||before the whole reveal about Rune being the mastermind, I planned for a Cronus moment where Auðumbla would tear him open and rip his devoured son out of him. That was the end of the trial and the transition to the temple fight. Buuuut. Yknow. Bleh.

@ProseSyntheta “If humanity wants these nine realms to persist... You must confront he who created them.” They look at Hal and grin. “Twilight has come once more, Haraldr. The true Ragnarök... Shall we begin?”

@ProseSyntheta “After that is the wolf of annihilation, followed by the sword of annihilation.” Between them, they hold a projection of Yggdrasil and the nine realms. Ice freezes the bottom, a wolf devours the middle, and a sword cleaves off the top.

@ProseSyntheta “Yes, yes! I look forward to watching the fabric come undone! Oh, it will be so interesting!”

@ProseSyntheta “You have no need to worry about Dionysus. I am not concerned with their world. It is true that things will spiral out of control... But that power is inferior to mine.” The shadowy hands clasp together so the boys can twirl, giggling.

@ProseSyntheta “Though, you still held back. If you’d been willing to sacrifice your allies and use the entire temple, that may have done us in.”

@ProseSyntheta New clothes form on their bodies as they climb out onto the pillar, allowing their previous forms to dissolve and blow away in the wind. “See? No hesitation!” They smile and clasp their hands together.

@ProseSyntheta They smile widely, as if it were perfectly natural. “Yes! You’re finally fr-”

@ProseSyntheta “Don’t you understand, Haraldr? You were being held back.” The boys circle each other, looking at their favorite puppet. “That guilt, that shame... They were weights on your heart. You had to overcome them to reach your full potential.”

@ProseSyntheta Báleygr, the one with flaming eyes. Jǫrmunr, the cosmic. They are many. They are one. Countless aspects of the same being.

@ProseSyntheta Rune is Rúnatýr, the god of runes. Váfuðr, the journeyman. Þekkr, the welcome. Ginnarr, the deceiver. “If I am the creator, then I can even bring another creator to pass, right?” The creator is Óðinn, leader of the possessed. Wōðanaz, the lord of frenzy.
