A Bittersweet Homecoming

 I received some amazing news today from one of Odin’s crows – the crow told me that not only am I no longer banished from Asgard, but Odin also wanted me to return home! When Odin calls, you don’t drag your feet, so I immediately flew up to Asgard to meet him. When I arrived, Odin welcomed me with a warm smile.


He told me that he was touched by the deep bonds of friendship I’d developed with Tiny and my bro Michael. He was also incredibly impressed by my work as the Defender of Worlds, particularly my work to thwart the cats who, it turns out, were indeed planning to take over the world through mind control. Odin told me that I had clearly changed for the better since being banished and that I am now worthy to rule by his side. I was delighted – but then immediately concerned about how my bro and my Cotton would do without me to defend them, especially with the potential for a resurgence of the cat threat. Odin assured me that I had done such a good job training Brian and his crew that they would be more than capable to keep the cat threat at bay. He also promised me his crows would watch over Michael and Tiny. I’ll miss them both terribly, but I trust they are in good hands. It was a bittersweet homecoming, but I am happy to be home and proud to know that my work has made such a large impact in the world.

Happily Ever After

Dear Readers, I have a lot to catch you all up on. Sigyn and I had a beautiful wedding in the mountains. Fafnir was kind enough to host it at his majestic cave overlooking the waterfall (which was also the only way he could come - it's kind of hard to find a venue that can accommodate a dragon). Freya was our officiant, and almost all of our friends came - Odin, Thor, almost all of the Valkyries, Baldr, Freyr, Sigyn's family - even Brian came up from Midgard to attend. I asked Odin if Hela could come, but he said that her banishment to Midgard had not yet been lifted. I really wish my Bro Michael and my Tiny Cotton could have been there too - I have so many treasured memories with them. Brian said there was no way they would survive the trip across the rainbow bridge though. He told me that they miss me a lot but that he was taking really good care of them. Brian also updated me on all the goings on for the whole crew. His spy network remains very active. They were able to erad...

A Legendary Bachelor Party

Upon hearing the exciting news about Sigyn and my engagement, my good friend Fafnir the dwarf insisted on taking me out for a night of bachelor party fun. As everyone knows, dwarves and dogs both love to dig, so we started out the night with some good ol' fashioned digging. We dug and dug and dug to our hearts content until we suddenly discovered an underground cave full of treasure! There was so much there that Fafnir said he didn't see the harm in taking some. I said I didn't think that was a very good idea - I saw Pirates of the Caribbean when I was living on Midgard and was pretty sure nothing good can come from taking gold of unknown origin. However, Fafnir (who has not seen Pirates of the Caribbean) insisted that everything would be fine and slipped a few gold coins and some precious gemstones into his pocket. We then headed off on our merry way to get a few drinks at the local pub.  We drank the night away as I shared the full story of my time on Midgard with my Cott...

A Fishing Trip

After I returned from my mountain getaway, I realized that I hadn't spent any time with Baldr since coming back to Asgard. I reached out to him, and he told me that he'd been planning a special fishing trip and would love some company. I happily agreed, assuming that we would travel to a typical Midgardian fishing spot, enjoy some snacks, and chat about the good old days. Much to my surprise, Baldr, the god of light and purity himself, had something else in mind.   The morning of our departure, he told me to meet him at the rainbow bridge, which immediately piqued my curiosity. Before I could blink, he whisked us off to Victoria Falls to fish OFF the Rainbow Bridge!  I've traversed the Rainbow Bridge many a time, but Baldr NEVER lets anyone use the bridge for anything other than serious and official Asgardian business. Getting to fish off of and play on the bridge was a whole new experience. I was delighted by this new mischievous side of Baldr! Not to be outdone, of...
