【Beginning】
Skuld raised her giant scissors and put it under Odin’s cheek.
She remembered when Odin was young, he had asked her to instruct his soldiers. He had high-spiritedly vowed of his willingness to devote his life to the eradication of Demons. Among Mimir’s daughters, Skuld was the only one to see through his guise of pure intentions; she recognized that in reality, this was somehow related to the unfinished missions his close friend had started. Skuld wanted the young Odin to taste a bit of failure so as to let him know not to challenge one’s own fate. However, Odin was like a raging bull which knows nothing but to charge forward.
Skuld not only knew but also understood people’s destiny. Despite this, she decided to remain a bystander, only carrying out her duty at times of importance.
As the seal was cast, Odin received his destined ending. Skuld had seen this scene in her heart a thousand times and wondered if she should end Odin’s pain forever.
【Before Battles】
- Urd: Odin finally has to receive his destiny.
- Skuld: My sister, we cannot hold back.
- Urd: In the past, he always thought himself as a hero.
- Skuld: Do not hesitate. A berserk Odin is even scarier than the Dragon of Poison.
【End】
- : Thank You.
Odin regained consciousness. Skuld’s sisters stepped back while she approached him. She raised her giant scissors and put it under Odin’s cheek. Odin’s face, twisted by the power of Gods, reflected in Skuld’s dark eyes. She tried to avoid his sight and would rather face the completely unconscious and berserk Odin.
- Skuld: Shall I kill you?
Skuld maintained her usual calm voice, so her sisters could not discover the ripples in her heart. Now the seal was complete. If Odin was not willing to bear the eternal pain, he had to ask Skuld to cut off his remaining life.
- : No. I shall live forever in the seal as a warning to others.
- Skuld: You would prefer this?
- : At least I still do not wish to give up.
- Skuld: Odin, you do not have to do this.
- Skuld: Do you know what lies ahead of you?
- : I do. As Mimir and you have iterated.
Skuld slowly withdrew her scissors. The three daughters of Mimir turned at the same time and walked out of Enochian Tower. Skuld knew Odin’s future and thought she heard Odin say:
- : I will be imprisoned in the tower forever, to be condemned by all spirits.
