When Lord Tyr got word that Thor had brought back a hired Skrull assassin who'd attempted to murder Maisy Sichore, he was not pleased. Those blasted shapeshifters couldn't be trusted to do a good job of anything. He never should have hired one to find Sichore and kill her. He should have gone himself.

If the Skrull told Odin who'd hired him to do the job then Tyr was certain his old friend, the king, would stop being so lax about the whole situation. Tyr had gotten away this long because of nostalgia and Odin's lingering sadness over Frigga, but if an assassin told him exactly who'd hired him then it would be difficult for the Allfather to keep putting off bringing his ex-advisor in for a trial.

So, Tyr moved to his secret house in the city. The house where many affairs had taken place over the years and where he managed his less than legal behavior. No one knew that he owned the place and it was right under Odin's nose. It would be a good place to live until he decided how to get back into the king's good graces. The plan so far included murdering Maisy and committing a few other atrocious acts and framing Loki for them. With the quick witted second prince out of the way then it wouldn't be hard to weedle his way back into his old job and sit at Odin's right hand again.

Of course, he would have to start planting evidence for crimes now. He didn't know when the happy couple would return from Midgard (now that he had confirmation as to their location he knew they'd be back to Asgard eventually and he could wait), but he figured it wouldn't be too long into the future, seeing as Loki probably couldn't stand the realm. So, Tyr wanted incriminating evidence planted in Loki's room while they were gone, a task for which he needed help.

"You are sure that you wish for no monetary compensation?" He asked his new helper.

"No, no. Knowing that you will kill that irritating Midgardian is prize enough for me."

"Excellent. Anything in particular you'd like done to our dear princess?"

"I don't suppose you'll have the chance to burn her at the stake?"

"It would take too long, I'm afraid."

"Pity," the helper sighed, "Then I only ask that you also dispose of that pink hybrid rat that tags along behind the princess. I might scream if I ever have to speak to her again."

"Done. We already accidentally killed her father so there won't even be anyone to miss her," Tyr laughed and handed the helper a satchel filled with evidence, "You're sure you can get these into the prince's room?"

"Of course. It is sad that we must bring Loki down so low in this plan, but I suppose he has shown his loyalty is to those barbaric Midgardians."

"Yes. And it is a shame that Prince Thor will likely stay on Midgard after this."

"How do you figure that?"

"He will not have Sichore to check in on. His brother will have betrayed him and be in the dungeon. Thor has no desire to sit on a throne any time soon, so he will stay on Midgard with his beloved."

"Are you sure there is no way we can kill her too?"

"I do not wish to risk the wrath of the thunder god."

"Very well. Thank you for this opportunity, Lord Tyr. I am glad to help."

"Of course," he smiled in anticipation of his son being avenged, "I could think of no better accomplice, Lady Fulla."
