"My sons. You are here. Come." Odin said.

John suddenly remembered something and chanted a spell. After the spell was completed, a portal opened and out came Frigga. At this point he didn't give a damn about the TVA. The timeline had already gone out of his hands.

Thor and others who saw the portal and the emergence of Frigga were happy. Especially Loki, he hadn't seen his mother for a long time. Atreus ran up to her and hugged Frigga.

"My Queen, I was going to meet you, but I didn't know if I had the courage." Odin said. Queen Frigga looked sad as she knew that the time of Odin was coming to an end.

"Father we are here to take you home. Loki impersonated you, but we will make things right."

"Right.. Yes.. We can't make the past right. We can only look forward. My sons, my time has come. Ragnarok is approaching."

"Ragnarok? Father I already defeated Surtur. We will defeat Black Winter. It's far away and John here had already said that I defeated it once. I will confront this being named Galactus and I will save the universe."

"You fool. You don't even know what kind of being Galactus is. You haven't seen him. He is the devourer of worlds with the Power Cosmic. Do you think stopping Black Winter will be very easy?" Odin reprimanded. Even Loki now knew about the Black Winter and had a solemn face.

"Then Father, you will be with us then. We will defeat Black Winter by ourselves." Thor then said.

"No, my sons.. I have reached the end of my path. I can't continue here any longer." Odin said.

"What do you mean?" Thor asked.

"He means that your father has reached his end, my son. He is going to die." Frigga finally said in simple terms.

This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.

"That is impossible. You are still young." Thor said.

"We aren't immortal Thor. We live, we die. But she will be coming after my death." Odin said.

"Who?" Loki asked.

"My first born. Hela, the goddess of death." Odin said.

"She is the real Ragnarok. My existence is what stopped her from breaking Hel as I imprisoned her. She will be coming after you all after my departure." Odin said.

"Father, I am sure there is various magic or technology on Earth that can prolong your life. Even the witchers have found the corpse of a dragon that could prolong life. I am sure it will be applicable to you." Thor said. Odin shook his head and said,

"No. My path has diverged and I won't be in this conflict any more. It's you all who will confront her. John and Kratos will help you."

"I have a question. Is Hela really your first born?" John suddenly wanted to know. He wanted to know if Odin's other daughter Angela existed in this universe.

"You mean Aldrif? She was killed in that battle." Odin said with a sad tone reminiscing the past.

"We had two sisters which we never knew? Typical of you, Father." Loki mocked.

"Loki...." Thor and Frigga both shouted at him.

"She might not be dead." John said. He instantly used his helmet to find the location of Aldrif, a.k.a. Angela. After a second of searching John did find her. John then smiled and said

"Yup she is alive."

"What? My first born.. She is alive. Thor, Loki, Kratos. Please find her and bring her back. This is my last request before I go. John, please help my sons. Atreus, look after your brothers. Both are fools, only you are the sensible and normal among my children. My Queen, I leave you a kingdom which is on the brink of disaster. I hope you will forgive me..." Odin said.

His words made everyone sad, even John. No matter what he did in the past, Odin did whatever he had to do to put everything in order. But sometimes the past will always come back to haunt you. Hela was one of them.

"It's alright my King. I will take care of them. Be well on the journey to Valhalla." Frigga said with tears in her eyes. She knew this part of life was going to come someday but now when the time came, it was more hurtful than she expected.

Atreus had tears in his eyes, and Kratos too had a sad face. Odin was the first God who didn't look at him in a condescending eyes and treated him as his equals. Odin then turned into golden dust and the dust was blown away by the winds.

John who was sad became serious now as he knew a huge fight would be coming and this fight should never happen in Asgard. It would be game over if the battle was fought in Asgard as Hela would be too powerful there.

John needed to end everything right here and now before she grew too powerful.
