Years Later~
"Mama? Are you thinking about him again?" Amora asks. She's grown up so fast. "I am. Sit down with me, why don't you?" Amora nods, taking a seat. "You look tired."
"Being Queen tires you out."
"I suppose it does. Will I ever be queen?"
"There's no way to tell. Eirik will become King once I pass, and then if he has a kid, then his kid will inherit the throne."
"But if he doesn't, and he passes?"
"Then remember how your tutor taught you. You will be Queen."
"Was I a spare?"
I turn to her. "My dear, the stodgy court members may think so. But you are not just a spare. You are my daughter. You are your father's daughter. You are Amora Lokidottir, Princess of Asgard." She hugs me and pours some more tea. "Drink, Mama. You need your strength."
*****************
Amora walks into the Queen's bedchambers the next morning. She heard word from the maids that the Queen had suddenly fallen ill. Amora needed to see this for herself. She approaches the bed and holds her hand. Ice cold. "Mama?" Her voice is shaky. "Mama...not you too..." She hears a quiet throat clear. Her brother is standing in the doorway to the terrace.
"What happened, Eirik?"
"Mother passed. I put a sword in her hand before bed last night to ensure that if she were to go, she'd join Father in Valhalla."
"So she really is gone?"
"Yes. But she is at peace, finally."
