Hammer of the Gods Page #5

He won't let you have it. You know this.

You'll be rid of me soon enough.

Vali, what's going on?

You think Thor is the only

one who seeks the hammer?

You foolish old man.

Sif!

Do what you came to do. Find the hammer!

Go!

I will return.

I can't tell you how long I've

awaited your return, son of Odin.

I am Fenris, son of Loki.

The wolf-god. I know.

Then you must also know why you're here.

Aye.

- But do you?

- Of course.

You are here to die, brave warrior.

Are you ready?

Your mortal heart betrays you.

It pleases me that I should

be the one to teach you fear.

The hammer, the instrument

of my brother's demise,

and the only thing that

could ever render me mortal,

so I keep it close right here.

- Why?

- Because you can't help yourself.

You are drawn to the hammer.

Your lust for it insatiable.

Well, thank you for tending it for me,

but I'll be needing it back now.

Come and take it.

Well, that wasn't so bad.

To kill a brother's slayer

is a rare opportunity, indeed.

He killed me as well, they say.

Except he was not a

favored son of the gods,

so while he rots in the underworld,

you dishonor him by staying here.

Well then, he and Ulfrich

can honor each other.

Freyja!

I guess she didn't see that coming.

Wait!

What?

I'll see you again.

on the plains of Asgard.

Until then, sister.

Nothing can save you now, brave warrior.

I only hope my brother isn't insulted.

This is almost too easy.

Just the same, say hello to him for me.

Tell him yourself.

We have to go.

Vali's path. We'll go around.

No!

Wait here.

Are you sure?

You did it, Thor.

Freyja?

She died well.

Reunited with Baldur. As it should be.

...the hammer.

May I--

may I hold it?

How can I guarantee you

wouldn't use it against me?

I still owe you a finger.

Only you can wield it, remember?

I'll think about it.

And so...

they sailed away from Midgard's edge,

each lost in their own

silent contemplation.

Though they'd won the day,

they left more on that

isle than they'd taken.
