As King Thranduil led the two parties through the gate the guests received a clear view of the village and the palace. The village had mossy roads with dahlia flowers here and there. The tall trees were home to the elves who peeked out their heads to get a look at the mysterious deities entering their closer it was clear that the palace was half stone and half tree. Stopping at the bottom of the steps leading up to the castle both parties dismounted and announced that there would be a ball to welcome Odin and his family with general Tyr and for Legolas to show them where they would be staying and that he would join them later .

Odin and Frigga's room was a dandelion color with a balcony over looking the mountains, a silver vanity with a mirror , the bedding was ivory white, and scattered across the room were vases of lilacs and white lilies.

General Tyr ' s room was blood red with a bear rug on the floor next to the fireplace, the bedding was midnight black with a night stand beside the bed is a vase filled with black roses and red tulips, and a boar's head hung over the door.

Thor's chamber was a sky blue color with a balcony looking over the village. Thor's bed had snow white covers and twenty pillows of varying shades of blue. On the floor was the skin of a mountain lion near an indoor pond filled with colorful fishes. On both sides of Thor's bed were nightstands filled with daisies and violets.

Legolas finished showing Thor's room and was about to show the last one when King Thrandruil appeared to join them. Just as Legolas was about to open the last door a yawn was heard from inside the litter . Gently setting it down a sleepy voice was heard calling out "mama". Queen Frigga knelt down and pulled away the silk curtain to reveal a three year old boy with soft raven black hair and the biggest emerald green eyes blinking the last of the sleep away. Noticing the new people in front of him the little boy jumped up and bowed deeply nearly sending him toppling over if not for Frigga catching him at the last moment . Quickly righting himself the boy proclaimed proudly "Hello my name is Prince Loki of Asgard . I like animals, I have four hedgehogs and one black Pomeranian puppy I brought them along I couldn't leave them by themselves , I like green, my hobby is to cause mischief, and I love to read." Both parties blinked for a few minutes before King Thrandruil addressed loki with a hint of a smile that it was perfectly fine and showed Loki his room . Opening the door to look inside the room was a hunter green with a chess set off to the side with dozen upon dozen of books. The bed cover was a stormy grey color & on top of the cover was a stuffed rabbit . On both sides of the bed were two large vases of cherry blossoms and blue orchids. The ceiling was stained glass creating a nice natural light during the day and night.

"Now that you are all settled the ball will be underway in about three hours giving you enough time to get ready ", said Legolas who along with his father left to prepare for the event .
