Chapter 4

Malekith had been working hard to gain the trust to some of the neighbouring worlds. And being married to Odin's daughter had helped a lot with the proceedings.

Trade opened a lot of doors to bettering Svartalfheim. They have been rebuilding it slowly but surely.

Some worlds they were not welcome on, despite Rebecca's presence. They knew of the death and destruction Odin and Hela had caused. And so they refused to have anything to do with them.

Many times Rebecca had to step in and negotiate a treaty between Svartalfheim, Asgard and the different worlds.

Malekith could see that his wife had a gift of working with people, she had a kindness in her heart that attracted others to her, and a strong will that made most of the leaders of the worlds see reason. Her peaceful approach did not always work, and the dark elves were always prepared for that. To protect the Queen of Svartalfheim, and Princess of Asgard.

And those men who did not respond to talks of peace, responded to violence. She would defeat those who dare attack her, and that earned her their respect.

Svartalfheim grew to be a magnificent world that others wished to see. Its dark beauty drew people in. And over millennia it grew to be respected.

Malekith did end up on a world that he wished to trade with. The proceedings with the leaders went off swiftly, but afterwards he was attacked by marauders, who did not wish for their people to have any dealings with aliens. He stopped their leader and beheaded him.

The authorities of that world acted swiftly and captured many of the marauders. This world was known as Ntoko.

Ntoko was a great place where rare metals were found, and as such, made some of the best weapons, pots and pans. Although the people weren't as advanced as Asgard or Svartalfheim was. And that brought in fear and insecurity to the natives, that was the main reason why they attacked Malekith.

Three years came to pass and the union between the Ntokonites and the dark elves grew in strength, they were allies.

Rebecca was sent to Ntoko to speak about having some of their people come to Svartalfheim and build a great structure for a large training facility. She travelled by ship with a few of the elves, and when she arrived, she was ambushed, injected with a strong sedative, and her elven companions were killed.

The next time Rebecca woke up, she noticed her hands were tied to the table, and her feet were tied to the chair she sat on.

'Seriously! How is it that I can survive a fight with my sister for two days, with fatal wounds but not stop an ambush?' she thinks, annoyed with herself.

She observed her surroundings and saw she was in an old, rundown room.

"Well, if it isn't the Queen of Svartalfheim and the Princess of Asgard?", a woman asks mockingly.

"Who are you?", Rebecca asks, glaring at the woman in front of her.

"I am Mix, wife of the man your husband beheaded three years ago. But I bet you don't even know about it", Mix says maliciously.

Rebecca's eyes widen, she knows of it. Malekith told her what happened with the marauders. He was the only one Malekith had beheaded here.

"I know of it", Rebecca tells the woman.

"Then you must know how I might feel, considering your husband murdered mine, and now we are seen as traitors to Ntoko", her voice full of anger.
