"How do you feel brother?" Loki asked as he himself felt little awe towards his brother. Even though Thor had lost his eyes, he achieved something more powerful. A power that could influence the cosmos itself.
"Like I can finally control my own destiny." Thor said as he waved his hands. The surroundings which were full of vegetation turned into a desert in an instant.
The desert looked harsh and strong winds blew. And the scale of it wasn't small. It actually covered the entire planet with it. Then Thor again waved his hand to bring it back to the original scenery.
"Damn." Loki mumbled under his breath. He never expected his brother to be at a whole new level. Thor now 'looked' at his own self. He didn't realize that he had a new attire but he could feel all the new markings that were now all over his body.
Even though he lost his eyes he could feel everything around him. In fact he could even feel all of 10 realms without even needing to move a muscle. He could literally kill a person in the 10 realms just by his thought provided the person is not more powerful than him.
Even outside the 10 realms he would still have a power equivalent to God like the Power Cosmic though in a much smaller scale. He felt happy as he finally had the power to confront superior beings. He was sure that if he faced Hela, he would be able to stop her easily. Though killing might be a little difficult as her power was related to Asgard, nonetheless constraining her would be a piece of cake.
As Thor was checking himself out but suddenly there was a flash of light near him. The light came up from the well and flickered in front of him. Then in the next moment, the light transformed into a man.
It was Stephen Strange.
But he looked totally different now. His attire was Asgardian with an influence of Kamar Taj. There was a long staff in his hand that was flashing with small dusts of light around it. Like Thor, Strange too didn't have the eyes, but surprised everybody was that there was a third eye in his forehead. His other two had closed eyelids as he lost them.
If Thor looked powerful from the get go, Strange looked holy in this new setup. He looked more divine than the Asgardians themselves.
"Strange, you with us?" Constantine asked.
"Hmmmm..." Strange as he looked at himself with his third eye. His new attire and everything. He even looked at the brand new staff that he just got. He could feel the power flowing inside of him. And like Thor he too felt omnipotent and all powerful. Especially near the world tree. (this is the second most powerful version of Strange. According to comics when Loki invaded his home and took over the mantle of sorcerer Supreme, he went to the yggdrasil to gain more power. In comics he sacrificed his dead dog, who loki killed before. You can look up Asgardian strange or God strange in Google.)
Yggdrasil had just chosen two warriors to defend this realm. Thor and Strange were the two of them. As all were looking at the two of them, the child that had appeared before came again.
Only this time there were no crow on his shoulders and the crows flew and sat on the shoulders of Thor. These crows would be his eyes and ears in all of the universe from now. Odin too had them, but these crows of Thor were more powerful and all reaching.
"Warriors. Due to special reasons you both had been chosen by the Yggdrasil as it's champions in the upcoming battle, defending the universe. May the cosmos be with you."
"Thank you for all the help and guidance. We will do our best to defend our home and this universe." Strange said. The child nodded at it and vanished into thin air.
"Thor, what did you see in the last 2 days?" Loki asked as he was curious of what had happened when he was in the well. Thor thought for a second and said
"Met different Gods from many eras. They shared their wisdom and power with me. These runes on my body help me contain the power. I also met....." looking at Kratos.
"Who did you meet?" Kratos as he could see Thor eyeing him.
"Your father." Thor said slowly. Kratos clenched his fists when Thor said that. He hated his father to his bones. But he was dead. Zeus was nothing, just some old bones.
"He is dead. His afterlife is of no importance." Kratos said.
"He was a funny guy though." Thor said.
"Strange, what about you? Ready to take the mantle of Sorcerer Supreme?" Constantine asked. Strange nodded his head and said.
"I am. This new gained knowledge and power would be useful in the coming journey..... huh...."
"What?" Arthur asked as Strange stopped mid sentence and his eye shining bright in white light.
"We need to leave. John is now fighting a powerful enemy. He might need help." Strange said.
"Where?" Clint asked.
"Asgard. It's in ruins." Thor replied this time but his voice had immense anger now.
