Mayura for once went to the library and brought home a book.

A very thick one at that.

She thanked the heavens when she finally reached the top of the stairs of the Daidouji temple grounds. She gave a smile to her shocked father, who was sweeping the grounds, as she passed by him on her way to the house.

She let her borrowed book fall on the soft cushion of her bed. She placed her things on her table and went to tackle the said book.

The Nordic Mythology at its Fullest, the book boasted its finely engraved title on the leather bound cover. Mayura flipped to the table of contents and promptly looked at the names under the gods and goddess list.

Ah, there it was…

The crimson eyed teen turned it to the indicated page and began scanning the short description of the goddess.

There wasn't much to know about her. The description the book gave was only two short paragraph and no pictures unlike other gods and goddess. Mayura smiled a little, from what she learned the goddess would be very loyal to her husband. But something was bothering her but she wasn't sure what.

Then she turned the book to another page.

Ragnarok.

The end of the world. The battle of the gods.

She read further about it and frowned. No wonder it was the end of the world, no god would survive, not like she believed in gods but…if gods weren't able to survive what chance did humans have?

"It's like even if they were victorious in their battle they would just die in the end for another reason." Mayura voiced.

How depressing.

And with that thought Mayura closed the book and stood up.

Now on to the next mystery.

Why did Moriko mention the name of a Norse goddess?

It was certainly a 'fushigi mystery', something Mayura really wanted to know.

"Sigyn…" Mayura mused as she walked around her room.

Mayura continued to muse about the goddess as she went out of her room to get some snack.

The door shut with a soft 'thud' and everything was quiet inside the room. The ruby-gold hairpin glowing innocently as the crimson light illuminated the picture frame beside it. And the once empty space in the picture was filled.

The Mayura in the photograph now held a cute black dog, beside her was a young boy with brown hair and green eyes and beside the boy was a taller young man with dark cobalt green hair smiling widely and a balloon shaped spirit floating just above the boy. And when the pin's light started to fade the added characters in the picture started to fade as well.

And right when Mayura opened the door with a sandwich in her hand the hairpin stopped glowing and the picture was back to normal.
