Thor sat on the throne of Asgard, Mjolnir on the floor beside him, and Gungnir in his hand and sighed. After everything was said and done, Odin had had to retire and was living in a secluded castle outside the city. That was several months ago. Thor had removed all the nobles who had been supportive of Odin's previous handling of Loki, and had brought in a new generation of lords. He was happier with the new lot (Fandral, Hogun, Volstagg, and Sif being among them), and he was taking steps to make Asgard more modern.
A caw made him look around and Huginn and Muninn flew in, circling the throne, looking at their new king. "What it is?" Thor asked. The two ravens cawed again and Thor smiled. "She had the baby?" Huginn nodded and Thor leaned back in his throne, tears appearing in his eyes. "Well done, Loki. I wish you both all the happiness in the world."
Loptr felt rather than heard the well wish, and he smiled. His hand went out and stroked Brunhilde's tanned cheek as she slept. Cradled in his other arm, was their daughter. Her skin was a wonderful mixture of her chocolate skin and his light skin. Her eyes were green and her hair had no choice but to be equally dark. She was wrapped in a white cloth, and her little hands were moving slightly. Loptr leaned down and his nose touched her cheek, nose, and forehead. He kissed her and she burbled. "I love you, little Imogen. You and your mother are all I've had and all I've known. Know that I will love you both till the day I die."
