Freyja, the Goddess of love, beauty, fertility, war, and death—Thor's twin sister and one of the most powerful beings in the cosmos. With such a grand title, the Avengers naturally assumed she'd be paired with someone equally divine, maybe even another god. Steve Rogers certainly thought so, even as he tried—time and time again—to win her over. But none of the Avengers ever guessed the truth: long ago, Freyja had fallen for a mortal.

That mortal was Ragnar Lothbrok, a Viking king whose name still echoes through the halls of history a thousand years later. He wasn't just any mortal—he was the man who captured the heart of a goddess. Even now, after centuries have passed and despite the heartbreak he caused, Ragnar still holds a piece of Freyja's heart. He gave her something no god ever could: her son, Bjorn Ironside. Like his father, Bjorn became a legend, carving out his own place in history.

It's for Ragnar and Bjorn, for the memory of the life they built together on Midgard, that Freyja fights alongside the Avengers. Midgard was their home, and though it's not truly hers, she'll protect it with all her might. But for all the battles they've fought together, the Avengers don't really know Freyja. They don't understand why she's so guarded, why Thor and Loki are fiercely protective of her.

That all changes when, in a flash of light, the Avengers find themselves in a room surrounded by Vikings long dead. Before them is a screen, showing the life of Freyja—the woman, the goddess, the mother. As they watch her story unfold, they see the love she shared with Ragnar, the bond with her son, and the deep pain of loss that shaped her.

For Bjorn, it's a chance to finally know the mother he barely got to see, even if it's just through the scenes on the screen. And for the Avengers, it's a revelation—they finally understand the depth of Freyja's character, the weight of her past, and the reason she's so fiercely loyal to Midgard. Through it all, they gain a newfound respect for the goddess who has been their ally, and maybe, just maybe, Steve Rogers realises that some loves are eternal, even when separated by the veil of death.
