Nixie the water Nymph

"Why has it suddenly gone darker" Thor asks, as you turn down a narrow path.

You noticed it too, but then remembered Munnin's rhyme. It mentioned her darksome corner. The water nymph must live under dim shadows.

"Do you hear that?" Huggin questioned.

All three of you stopped your horses and listened.

"I hear trickling water and heavy splashes" you say.

"But we're up a mountain, there's only small streams. No full body of water is this far up" Thor says confused.

You shrug your shoulders. Just as baffled as they were.

You follow the sound through untamed paths, deciding it was best to go by foot when the trail became too thick with weeds and thorns.

Thor tied off the horses in a safe place, and Huggin led the way, using his wings to slice through the weeds and clear the way forward.

It was evident not many people wandered this far up.

As you got closer to the sound of water splashing, you heard laughing. A female laugh.

You caught up to Huggin, eager to get though the weeds. He swiped his wing one more time revealing the large body of water you suspected. It glowed with florescent hues of green and blue.

In the distance you see a feminine shape, she frolicked with someone else in the water. Playfully splashing with one another.

You squint your eyes, desperately trying to see the larger toned figure.

"Is that.... Is that Loki?" Huggin asks, bewildered, unsure if he was seeing things.

You looked closer, zoning in on their figures.

You saw the Nymph press her body against the male, and with ease he lifted her up and playfully tossed her into the water.

"No, it can't be. That guy is clearly flirting with the beautiful water nymph. Loki wouldn't-"

"That mother fucker! I came all the way here, thinking he's in danger and he's frolicking with a fucking mermaid!"

"Mermaids are mere myths Sister" Thor chuckles at your mistake.

You shoot him a glacial stare "I see a tail, and she lives in water. She's a damn fish!"

Another loud shrill echoed out as their joyous game of water tag became more hands on.

Your eyes widened and jealous rage filled you, you could now see Loki more clear. His upper body just as bare as hers.

"He better be wearing a swimsuit under that water!" you warn through gritted teeth.

"I don't think he is Sis-"

"Sssh" Huggin whispered, elbowing Thor hard and quickly cutting him off.

Unlike Thor, Huggin could clearly see your jealousy, and your frustrated rage.

"Are we sure this is the evil water nymph that guards the fountain of knowledge?" Huggin asks, skeptical.

"Yes" you say, clenching your jaw "look, Munnin has clearly drawn a picture of the slimy kipper"

You held up the map in front of Huggin, he nodded, seeing a small portrait in black ink, the likeness uncanny.

Thor burst out laughing, amused "kipper.. because a kipper is a fish" he repeated, laughing, proud of himself for getting the joke.

You roll your eyes annoyed. Pissed in fact.

"You know, she doesn't look evil, she's actually quite pleasant to look at" Thor says, eyeing her candidly.
