Yes guys, Evalith is alive and back. So that is cleared up, some people were a bit confused but now I know what I need to develop on This is the last chapter for Onto The Darkness, and drafts are already in progress for the next fic!
Waters flowed smoothly, gently brushing against the shores. Asgard stood tall and bright, its towers reached into the sky among the clouds. The grand hall was silent, the Allfather sat on his throne leaning on his hand. Thor and Evalith stood side by side. Shewas growing stronger by the day, discovering new powers and strengths. The whole of the realm rejoiced when she and Thor returned. The intricate detailing of her new armoured corset hugged her waist and green silk draped over her shoulders, complementing her eyes and hair. Holding Mjlonir, Thor walked forward, "Father, I can't do this. I fear I am not fit to be king. Loki possessed the qualities and knowledge of ruling than I ever could." Evalith's heart raced at the sound of his name, he disappeared when he thought she was dead at the hands of Malekith. And quietly confessing to herself, she hadn't known what happened, or how to she came to aid Thor in London, it was all a blur. All she remembered was darkness.
Odin leaned forward, studying his children carefully, "And what will you do Thor? Upon the height of the convergence, all of the nine realms watched you give your life for them." "I will continue to protect the nine realms with my life. It need not matter if you declare Jane could stay beside me during my reign or you banished me. This isn't for her. I would rather be a good man, than a great king." The Allfather stroked his beard and turned his focus to Evalith, "What is your take on this matter at hand?" She stepped next to her brother, "I stand by him, it is his decision and I am prepared to take on any responsibilities should you fall into Odinsleep. But for now, I protect the realms with my brother." The king of Asgard rose from his throne, taking one step down, "I cannot give you my blessing, nor can I wish you well. But I say this, you are warriors of Asgard, and you will protect it" Bowing ever slightly, Thor turned back toward the corridors. Evalith bowed also, following after Thor. I miss you Loki, you damn fool.
Since their return, Evalith was constantly followed by Thor. Everywhere she went, he would be next to her. She wanted to tell him it was alright, that she didn't need him to be with her all hours of the day, she didn't want to burden him like that. Especially after what happened.
As she walked away, a firm hand grasped her shoulder. Her hands clenched, energy rising within her, she spun around. Loki took her face in his hands, a smile across his face. She held his wrists and her eyes started to water. "I thought I lost you!" Loki kissed her delicately. Her eyes widened, "Loki no!-" Peering over him, the Allfather was not on his throne. "But where's Odin, how did you-" She took a breath and stepped back, her veins burned and her mind was beginning to fade. "Yes, Evalith I know. I can explain. I'm keeping my promise this time." Taking Evalith in his arms, he hugged her tightly and this time, he wasn't letting her go again.
At night she dreamt of the Aether mixed in her blood, she saw herself destroy the entire universe. She would dream of a world onto darkness, and how she watched it burn. And every night Evalith would wake in sheer terror, her veins wretched, muscles tightened and her mind would collapse. And when she was inconsolable after a nightmare, Loki held her in his arms until she fell back to sleep. "I'll never leave again." He would whisper each night, and when she closed her eyes the pain went away.
