Chapter 6: Affections touching the boundaries of Time.

Suddenly they glanced over a slim man, his eyes watery over such a heinous act "In fact, she is willing to fling upon my spell, is reckless and yet brave." He indeed has that strong image as Freya, however, there is something gentler in his eyes, as if understanding Atreus' pain of losing someone he loved. "It is a pity that my boar is killed rather heinously, I suppose it was not you." as he tried to grip Atreus' hand.

"No, we do not… it was Sif…"

"Sif.." That young man frowned slightly as if trying to recollect the face "It has been centuries since I seen that face, aside from that she boasted about her hair…but…" He felt shivers down his spine and his head spinning back and forth. "No…it cannot be…Freya what have…" Atreus quickly gripped him, hearing his slowed heartbeat on his chest. "Since you created that! Do you know how to reverse it.." Atreus shouted loudly. "There should be a way, we made a promise…"

Freyr shook his head slightly "I am afraid not…" Atreus watched him, shivered quietly "It is best if you can bring me to Alfiemn… and there I can speak what happened…" Kratos nodded quietly and lifted up Freyr out from the shadows which he shouted the last words, like Njord all in agony and pain to close the library.

"We better move quickly…"

Kratos quickly swoop up the fragile body of Freyr and quickly ran over. "Do you know what happened master Freyr…" Mimir questioned anxiously "Must be Freya…"

"I cannot answer you Mimir…" Freyr glanced at the duo weakly. His head spins back and forth "I need to be bathed in the rims of the light of Alfiemin…I must go back…."


Soon they reached over to the travel room, Atreus' heart sank slightly as Kratos weakly placed him down the floor.

"Freya seeks revenge… I told her it is too much, there is no use holding back anger, because of her child…" Soon pools of blood formed on the marble floor. Atreus placed Mimir's head on the wheel. "Master Freyr is livid we better hurry…"

"On it"

Atreus landed the Bifrost on the slot and quickly turned the tower of Alfheim. Kratos watched silently with a heated breath. Freyr coughed a little, as he watched the leaves changed back and forth to a beautiful Wedgwood blue hue.
"Did he impart some words…He is worried for you, Lord Freyr…"

Freyr coughed slightly, as he wiped the blood from his mouth "I know…" Atreus slouched slightly as he felt his arm ring back and forth. "You mean Gullinbursti, your father kept him well while you are away…and he helped us in the times of darkness…"

Slowly they glanced upon the comforting light at the distance from the door. "At last…" It somehow overwhelmed his body as he cracked a small smile. Atreus silently opened the door, with Kratos carrying the body with his arms.


The light somehow bathed into the frail body of Freyr. Somehow the melodies of the Light Elves echoed the land. "The light…" Freyr mummer quietly, as Kratos stumbled upon the sinuous walkway of Alfiemin. Somehow
Mimir looked over a small boat with ornate designs on the body. "Little brother bring the boat to the docking port." Atreus nodded silently and soon he ran over to the boat. He slowly grabbed the hilt and dragged it. Kratos muster his strength to laid Freyr on the boat, and somehow petals fell upon his body. "Mimir thank you for bringing me here, I hope you do not take my actions in heart…"


"Do you know anything about that spell…"

Freyr smiled weakly as the lull of the light overwhelmed his body. "That… I do not know..but that woman..what is her name Mimir…"

"Sigyn my lord…"

Freyr mustered a chuckle "She… it has been a long time. I knew there is something about…" He coughed again. Blood which stained his tunic. Atreus' eyes welled up into tears as he saw Freyr's shoulders relaxed slightly. "There is got to be something..There is got to be something.." He gripped his hand quietly. "Believe it…"

Mimir mumbled wisely "Lad let him drift to the light…Freya's magic took a toll on his body. He already told us what is needed."

Kratos muttered silently "You are free…" as he draped his weathered cloak into his body.

"Please, should my sister have a change of heart, tell her that I loved her."

Freyr's eyes slowly drifted off into a deep sleep and soon a light Elf bowed down to the trio as he made the way to the boat.

A whispery voice came over Kratos' mind "Thank you for bringing our master back…" Mimir blinked a little in gratitude. "May the light of Alfheim guide you even in times of darkness." And slowly the boat drifted to the warm light.

"Now what are we supposed to do?" Atreus' voice cracked slightly, as his tears fell down on the pavements, forming ripples of light.

She must be back

She must be back.

Mimir mummer slightly to the duo "We better be careful… Freya's revenge seems to blind her that she hurt her own family. Another tragedy in the making…"

Kratos shook his head slightly "Come we must make do for today." Kratos thought over Mimir's words, perhaps he is right. Revenge blinded all, including people close to him. "That I agreed with you, brother…" as he watched Atreus fighting the tears empathically. "Sigyn is strong.. she will find a way. Come let's move over to Tyr's travel room shall we?"

Atreus nodded quietly. There is nothing, not even a powerful Vanir god could break a spell. "…yes Mimir.." Perhaps the only comforting thought that Alfheim seems to be even more beautiful, now their leader has returned to the motherland.


Many evenings later

The sun seems to peek gently, and Atreus took his first heave of air. Kratos stood quietly at the edge of the house, heaving in the fresh air. "You lead the hunt…"

"Yeah.." and somehow Mimir was tossed to Atreus. Mimir's heart sank, just thinking what more he could do, to save Sigyn. "I promise to take care of the lad."

Kratos nodded quietly.

"Take care Father."

Atreus ran over the tracks, he could spot one or two easily. Could it be deer? No, it looks like a boar. Suddenly he hears a tweeting of a small bird. "You seems distracted lad…"

Atreus swallowed slightly. "It is nothing." However, that sound grew layered along with the rustling of the leaves. It tweeted again, Atreus picked up his bow and arrows and aimed at that thing.

His eyes widened to that sight. Wait? Could it be?

"Come."

"Lad no offence.." and soon he felt the weight dropping down. And soon a fog came over them. Mimir cursed a little for Atreus to leave him behind. H only glanced that he left his bow and quiver behind.

Somehow that bird transformed into that weathered face, and he can recall that armband. Without hesitation, Sigyn held him in his arms.

"It is good to see you…"

"it is good to see you…" Atreus kissed her gently and the world grew still.


Note: So thank you all who have stayed through my long hiatus in updating the story as lately, things have crazy at work (Like working in a pop-up event) and my exhaustion from dealing with real-life stuff. I will stop doing fanfics to focus on my Icarcus novella and maybe you will see me return it once in a while. I thank you guys for supporting this fanfic as this fandom has been lovely in giving me the support and love, even if I doubt myself story wise. I feel that I have grown a lot as I do that fanfic (alongside with my slight research of Norse Mythology). Yes, I want to revisit them but maybe another time as honestly fanfic took me a long time (especially the long ones) to update.

Anyway if you are itching for God of War content, I have a few fics on my tumblr for God of War Week if you want.

As usual feedback and comments are always appreciated!
