I wasn’t sure what to expect when it came to the games being over, but one thing was for sure, my grandfather didn’t disappoint when it came to a coronation party. Stepping into the grand hall, I was greeted by the aroma of freshly cooked meats, breads, and the lingering smell of flowers. It was by far the most elegant event that I had ever seen, which was saying a lot considering the parties here never seemed to end.
“Welcome, all!” Odin’s voice echoed through the grand hall with a force that caused everyone to turn their eyes to where we were. Odin stood on his feet with his throne behind him, me at his left, sitting, waiting for my future husband to arrive.
Nervousness filled my body at the thought I was going to be married or mated, as some would say. In my mind, I was too young, still searching for fun and adventure. Although, on the other hand, I also knew that fun and adventure weren’t a luxury I was allowed to have.
