Chapter 3 - CH.3 The Journey Home and Bjorn Past

{Fair warning bit of an info dump for this chapter but its worth it promise}

As Bjorn flew through the skies faster then the naked eye could see he started thinking about the world he had been born into after Ragnarök. Yes Bjorn is a reborn soul that had died during Ragnarök. Apparently it wasn't the end that everyone thought it was. 

Not many of the gods survived and practically no mortals just a small few hundred million survived. From that war the common people of earth were introduced to a cruel reality, the gods are real and that means all of them. When Ragnarök struck the first to stand and fight for the mortals to try and protect everyone were the Asgardians.

Odin and his pantheon including Bjorn's father Thor had been on the front lines fighting for years. During these fights mana and other powers started being introduced into the world forever changing it. Animals became monsters, humans learned to wield power like never before, and even the world grew and became stronger by the release of the almighty powers the gods released. 

As the Asgardians fought and died on the battlefield so did the mortals. Soon the other pantheons joined together to suppress and eventually end the great war Ragnarök. Afterwards the divine, the underworld and mundane worlds combined to create a super world where Bjorn had been reborn.

Bjorn wasn't born with a system or anything special he had just somehow slipped past the part of the underworld that was supposed to take his memories and entered the cycle of reincarnation. He only had one thing extra really happen to him. He was filled with power so much power like no one before.

By the age of one Bjorn looked like a 5 year old child and that is where he kept himself so he could live as a child. He could have adjusted his body to be full grown the day he came out of the womb but he wanted to grow and in turn love his family. Shortly after one year old Bjorn met Ashlaine who he immediately became fast friends with and he spent every day with her until she started her own journey at the age of 7 just one short year after meeting Bjorn.

After Ashlaine left on her journey Bjorn threw himself into his training and into battle after battle just so he could keep his mind off of her. His parent and siblings while worried about his behavior didn't stop him strictly because they were all gods and demigods. They could feel his monstrous power simmering and how overpowered he truly was.

At the age of seven Bjorn had 50 percent of his power sealed he began his own journey. For five years Bjorn travelled to the different lands fighting monsters and learning from the different people and races he came across. He made connections with Dwarves, Elves, Dragonkin, Giants, Demons, And many more spending many days happily with friends and foes alike.

Around the age of twelve Bjorn decided he would go to the human lands. he didn't know what to expect when he went there but lets just say that's where his journey took a dark turn. He met Scala in the first town that he arrived in. She thought he was an orphan because he was covered in dirt still from the travels he had been on to get there.

For the next three years Bjorn live in that town while spending time with Scala almost every day. At the Age of fifteen Scala convinced him to join the academy to be with her. He didn't mind because it was something new and this journey is supposed to be about learning new things. So he enrolled and even quickly became top of his class due to his massive power level and sharp mind. Of course along with his new status at the academy he attracted a few more ladies to his side.

5 years quickly slipped by and Bjorn and company were all graduated and decided to start and adventuring group together. Quickly Bjorn and his women became famous for the women's beauty and Bjorn's incredible strength. At least that what the men remembered, the women on the other hand always remembered his godlike body and good looks. Most would say his most memorable trait would have to be his striking electric blue eyes.

Then next nine years flashed by like a blur for Bjorn. Shortly after his party had become famous his women decided that they didn't want to adventure anymore and just wanted Bjorn to so he could support them. To Bjorn this wasn't a big deal because he could easily complete the missions and quest by himself so he didn't object. That was when Scala started her schemes to drive the rest of the women away from Bjorn.

Systematically she would introduce them to people while Bjorn was out of town for his adventures and wars he was fighting in. She would then tell the women that Bjorn would say horrible things about them while telling them the people that she introduced them to would be so much better for them. Going as far as pushing them to sleep with the others while Bjorn was gone.

She would then record the other women and there scandals. Every time Bjorn saw a new scene of one of his women betraying him he would never make a big deal about it because at first he thought he had done something wrong. Later it became clear to him that Scala had manipulated the others during his multi months excursions. He let it go thinking that Scala was just obsessed with him and wanted him for herself. He could live with that.

The last year it was just Scala and Bjorn so they left the Hold that Scala's father was in control of as the Jarl and moved to Jarl Heith's Hold under Scala's persuasions. Little did Bjorn know the woman was just a scheming bitch and had started scheming again this time with herself as the prize for the other man.

Now that Bjorn is heading home he put those memories out of his head. Looking down at the mountains he was passing over a smile crept upon his face. "BALDIR YOU CRAZY DWARF I KNOW YOU CAN HERE ME! IM FINALLY HEADING HOME YOU CAN COME FIND ME AT ANY TIME! JUST MAKE SURE YOU BRING ENOUGH MEAD FOR MY BROTHER AND FATHER TO. HAHAHAHAHAHA"

As Bjorn's booming voice and laughter echoed deep into the Dwarventop Mountains it was heard by all living beings in the region. In a grand throne room filled with the finest metals gems and constructs filling it sat a large Dwarf on a even larger solid diamond throne. "Hehehe, he is finally done with his journey. I need a vacation anyways. Hmm, GUDIR COME HERE." 

After bellowing into the air around him a sleek and handsome dwarf seemed to materialize in front of him. 

"Your majesty, it seems its time for you to take a vacation." Stated Gudir before the king of dwarves could speak, making the large dwarf smile slightly.

"Good man to know me so well! Hahaha."

"Of course your Majesty. I know how close you and young master Bjorn are. When I heard his powerful voice echo into our halls I immediately set about making preparations for your departure. If I may your majesty I created a spell for you that will give you the ability to see everything and hear everything in your kingdom so you wont have to fear any unscrupulous actions being taken by your family while your away." 

"You know I wanted you to be king just take the job and then I really wont have to worry." Baldir said seriously.

"I could never even dream of it your majesty my life was devoted to you the moment you saved me from father trying to kill me and my mother."

"Geez just let it go you are my brother of course I would protect you two. Just keep watch in my place and let me know if you need anything." With that said Baldir stood and quickly left the throne room to gather the many many casks of mead for this journey north.

"I will forever be your most loyal man brother and will always defend you because of what you have done for me and have done for our people you are the true king." Gudir muttered under his breath watching Baldir leave.
