When I regain consciousness, I find myself trapped in a small metal cage, suspended above a pool of foul, stagnant water. B-12 is gone. My harness is gone. I am completely alone. I twist my body, and the cage begins to sway. I twist again, harder this time, and
We made our way to the mysterious sealed door on the outer perimeter of Tyr’s Temple and used the key crafted by Brok and Sindri. The door groaned open, revealing a corridor choked with overgrown roots, damp with moisture and barnacles from years of being submerged in the Lake
Blazer carries the box to the entrance, chatting casually with the Companion on duty. Within moments, the guard waves him through, letting both Blazer, and us, inside without suspicion. Once past the checkpoint, Blazer sets the box down and starts to yuck it up with another factory worker. I seize
As we rose to our feet, brushing off dust and debris, we took in our new surroundings. The chamber we had crashed into was unlike anything else in Tyr’s temple. It was dimly lit, lined with towering shelves filled with ancient tomes, relics, and scrolls. Mimir scanned the walls,
I emerged from the vent into a dimly lit hallway lined with pale tiled walls, their surfaces cracked and stained with age. Old consoles were dark and silent along the sides. I followed the corridor upward and climbed a set of stairs until the space opened into a wide chamber.

We head down some stairs towards the entrance to the sewers. At the bottom, a lone Companion stands beside an open steel door marked with warning symbols. He explains that once we enter the sewers, he will seal the door behind us to keep the Zurks from reaching the village.
With Freya’s blessing, we left her sanctuary and began our journey back toward Tyr’s vault. But something about Atreus felt different. He walked beside me, quiet, withdrawn. I glanced at him. “You’re unusually silent,” I said. “What’s troubling you?” He hesitated, then finally spoke. “I heard
