Thor was deep in thought. He was with the Warriors Three and Sif, pacing the dining hall.
"There must be some way to bring him back," he said finally.
"Thor, Loki's gone, you have to accept that!" said Sif.
"I can't. And I won't. We've done so many outrageous things, surely bringing back the dead wouldn't be at all challenging. Especially for us!"
"Thor, this is madness," said Fandral.
Thor chuckled. "Now you're starting to sound like him."
"There is an old legend…. If you are able to retrieve a soul from Helheim in 3 days time, it is possible for that soul to come back to it's former body, and wake up. After 3 days, though, he will be truly dead."
Thor beamed. "Then it is settled! We shall leave right away, there is no time to lose!"
Hogan grabbed his arm. "Thor! Have you any idea how dangerous this is? A quest to Helheim, the underworld itself! It's unheard of! No one with our headings have survived."
Thor looked to all of them. "You are right, my friend. I cannot ask you to accompany me, it would be too much. Please look after Asgard while I'm gone." They all looked down.
"I'm going with you," said Volstagg. "I as well," said Sif.
Fandral came to stand beside Thor, and put a hand onhis shoulder. "We won't let you go alone." Hogun reluctantly joined them.
Thor smiled gratefully. "If you're certain?" They all confirmed. "Then to Helheim!"
