[The video opens on Leah as she appeared before leaving the city. As she always appears: long black hair pinned back with two bones, green dress tight around her neck.]

I know this place well enough to know that I should not be here. [Forgetting for the moment that she shouldn't technically be anywhere.]

 I advise whoever summoned me forth to return me with all haste, before I find the person in question and make them do it... what's the phrase? The hard way.

[She looks away from the camera, dissmissively.] That is all.

Leah?

3/3

[doeswhathewants]

For once, I can say in all earnestness, this is not my fault!

[helsmaiden]

For once, I can say that I believe you. There are greater powers at work here.

Where are you, speaking through this device is silly.

[doeswhathewants]

Leah, Leah, you should contact your mistress, for Hel must have frozen over!

[helsmaiden]

Hah. Hah.

Where are you, Loki. I grow tired of this device.

[doeswhathewants]

Where are you? I am more likely to find you rather than your attempting to find me.

Leah?

[Aaah, Leah! Rapunzel grins.]

Leah! Oh, Serrure's gonna be so happy you're back! Welcome back!

[helsmaiden]

[Sorry, Rapunzel, she doesn't remember you-- yet.]

Have I been here before?

[tangledintower]

[That's okay! Rapunzel's just glad to see her.]

Yeah, you were, a while ago. I'm Rapunzel, we were friends when you were here before! You and Serrure lived with me! Well, I mean, he's living with me again, but you get the idea.

Serrure. You mean Loki. [That was the name he had used, when he hadn't known who he was, wasn't it?]

I shall have to investigate my loss of memory. I do not like... not rememebering.

Video;

[tangledintower]

Yeah, I guess he is Loki...but I met him as Serrure, so I guess he'll always be Serrure to me.

It happens sometimes, to people who leave and come back...I know it's not the same, but I could try to tell you about stuff from when you were here before...

[helsmaiden]

That would be welcomed. [As close as she's going to get to "thank you."]

[logistical]

It is my understanding that the Deities here are responsible for your current predicament, and that they accept appeals.

[helsmaiden]

[Writing? Alright, she can do that.]

What manner of Deities would dare interfere in the business of Hel? I will be sure to appeal to them straight away.

text;

[logistical]

The same that interfere with all the other worlds present here.

What is Hel, may I ask?

text;

[helsmaiden]

Hel is the realm of the dead, where Asgardians go when they die. My mistress oversees it.

text;

[logistical]

You were born there, or entered it?

text;

[helsmaiden]

I was not born, I was created to serve my mistress. But yes, I was created in Hel.

If you get them to do it, may I ask a favor of you to get them to do it for all of us?

[helsmaiden]

I shall make an appeal, and try my best. I do not like being... tampered with.

» video

[phonetical]

Tampered's a good way to put it. It's not quite kidnapping since we have some sort of freedom, but yet we can't leave.

» video

[helsmaiden]

I have discovered that I have been here before, yet I have no recollection of such a thing happening.

» video

[phonetical]

Same thing happened to me. I was here for eight months, but that's eight months I can't remember.

[helsmaiden]

When I make my appeal to the self-proclaimed "deities," I shall be inquiring after those memories.
