[Firekeeper POV]
'So, this is how Asgardians travel', she thought to herself.
She had agreed to Thor's invitation and Wanda also had agreed to follow alongside her as her disciple.
Of course, her brother was reluctant to part ways with his sister, but Wanda seems to be very eager to follow her. She seemed more than willing to follow her in fact.
"So, this is what you meant by how transport is the foundation of a civilization. I will admit that this one is pretty advanced.", Selph said from inside her soul.
She was not going to admit that she only thought about transportation due to Lola. Throughout the very short journey on the Bifrost, Wanda clung onto her like the child she is.
Maybe because this is her first time away from her world.
"Welcome to Asgard!", Thor declared as he led his guests into Asgard. She looked upon the domain of the gods.
Although they may not be full-fledged gods, they all held a spirit of divinity within them.
However, in the middle of biggest building, she could sense a god-like being. The only difference with the lords was that he was not immortal, thus weaker.
But, she could sense that Odin was near his ascending. He shall one day travel to realm and return as strong as ever. Thor seemed to call it Valhalla.
The being inside is strong enough to contend with the likes of Alduin. Sure, the being inside would have lost but Alduin would have been left with injuries even eternity can't heal.
This speaks plenty of his strength. Alduin was the strongest of the everlasting dragons, yet he would not be able to take this being lightly. The huge amount of energy was overwhelming.
It appears to be filled with confidence with, but a hint of anger mixed inside. Why anger? She will have to find out.
"They know their architecture, that I will admit.", said Selph from the depths of her soul once again.
"Bah! They're useless golden constructs.", Falkor argued back from inside.
The architecture of Asgard was truly different. It looked medieval yet modern at the same time. It was mixture of the arcane and technology.
It reminds her of home. Sure, the buildings here were not dark or in ruins but this must have been what Anor Londo looked like during its golden age.
She could see gold everywhere. It was truly a world of 'gods'. Unfournately, she had no time for sightseeing as of the moment since she will now be meeting the king of the gods, the ruler of the nine realms.
Thor took Wanda away as he said Odin wanted to talk to her alone. Wanda looked at Thor like an angry cat before being told by her to follow him.
"Welcome Ms. keeper, to Asgard." She gazed upon Odin for the first time. He radiated pure power.
"Odin likes peace?", Falkor muttered from within.
"Thor must have been blind."
Indeed, what she saw before her was not an old and benevolent king but an aging king who once conquered the nine realms and ruled them with an iron fist.
He reminded her of the lords. She had no doubt that Odin has wiped out one or two realms. It must have been because Thor was young, but he did not 'see' the bloodshed behind this man.
Unlike the ancient one, Odin didn't need to use the time stone to stay on par with other dimensional beings. What he has is what he owns with no ounce other source of power.
The only outside power may have been the spear inside his hand. That aside, he would have looked like a kind old man if it weren't for his very presence filling the room.
His presence would have been relevant even if he was a normal human being.
At this moment, he was not a scholar.
He was not a soldier.
He was not a father meeting his son's friends.
He was a king through and through.
"If I recall correctly Asgard has not done anything to offend its guest, Ms. Keeper."
She did not understand where he was going with this, but she answered, nevertheless.
"Indeed, thou hath not done anything that offends me,"
"Then, why have you brought an army inside my country."
"I'm afraid I do not understand thine words."
"The army you hide inside your soul. Why have you bring them to this country? They hold enough power to destroy Asgard itself."
It appears that his blind eye was more than it seems.
"I see, do not worry as they are but mere refugees inside mine soul."
"I will take your word for it then.", Odin replied though she could tell that he did not let his guard down one bit.
The statement of the everlasting being able to destroy Asgard was in fact, false. After all, Asgard is his domain.
She cannot bring anything into his domain from her domain without his permission. Even if she managed to bring one out, they will be severely weakened.
She could bring them anywhere else in this universe but not in Asgard due to its ruler being the absolute master of his domain.
"Now, I have requested your presence for one reason. I want you to help Asgard."
"Help? My dear Odin, what can I do to help Asgard? It is the most powerful civilization in the universe according to thine son."
She intentionally used the word 'dear' to put them on equal terms. Odin might be a king, but she was no subject of his.
She will always help all those who ask for her aid but never to one who demands it.
"Asgard 'was' once the most powerful civilization but not anymore. My time in this plane is coming to an end and I will go on my journey soon but as you may know, Asgard does not need two rulers."
"So, does thou wish to kill thy adopted son?"
"Kill him? Ms. Keeper, you thinking process astounds me. No, I want him to be free. I am talking about another one."
"Another one?"
"My daughter, Hela, the goddess of death. She is currently sealed by me in another realm. She will escape the very moment I pass and I fear that Thor cannot handle her."
"Goddess? That will be most troublesome dear Odin. Thou wish for me to kill a goddess for no reason."
"Do not worry, Ms. Keeper for I shall compensate you with one thing you need most. Despite your impressive skillset, you lack an impressive weapon. I shall ask the dwarves to forge you a scythe in exchange for your aid in times of Asgard's Ragnarök."
"I shall never kill another being in exchange for mine own benefits."
"I also hold news concerning your old world." This caused her to think further.
"Mine world?"
"You do not think that you are only one who survived the destruction of your world?"
"My dear Odin, I never survived anything. I was just born anew as the world was destroyed. I hath already died once but was reborn once again as the flame.", she corrected him.
"Very well then, I have news of a new city for you.
A city of blood where it's nightmarish abominations roam.
Yet it remains a fantastical place of healing.
A place so obscure it is of legends even among the wider universe and I happen to know the exact location of it.
The legendary city of Yharnem."

This is Chapter 31.
I have returned to the POV of our beloved firekeeper.
And from now on, I will be doing a bit more world building.
Also, I just watched around 30 videos on bloodborne to expand my knowledge of it.
What do you think of this chapter?
What do you think about the way I wrote about Odin? Does he seem odd or fitting since there were little mentions of him in the MCU.
Also, if you have any advice on world building and any other stuff that you think I need to improve, leave some comments.
Have some idea about my story? Comment it and let me know.
