Before
Before, all Yamino knew was darkness. The dark and the cold and sorrow. Loneliness was his only companion. He struggled against his fate, but with no help it was impossible to be free of Odin's hold. He sometimes wondered how his siblings were; how his father was. But they were fleeting thoughts. It was best not to dwell on others when he would most likely never see them again.
But one day, he was freed. Fiery magic surrounded him; dragged him up and dusted him off. His rescuer was there, grinning in such a self-assured manner that it made him feel anything was currently possible. Yamino hissed a greeting to his beloved father and realised that the warm feeling he had was not just from the magic that still surrounded him.
"You'll go on a journey with me," the voice commanded. Yamino nodded. He would pay back his father, Loki. He would be there for Loki as Loki had been there for him. And he would never make his father regret his decision to save him.
