After Brunhilde has potentially saved humanity from total eradication by the gods during their meeting once in a 1,000 years. Brunhilde proposed RAGNAROK to challenge the gods to give humans a fighting chance, there would be 13 gods and 13 humans, one of them will fight in an arena until either the gods or the humans representing humanity have been killed, and if the humans win. They will be saved from total eradication across all possible universes. If they lose, of course. They will be completely eradicated by the gods...
Shortly after the meeting was over, Geir and Brunhilde were thinking of what just happened. Brunhilde was calm as usual, but Geir seemed to be half-dead with her expression. She then fell to her knees, almost crying. "What is wrong Geir?" Brunhilde asked as she looked down at Geir. "I can't take it anymore Big Sis..." Geir said as she began whining, "Why did you do that!? Why did you object the will of the gods and anger them?! are you asking to be killed?!" Geir said as she continued whining, worried she very much was. "Geir, you are an apprentice Valkyrie, so you may not be able to understand this yet... the bond between us Valkyrie and Mankind... Is far deeper than that of the gods themselves." Brunhilde said to Geir in a soft tone.
"Big Sis..." Geir said in a small and nervous tone, she was in awe that her sister would put her life on the line for the survival of Mankind. "B-But... can mankind actually win? Do you think mankind has a chance against the gods in Ragnarok?" Geir asked as she stopped whining. "No, of course not. Well, at least not on their own." Brunhilde answered bluntly, it was almost frightening how calm she was. "W-Wait so how is mankind gonna win?!" Geir asked, almost having a panic attack. "For that-" Brunhilde said, but then stopped in the middle of her sentence when she and Geir sensed a dark, ominous, and intimidating presence walking towards them.
Brunhilde, unexpectedly. Started to sweat, and was clearly scared. But she still kept her composure, "What... is this?" Brunhilde said to herself while Geir was about to fall to her knees, "I have heard... about the "proposal" you made to the gods." The mysterious man said as he continued talking to the two Valkyries, "It is nice to meet you... i am Exul." Exul said as he put up a polite smile, the dark and ominous presence beginning to wear off. Brunhilde was quite suspicious considering the fact the man had such a powerful presence, but nevertheless she calmed herself down and begun asking questions, "What are your intentions, Exul?" Brunhilde asked with a serious face and Geir got behind Brunhilde, she was also quite scared of the mysterious man, Exul.

"My intentions? it is clear, i wish to save humanity from total extinction across the multiverse." Exul said politely, "...I see." Brunhilde said, skeptical but nevertheless, she trusted the man for now. Exul then noticed Geir hiding behind Brunhilde, "Ah. Forgive me for my impoliteness young one, it seems i have scared you. But fear not, i assure that i am an ally." Exul said as he took a kneel down, putting up a kind smile. Geir then eventually calmed down and asked a question, "S-So you wish to help Big Sis save humanity?" Geir said, still slightly shaken but is warming up to the man, "Of course." Exul replied back to Geir politely. "R-Really? that's so kind of you!" Geir said in shock but also excitement, "However, i cannot promise we will get a total and guaranteed victory, the gods are quite strong themselves." Exul said as he stood up once more, "But i have already collected 13 people to represent and defend humanity, although. They are not humans themselves. The Gods will not know what they shall be hit with." Exul said with a smile. "Hm, i suppose. That could work." Brunhilde replied.
Suddenly, without a single word. Brunhilde then took a kneel on the ground, "Big Sis...? why are you kneeling before this man?" Geir asked, clearly confused. "I did not start kneeling because of him, Geir." Brunhilde replied back to Geir, "Yes young one... she is right." Exul told Geir, with a calm face. Suddenly, a huge hammer would smash Exul, or would have if he didn't teleport at the last time. "It has been a long time, Lord Thor." Brunhilde said calmly. Before them stood Thor, God of Thunder. The 2nd strongest god of the Norse Pantheon, he had long red hair, and eyes of black and gold. The god simply stared at Brunhilde, not even acknowledging the existence of Geir and Exul.
"That was not very nice, not even an excuse me?" Exul said, he was slightly offended but was still calm and put on a smile, "THOR?! The God of Thunder?! Lord of Thunder?! Lord Thor?!" Geir thought in fear as she started shaking, "What is he doing here?! i need to kneel or else!-" Geir said as she was about to kneel but Thor walked past them. "Brunhilde... What are you two scheming?" Thor said in an emotionless voice. "I am afraid i do not know what your talking about." Brunhilde said sheepishly as she begun to sweat.
Everything started to grow intense as Thor's cold eyes pierced into the back of Brunhilde's head, Geir had a look of pure terror on her face as she begun shaking, Exul still put up a smile, then everything returned to normal as Thor continues to walk off. "Whatever, do not disappoint me. Or i'll kill you, both of you." Thor said as he stared at Exul for a second, making it clear that he wont miss him a second time. As Thor walked off, Geir completely fell to her knees and exhaled wildly, this was obviously too much for the young valkyrie.
"I almost collapsed! but you two seemed calm! Mister Exul and Big Sis." Geir said as he looked at both of them, "Did i really look calm to you? Good then." Brunhilde said as she stood up. "Huh? what do you-" Geir said but stopped in the middle of her sentence as Brunhilde was clearly trying to hold in the fear as her body slightly trembled.
"Big Sis..." Geir said as she looked in concern, "It is alright, i assure everything will be alright." Exul said as he looked at both of the valkyries. "Exul, we must gather those fighters, now." Brunhilde said, in a serious tone. "I like your commitment, please wait for a while. Allow me to get them. This should not take that long." Exul said as he waved goodbye to them before teleporting.
And with that, the 13 fighters for humanity were decided. Who would come out victorious?
