Short filmTranscript
00:06you are Odin's beloved firstborn daughter he himself handed down the Oracle to ordain this
00:12youn what right did I have to refuse if not Gudrun and I would have been together long ago
00:20just then a calm yet utterly frigid voice rang out from the entrance of Valhalla your father
00:25will never get the chance to know it was Gudrun what does she mean I opened the rift between
00:31Asgard and Jotunheld Nivdog has chewed through the deep roots of Yoggdalra right now Odin is fighting
00:37for his life atop the biflok battling to keep the nine realims from falling the throne of Asgard has
00:42needed a new master for far too long ten years and I never realized how deeply my husband hated me
00:48if I could live it again I would never choose him you have always favored Valder if he can make
00:57my
00:57beloved daughter happy then choose him no father what is it my child I will not choose Valder I choose
01:06him him in the millennial holy war between Asgard and Jotunheim we had faced each other spear to
01:15clashing endlessly across the starry void his movements had been fluid and loose with a single
01:21strike of his scepter he sent my morning star spear flying from my grasp the frigid tip of his stack
01:26pressed to my throat I had been bent over a newly bloomed star blossom and when he materialized
01:30silently behind me he snapped his fingers and the flower withered in an instant I had baked a honey
01:36star blossom pie with my own two hands Loki had dropped out of nowhere snatched the pie clean out of
01:41my hands Loki Brunwilla are you certain you have been sworn enemies your whole lives I have made my
01:47decision I choose Loki walked out of the selection hall with regal composure the white jade square
01:56outside the hall had long been packed with the Acer gods your highness Brunping who have you chosen
02:01is that even a question it has to be Valder everyone in Asgard knows how long your highness has loved
02:07him
02:07if there's one person her highness would never choose it's Loki they tear the realm apart every
02:13time they meet how could she possibly pick him as her sacred marriage partner my chosen betrothal is
02:19my betrothal ceremony will be held in seven days time on that day Hemdav herald of the gods will
02:24announce my chosen fiance to all of Asgard you will have your answer then you will be in attendance won't
02:29you Valdera your highness Brunwisa I shot her a cold dismissive glance not breaking my stride and
02:39walked straight past her the moment we brushed past each other driving the blue part through her own
02:43skirt and deep into her thigh your highness Brunwell why would you do this to me
02:52ah Gudrun are you hurt Brunwell apologize to her now it's the same old routine again the exact same
03:00scene played out in my previous life but now I'm no longer that fool who was blinded by love
03:09this trick won't work on me anymore Gudrun she cut her own dress she inflicted this wound on herself
03:14she's deliberately framing me why the hell would I apologize your highness Brunwilda are you saying
03:20that Gudrun hurt herself on purpose just to frame you I will not jump to conclusions what all of your
03:26eyes have seen is the truth enough everyone in Asgard knows Gudrun is kind and pure she would never
03:33sip thing no sips of this despicable Valder watch your tone when you speak to her
03:42stop everyone in Asgard knows Brunwick was utterly devoted to Valder don't make an enemy of the
03:47entire war god for there was a time when I was truly blinded by love I forgave Valder for anything
03:52and everything no matter how far he crossed the line but that time is over forever I'm going to
03:58ask you one last time did I inflict this wound on you if I have offended you in any way
04:03your highness
04:03Brunwilda I am deeply sorry but you did not need to humiliate me like this out of nothing but jealousy
04:10before she could finish her sentence I lifted my rune scepter of the morning star and slammed it hard
04:15to the ground my father the all-father has granted me supreme judicial authority over the Valkyra legions
04:23if I truly wish to punish you I would not need anyone's permission and I would never swoop to such
04:29pathetic
04:29underhanded tricks you love playing the poor pitiful victim to win sympathy don't you then I'll give
04:38you exactly what you want before the words left my mouth a collective gasp ripped through the crowd
04:50she crashed hard onto the ground at the foot of the steps run with her you have gone too far
04:55I've gone
04:56too far you were the first to show me disrespect leveling public accusations against me without a
05:01shred of proof and demanding I apologize to someone who framed me if anyone crossed a line today it was
05:07never me let's get one thing straight Valder I am NOT your wife not yet you have no right to
05:13order me
05:13around did you see that her highness Brunwilda just dressed Valder down in public she used to move
05:22heaven and earth to protect him no matter what thank you for stepping in for me earlier you must come
05:27to my betrothal ceremony in seven days what difference does it make if I come or not you're

05:35betrothal gift I will choose you and I have a gift for you too one you will never see coming

09:51but

09:58pouch of gold worth far more than three hundred thousand Brock opened the pouch and appended its
10:03entire contents onto the table but what clattered to the floor was not gleaming holy acer gold coins
10:08it was a pile of rusted scrap iron shards of broken metal and worthless rocks a deathly silence fell over
10:14the entire hall in an instant what this is impossible what the hell is this open another sack now the
10:25servant
10:26trembled violently dragging over a second burlap sack and fumbling it open in a panic its contents spilled
10:31across the floor more rusted iron shards of broken metal and a pile of worthless rocks
10:37what's wrong valda have you finally realized you've been bankrupt this whole time if you would
10:44please wrap up the heart of yegazereld for me Brock nodded at once wrapping the gem swiftly and
10:49carefully before handing it to me with both hands I took the silk box my bearing poised and unshakable
10:54the starlight around me seeming to glow brighter with every step with Anna hilled at my side I turned
10:59and walked out a triumphant smile on my face behind us Baldr and Gudrun stood rooted to the spot
11:04their faces awash with shame and embarrassment nothing more than clowns left exposed and
11:08humiliated for all to see the moment we stepped outside the sacred forge hall Anna hilled could
11:12barely contain her excitement your highness Bronwola that was incredible I have never never seen
11:16Baldr humiliated like that in my entire life but your highness even if you're furious with him are
11:22you truly not going to choose Baldr at the betrothal ceremony in seven days aren't you afraid he'll turn
11:27his back on you completely you think I'll choose him too don't you of course every god in Asgard knows
11:32you
11:32would have done anything for him once you would never choose anyone else then in seven days every
11:38god in Asgard will learn just how wrong they are at that same moment in the war gods hall he
11:47slammed
11:48his war spear into the ground a tidal wave of holy asser power erupting forth and striking Baldr
11:52square in the chest father why would you do this to me you dared to disrespect her magis brun huynel
11:57all
11:57for a half-breed demigoddess of low birth faith in the nine realims is fading by the day for years
12:03our
12:03entire clan's survival has depended on the morning star boots from her magis brun hilda and now she
12:08has cut off every last drop of our resources we are ruined if you truly wanted that half-breed whore
12:17you should have at least waited until you were betrothed to brun will until your seat was secure
12:24relax father brun will is just throwing a tantrum her love for me is blind even if she walked in
12:31on me in bed with gudrin she'd cry for a day or two then crawl right back to me like
12:34she always does
12:36at the ceremony in seven days the man she chooses will be me no one else
12:44seven days passed in the blink of an eye on the day of the betrothal ceremony the great hall of
12:48valhalla was packed with the gods of asgard they clustered in small groups murmuring amongst
12:52themselves all speculating on the final outcome the announcement is any minute now who will her
12:57highness brun will choose as her fiance is that even a question it has to be valder there's no other
13:01possibility the wind is that valder has his heart set on another it's been the talk of asgard for days
13:06i think we're in for quite the show today in a shadowed corner of the crowd gudrin stood silent her
13:11gaze fixed on the high dais at the center of the hall flames of malice and jealousy burning bright in
13:15her eyes at that same moment in the private chambers of valhalla i sat before the mirror
13:19dressed in a magnificent gown woven with starlight my makeup flawless and regal i looked every inch the
13:24rightful ruler of asgard a soft tap came at the window
13:33loki a betrothal gift for you but the ceremony hasn't even started why are you giving this to me
13:39so early because i'm leaving i won't be attending the ceremony today try it if you don't show up i
13:44swear
13:44to you you will regret it for the rest of your life loki took a step forward stopping directly
13:48in front of me he stared down at me his dark gold eyes deep as an endless abyss filled with
13:52a love
13:52so thick it could not be contained for a heartbeat that eternal devil may care mockery vanished entirely
13:57leaving only raw overwhelming emotion bitterness longing and a desperate all-consuming restraint i'm
14:03afraid i won't be able to control myself i'll burn this whole ceremony to the ground what i mean is
14:07i might get a little bored and decide to ruin your wedding where's the fun in that after all
14:12loki if you dare not show up you will regret this loki today my fiance is you
14:21the empty night air gave no answer i spun around marching toward the ceremony hall fury burning in
14:26my chest i had barely rounded the corner of the corridor when soft footsteps sounded behind me i
14:31whirled around and saw gudrin standing there walking slowly toward me what are you doing here
14:36outside the halls of valhalla storm clouds blotted out the sky crimson thunderheads rolled slow and
14:41menacing above the white marble corridor that stretched out toward the cliff edge far below
14:45endless lightning split the air above the abyssal rift of jodenheim the dividing line between asgard and
14:49the realm of the giants your highness bronwick i know i am nothing but a lowly half-breed demigoddess not
14:55even worthy to stand in your presence but valder and i we love each other with all our hearts i

21:48sacred bond between my only daughter

22:28we swear
22:38this gem was a treasure from the deepest reaches of jodenheim's star sea a stone so rare even asgard
22:43held barely a handful of its like i could scarcely believe loki had given something so precious to
22:48me i closed the box and set it aside then picked up the gift i had prepared for him the
22:53heart of
22:53drissal i held it in my palms turning it over slowly a flicker of hesitation crossing my face
22:58will he even like it a low amused voice sounded suddenly behind me and i jumped spinning around
23:04with a sharp gasp loki stood there only a loose bath towel wrapped around his waist his hair was
23:10still damp droplets of water trailing slow paths down the sharp defined lines of his chest my gaze
23:15lingering on him for a heartbeat before i snapped back to my senses swallowing hard my cheeks burning
23:20hot against my will loki noticed my fluster a playful smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth
23:26he reached out and plucked the gift box straight from my hands is this for me loki laughed holding
23:31the box high over his head clearly relishing the game i stood on my tiptoes straining to grab the box
23:38the towel around his waist slipped loose falling straight to the floor with a soft thud
23:46we both froze in an instant can you at least put some clothes on we're betrothed now loki picked up
23:53the gift box again and opened it slowly the moment his eyes landed on the heart of yggdrasil inside
23:58his dark gold irises lit up at once as if he captured the entire starry sky in his gaze
24:03the heart of yggdrasil
24:17my cheeks burned hotter with every passing second my heart hammering so hard i thought it would burst
24:21straight out of my chest this is a gift blessed by the nurgs meant for lovers don't tell me you've
24:27liked me this whole time brun welter don't flatter yourself i only bought it because it's pretty
24:34i'm going to bathe now your room is over there don't get the wrong idea
24:42don't flatter yourself i only bought it because it's pretty
24:58At that same moment, in the solitary confinement cells of Asgard, in just seven days, he had grown unshaven and
25:06gaunt, his face haggard, his eyes heavy with exhaustion and cold malice.
25:15Get out of my way.
25:19I swear I never framed Brunwilth. They all banded together to lie to you.
25:24The evidence is irresputable. Why on earth should I believe you?
25:28Valder, have you not seen it yet? Everything that happened that day was Brunwilth's revenge, from start to finish.
25:33What are you talking about?
25:34She hates us. That's why she joined forces with Loki, to humiliate us in front of every god in Asgard,
25:39to ruin us completely.
25:40That explains it. Everyone thought she would choose me, but she picked Loki instead.
25:45You're right. I had no right to blame everything on you.
25:48It's all right. Now that Brunwilth has chosen Loki, no one can keep us apart ever again. We can finally
25:54be betrothed.
25:55You're right. I will hold our betrothal ceremony in the grandest palace in Asgard, and I will swear my vows
26:00before every god of the Nine Realms.
26:02My love, I will give you the very best this world has to offer.
26:05Thank you. I will become Valder's wife. I will rise to become a true High Lord of the Aesir.
26:09No one will ever look down on me again. No one will ever stop.
26:15A grand crystal sanctuary floated amid the sea of clouds above Asgard.
26:19Sunlight struck its translucent crystal walls, refracting into a dazzling, shifting rainbow of light.
26:23Within mist curling slow and soft around the sanctuary's spires.
26:26Two winged angelic sentinels, spears in hand, hovered at the sanctuary's entrance, their bearing solemn and majestic.
26:32Valder rode a cloud of holy light.
26:34Gudrun nestled close at his side, as they arrived together at the sanctuary's gates.
26:37This is the crystal sanctuary forged by Master Brock and Lord Heimdall together, isn't it?
26:41Valder, if we could hold our betrothal ceremony here, it would be perfect beyond words.
26:46Leave it to me, my love. I'm a regular here.
26:50I'm the luckiest man alive to have you, Valder.
26:53Valder smiled back, and the two of them walked together toward the sanctuary entrance.
27:16The two sentinels exchanged a glance, and one nodded, turning to glide into the heart of the sanctuary.
27:22Inside the sanctuary, along the panoramic viewing corridor, Loki and I walked side by side, chatting casually as we drank
27:28in the breathtaking view of the cloud sea stretching out below.
27:31The view here is breathtaking. There's nowhere else in Asgard that can compare.
27:35I can tell. You used to come here with Valder all the time, didn't you?
27:39From this day forward, I'll only ever come here with you. Valder? He can go crawl back to Jotunheim for
27:44all I care.
27:52See? The steward's here to apologize to us.
27:56Your Highness Brunwell, Your Highness Loki, welcome. Your presence honors this crystal sanctuary beyond me.
28:02Thank you for your hard work.
28:03His outstretched hand froze midair. Stormed forward, his jaw clenched tight.
28:07You! Brunwilla. This is your doing, isn't it?
28:11Got a cold, sharp last.
28:12What on earth are you rambling about?
28:15Cut the act! You're the one who revoked my access, aren't you? This is your petty revenge!
28:20Valdur hurried forward at once, stepping in front of Valder, her voice soft yet dripping with malice, her eyes glistening
28:26with faint tears.
28:27Your Highness Brunhelda, I know you resent us, because Valder does not love you. But did you truly need to
28:33go this far?
28:35I don't waste my time on people who don't matter. The crystal sanctuary only hosts the most esteemed Ligids of
28:42Asgard and Jokernhilst.
28:44Face the truth, Valdur. Without me, you are nothing.
28:48Say that again!
28:53Before his fingers could even graze me, Loki moved.
29:00Touch my betrothed again, and I swear you will regret the day you were born.
29:05Valdur stumbled back several steps, crashing hard to the ground.
29:08You dare insult our most honored guests? From this day forward, these two are permanently banned from the crystal sanctuary,
29:15with no chance of reprieve.
29:18Valdur and Gudrun's faces turned even darker. I let out a contemptuous snort, slipped my arm through Loki's, and walked
29:24straight into the crystal sanctuary.
29:25I will never understand how Valdur could throw away someone as someone as noble as Herminus Brunwicka, all for a
29:30lowly half-breed demigoddess.
29:32If you ask me, Herminus Brunwicka spoiled him for far too long, made him forget his place.
29:36Now that Herminus has chosen Lord Loki, it's about time Valdur learned where he stands.
29:40Valdur heard every word, his jaw clenched so tight it ached, his fists balled at his sides until his knuckles
29:45turned white.
29:46Suddenly, his face shifted violently. A spectral figure materialized before him. Tyr, god of war.
29:52Father.
29:53Get back here at once, you insufferable fool!
30:01Valdur turned to the war god's hall in disgrace, Gudrun at his side.
30:05Tyr stood with his back to them in the center of the hall.
30:08He turned slowly, and the moment his eyes landed on Gudrun, all his pent-up fury erupted.
30:13You dare bring her back here? If you hadn't let this woman turn your head...
30:16Brunica would never have chosen another!
30:19You have single-handedly destroyed everything our family has built!
30:22Father, I do not love Brunwith. She has nothing but the All-Faithers' favor to her name.
30:27The woman I love is Gudrun.
30:29She is beautiful, kind, and wields immense purification powers, things Brunwith could never hope to match.
30:35I intend to be betrothed to Gudrun.
30:38Purification powers?
30:40Three years ago, the god of lies placed a strife curse on me.
30:43I was bleeding uncontrollably, convinced I would die.
30:47It was Gudrun who came, broke the curse on my body, and saved my life.
30:52Among the descendants of Odin, there has long been a prophecy.
30:54One among them wields the ultimate power of purification,
30:57able to break even the strongest original sin curses in all the nine realms.
31:00You too carry the All-Fathers' blood. Could it be that you are the one?
31:04Gudrun lowered her eyes, sneering inwardly.
31:06Of course not, you fool.
31:07Yes, Lord Tyre.
31:09Very well.
31:09Tears stared at her in silence for a long moment, before finally nodding slowly.
31:13I approve of your betrothal.
31:16In three days' time, Asgard will hold the Feast of All Spirits Harvest.
31:20Every High Lord of the Aesid will be in attendance.
31:23You too will come with me.
