The Nine Realms

Individual worlds that contain multitudes of creatures, cultures & people, all of which diverse in their own right even when they are of the same species/race. Each one of them having unique characteristics that define their world such as Muspelheim also known as Muspell for being the Realm of Fire & home to the fire giants & the so called End of Asgard, Surtr the Brave & Nidavallir for the land of the dwarves. A race famed for their great craftsmanship & their affinity with the Realm between Realms These 2 are but some of the characteristics of the worlds & the history that they contain.

But the focus of this story is not about realms, but a being, a god, whose loyalties & beliefs will be tried & tested, their strengths brought to their limits & their path to a future unknown to all from every practitioner of prophecy even to the Nornir & the king of Asgard, Odin the so called Allfather, could pierce the shroud that is the future

(Y/n - Narrator POV)

It has been a long time since it all happened, from the felling of Ymir, the Chaos of Realms, the corruption of the Valkyries, the Jotunn genocide, Tyr's supposed death, Freya's banishment & now the so called Devastation of Midgard. So much has happened in such a short period of time. (short for a god at least). & feel it is only the beginning of something far greater than anything that would ever come about.

My role in some them was in the major degree, for it was by the order of my lord & father, Odin himself. Even though I align more along the teachings of my brother Tyr. I still follow his commands as ever without question to at least have him trust me or anyone at least.

But even then I knew his paranoia would have him question everything & everyone  as it always overpowered his own wisdom & even when he "trusts" someone, you can be certain that he has his ravens to watch your every move & intent.

I wondered why would he do all of this, for nothing is eternal but the vastness of space & universe itself & no matter what he would do it would not stop his own death no matter what sorceries, artifacts, incantations & alterations he does, it would end the same as those who try to stop their own prophetic downfall end up being the cause of it in the first place.

But let's go back a bit before the Chaos of Realms, where peace still persisted & the races would still be considered companions before everything went in disarray.

Midgard
(Y/n POV)

Somewhere in Midgard, in the mostly snowy areas of the north, in the center of deep pit of lake a large amount of ships, machines & people of all manner of sizes & races from humans, jotunn, elves (both variants) & asgardians to all the intelligent civilizations in all the 9 realms are working on a large temple dedicated to Tyr, the aesir god of war whose wisdom sought ways to prevent war & usher in an age of peace & prosperity in its place.

Lake of Nine: Temple of Tyr construction site.

Temple bridge

We then see a rather sizable amount of people pulling on a  chained large cargo carriage

Y/n: (straining) Come on, now heave with all your might lads! Now heave!

Y/n & large group of people are seen pulling/pushing a rather large & significantly heavy load of materials slowly across the bridge in which is fortunately enchanted to take the very heavy materials for the center-point of the temple.
