Secrets have always been present in the palaces of great empires, why should Asgard be any different? In the wake of the battle with the Vanaheim rebels, Sigyn finds herself becoming more than just a healer in the courts of the kingdom. The spirits of the realms have never been better and there is peace at last thanks to the God of Thunder, Thor. But even in the wake of all of this joyous activity in the Odin household, an evil force, greater than they have ever encountered, moves against the Nine Realms in the form of Sigyn's beloved; Prince Loki. The behaviors of the recently returned Prince distresses the maiden who fears to lose him as she did Theoric; there seems to be a new lie at every turn.
