Alright here is my first crack at my Thor character, I am sorry if I misuse any info. I stink at remember Nordic myths and such I hope everyone enjoys it. I am not making any money from this, the only thing I own is my Character Leena.
Norway
I limped along my leg bleeding and the wound in my side aching.
"Gods…why me?" I asked silently, I had been traveling with a small group of merchants I was hired help, they had been surprised that I had skill with a sword but in the end they had paid me very little, but for the trip they gave me a meal and a place to sleep so long as I protected their shipments in between towns, and I told them the pass was dangerous criminals loved ambushing caravans but they insisted, I sighed leaning back against the rock wall. I looked down at my hand wincing blood leaked from between my fingers I had tried to help them I truly had but…. there was too many. I winced trying to block out the cries of pain that still swam around in my head. The group had about 20 men and I couldn't fight them all, so here I was now alone, cold, and dying.
"Hey look!" I held in a gasp and turned, there were a few of the bandits that had attacked the caravan. I winced holding my side tighter I moved.
"Get her!" I yelped as I pushed along thunder boomed in the distance, I needed to find a cave or something to hide…
"Come here pretty little trinket!" I cried out as one grabbed my leg I pulled my sword out slashing the man's face he gave a cry and fell from the trail I pushed farther and the rain began to fall, making the path slippery and unpredictable I pushed along sword clasped within my hand. Keep going I pushed in my mind, but my body was crying for me to stop, then by the luck of the Gods my hand found no rock to support me, I fell in the small opening, it was deep going down into the mountain I crawled forward holding in cries of pain.
"Odin above please make the pain stop…" I whispered as I crawled I noticed something water…running water. Even though strength was leaving me rapidly I needed water, the bandits must have missed the opening so now I was alone…never thought I would die like this but it was inevitable people died daily, war famine, bandits…I should consider myself blessed I had lived to my 20th cycle…I sighed pulling myself along the floor, I cried out as pain shot through me…
"Come on Leena…go." I held back tears as the wound stretched and the ones across my legs bled out. As I pulled along the running water got closer I finally saw it, the small pool was fed by an underground waterfall.
"Finally…" I pulled to the edge and placed my hand slowly in, bringing it up to my parched mouth I drank…After a few minutes of just drinking I fell back, my side still bled and as I looked I saw small stones ebbed within the flesh, and my leg was swollen.
"Now I guess its time to die…" I spoke softly my light green eyes closed tears spilling out from the corners.
"Please….let it be quick…." I gave another sob lifting up my arm to cover my eyes.
"I just wish… I wish I didn't half to die now—" Something splashed in the pool, I gasped fearful as I noticed someone rising from the depths. She was beautiful long golden hair shimmering in the dim light of the cave. Her eyes were a deep blue the shinned with a soft light, her lips quirked up in a soft smile, she wore a gown that shinned like gold as she approached I felt myself relaxing. Maybe she would be the one to take me away?
"Leena…" Her voice was soft yet with a commanding tone.
"You have asked for another chance at life…I am willing to give you this." She paused running her fingers through my short black hair she touched my wounds pain clear in her face.
"I will give you a gift and once you have lived out your life here you will live with my…in Asguard, and you shall be my lady in waiting." I nodded almost eager to except her terms.
"Alright." Her voice was soft as she leaned down her hand ghosted over my wounds suddenly the pain was gone, the cuts healed, I lay there in shock, she disappeared and only darkness was left as my companion.
When I awoke light streamed into the cave, I stood my wounds were gone no scar to mar my flesh I was healed…
The gift I had been granted was that of mystical properties I could confuse enemies with my song, they called me a demon, a surge upon the land I had no children every man I ever knew only wished for my head…I could not say I blamed them but I knew I was meant for better things, my elder sister hid me when needed, and I hoped I would never cause her pain but I knew…..I knew when she watched me leave that she feared me, that I caused her pain and I hated myself for it…but I began to stop caring this world was no longer a part of me and I it…and after so many years of wandering I went back to the cave within the rocks…and there I kneeled before the pool again.
"Great goddess I beseech you…take me away to Asguard as you promised…I no longer am one with this world I long to be away and I hope you see it fit to take me within your arms and bring my to be your servant faithful and caring…." I held my breath, and there she was.
"I will bring you to Asguard young one…and there you shall live out your days till you see fit to place another in your sted,"
And on that day I became Leena Lady in waiting to the Goddess Frigga wife of Odin Queen of Asguard.
All right there it is first chapter to my Thor fanfic now yes I hope it is well received.
