[The feed starts with a audio. Someone obviously thinks their device is a phone and is attempting to leave a voicemail.]

Mike? Um, what’s going on here? Is this like some God shit? You told me Goddess ceremonies are different, but I was seriously not expecting this. Not until the drinking started, anyway.

And Mike? If you’re just fucking with me this is seriously NOT the time. Call me back, yeah?

[Axl ends the call, inadvertently turning on the video. There’s a shot of a young man in skinny jeans and a t-shirt, soaked completely to the skin before he shoves the phone in his pocket. His voice is heard muffled through his jeans before it turns off.]

Uh, ‘scuse me? I’m not in Auckland, am I? It's in New Zealand, yeah.

Oh... fuck.





[ooc: You are now plus one Norse god, City! Action for anyone near the fountain. Axl is 6'3" and soaking wet so he will be easy to spot. BRING HIM A TOWEL BEFORE HE CATCHES HIS DEATH and takes everyone with him.]

But... Stacey was her handmaiden.

[helsmaiden]

I know of no "Stacey" in Niflhel.

[friggmagnet]

No, we live in Auckland.

[helsmaiden]

My mistress Hela does not live in Auckland.

[friggmagnet]

Well, Eva did live here. Until she died, anyway.

[helsmaiden]

I do not know who this Eva is.

[friggmagnet]

She was Hel. The last one.

[helsmaiden]

The last... what? Hela resides in Niflheim still

[friggmagnet]

And where is Nif..el..heim?

[helsmaiden]

It is a realm below Midgard. The realm of the dead.

All this talk of Hel yet you do not know where it is? Who are you?

[friggmagnet]

Realm of the dead, eh? cool.

[helsmaiden]

You did not answer my question. Who are you who speaks of Hel?

[friggmagnet]

I could ask you the same question.

[helsmaiden]

I have already told you I am Hela's handmaiden, but if you must know, my name is Leah.

[friggmagnet]

Right. Hi. I'm Axl.

[helsmaiden]

And are you mortal, Axl of New Zealand?

[ Wow, Leah, way to be forward. ]

[friggmagnet]

Um...

[WHAT DO?]

Yes.

[helsmaiden]

You are oddly knowledgeable of gods' affairs, for a mortal.

[friggmagnet]

I read a book once?

[helsmaiden]

Mmhmm.

[friggmagnet]

So, uh, you been in this place long?

[helsmaiden]

A month or so. Long enough for my tastes. Though I suppose the alternative is worse, in my case.

[friggmagnet]

Why's that?

[helsmaiden]

I would be dead.

[friggmagnet]

Oh. Sorry.
