"Father." Thor firmly states when he finally joins his father who is watching Sif train future warriors. "Thor you have returned." The king sees the expression on his heir's face telling the eye patch clad ruler he is not going to like their conversation. "How was your time on Vanaheim?" Odin ask believing his question has been asked in vain. "It is safe. I left the Warriors Three with a hand full of our warriors to collect any strays." The prince takes a moment to see Sif's progress with the Asgard's future champions. "And what of Loki's wrongful trial?" Thor ask with all the authority to be expected of a future king. "There are bigger matters for you to concern yourself with." Odin says with vexation while also being surprised Thor answered his question and quickly at that. "Yes, but for now I am concerned with the fact that you hurt three people I love most in the Nine Realms." Thor says allowing his rage to grow.
"Hurt? And how much more hurt would Frigga and Astrid be experiencing if I had given Loki the axe?" The All-Father allows an angry sigh to escape him. "I will speak of no more. You need to concern yourself with joining in celebrating with your friends and warriors while you are able." The aging king then looks at Sif. "You also need to concern yourself with pursuing the beautiful Asgardian women before you. The time has long past for you to forget your Midgardian fling. It is quite unbecoming of you and your younger brother has already wed..." He shakes his head at the thought. And with as much as I would enjoy ending that union to make Astrid your bride..." He takes a moment to enjoy the memory of the arrangement he had made with Ivar. "I do not have a death wish." Odin says with more vexation before leaving his heir where he stands.
