, long before this. Existence had his first child, when ai was born and would soon have his second child. Some time later, my sister died. I went on a rampage killed many god and goddesses and adopted a family. Then some more billions of years later. I managed to become a seventh dimensional being. The first mortal to ever achieve that, btw. When I was in the sixth dimension, I met him and later on, I would become a good friend of Bjorne. Nowhere near the level of what Sun did. But we were friends. Anyways that's how I met him. You didn't ask for our adventure together. The third question can not be about me."

" How does the burning thing in space, have anything to do with Sun."

" Bjorne, wanted something, to remember his friend by. Even if he could talk with him any time, so he made the sign of life, a memorial stone for his friend. Now, you are done and so am i. Tell the others i miss them and Alice, you have the right to compete for the right of leadership of the evil faction. Bye Ragnar, we might meet when your finished. Remember, Alice is the one who need recognition by the hall of chaos. you just needed Suns blessing." Paarthadox said, as Ragnar disappeared.
