The Lost Queen (Druig x OC) (Eternals)

Part 42: Home

Before Druig and Sprite had the opportunity to question anything, like who Heimdall was, or why Reina was shouting at the sky, a beam of light shot down around them causing them to disappear, leaving only an odd looking symbol behind. Lines of all colors surrounded the group, lifting them into the air through a tunnel of light. The sensation was unlike anything else. They felt as if they were flying and in a way, they were. The wind rushed around them as they were pulled through the tunnel. They sped up the farther they were pulled in, accelerating by the second. Until they fell.

Hela, Thor, Val, and Loki all landed on their feet gracefully, while Reina wobbled a little, still getting used to the feeling again. On the other hand, Druig and Sprite immediately fall to the floor with a thud. Looking around, they found that they were no longer on the island but inside a beautifully designed structure. A dome surrounded them, glistening gold around the edges with small details etched into the metal on each wall. A hole was cut into the wall to one side and an archway leading onto a multicolored bridge was opposite. In the center there was a platform where a man stood.

The man was wearing all golden armor and a gold helmet with horns. In his hands he held a sword that was sticking up right in the middle of the platform. The man looked at them as he pulled the sword out of the platform and the cellular hole in the wall shut, his bright orange eyes being offset by his dark complexion. He scanned the crowd and when his eyes met Reina's, he bowed before standing up straight.

"Your Majesty, I'm pleased to see you back in Asgard." the man spoke regally

"Heimdall. You've known me since I was an infant, There is no need for formalities." The man, Heimdall, seemed to relax at this and smiled.

"It's good to see you back, Reina. Asgard had missed you and I can't say that I haven't"

"I've missed it to Heimdall, and it's good to see you again. Allow me to formally introduce you to 2 of the Eternals. This is.." Reina got cut off

"Sprite and your fiance, Druig '' Heimdall reached out a hand but both Sprite and Druig were too stunned to move.

"Sprite, Druig, this is Heimdall. Controller of the bifrost and watchman of the gods. He can see into all realms, that's how he knows your names."

"That's cool." Sprite regained her composure and reached out a hand to Heimdall, "But one question. What is the bifrost?"

"It's the gate. The highway to our world, if that makes sense." Reina explained

"And what is that?" Druig asked, pointing to the bridge with different colored streaks, sticking out from the building.

"That's the Rainbow bridge. It leads into Asgard."

"And to the Palace," Loki added

Loki, Val, Thor and Hela started to walk across the bridge. Reina looked back at Heimdal and gave a last goodbye before following her siblings with Druig and Sprite close behind. As they walked outside, Asgard began to come fully into view, shining in the bright sun. The buildings were tall but one stood above the rest. It glimmered gold in the sun, its point reaching to the sky, higher than any skyscraper they ever saw on earth. Val paused for a second and looked back a Reina

"Welcome home Reina."
