Story
continues from THANOS: DEATH NOTES one-shot.
Thor’s
young sister Laussa is in a castle in Little Asgard, a part of Broxton,
Oklahoma. Corvus Glaive comes to get her, telling her he is taking her to see
her mother. They cross various realms until they come to a frozen plain on
Niffleheim, where Laussa loses her stuffed toy….
In
Asgard, Thor pores over maps, trying to locate where Glaive has taken Laussa as
he retraces Thanos’ steps, searching for the Black Infinity Stone; Odin tells
him that his father Bor hid the place very well. Sif arrives and suggests that
to find the spot, they ask someone who was there….
In
Cleveland, Ohio, Runa the Valkyrie is on a wild and exciting date with her new
girlfriend Michelle when their romantic moment is interrupted by Thor’s ravens.
Thor is on the roof with the Disir who want to eat him until Runa arrives to order
them away. Thor asks about the location in Niffleheim and she suggests he avoid
it but…
…soon
they are crossing the icy wastes of Niffleheim, finding Laussa’s lost toy as
they track Corvus Glaive to the site of an ancient battle that ended with a
massive explosion. Runa warns him about the next part: they fall through ice,
with Thor nearly succumbing to the hypnotic lure of the light shing through the
water when Runa draws them through to another place. It is the battlefield with
all of the dead frozen where they fell. Runa speaks of Valkyries who moved
beyond the field and those who came back were changed. They follow footprints
in the snow into a dark cavern where they are attacked by their own shadows
made solid. Thor brings down lightning and the flash drives them away….
Ahead
of them, Laussa looks into a mirror and sees herself as a grown and powerful
lady warrior whereas Corvus Glaive sees himself as a god wearing a gauntlet
with the Black Infinity Stone. They come to a giant door and now it is Laussa’s
turn to lead the way….
Thor
and Runa walk through a cave where warriors are frozen in golden and
transparent stone. Then they encounter Bor, Thor’s grandfather, alive and
well….
