Sigurd was sitting in his palace while a small child was playing with Hela. He was just making plans to travel the universe to find an unknown dimension.
Hippolyta walked toward Sigurd, who was lost in his own thoughts.
"What are you thinking?"
Sigurd heard the words, then looked toward Hippolyta.
"Nothing. I was just planning to travel the universe."
Hippolyta looked toward Sigurd. "Why are you planning to travel? You know Diana is just three years old. If you are around, it will be easier."
Sigurd looked at her, then shook his head. "Who told you I am going to travel right away?"
Then he looked toward Diana and Hela.
"I will travel, but not right away."
Hippolyta nodded, then thought of her problem.
"What should I do? I have to go back to my world. Diana is also small."
Sigurd looked at the troubled expression on Hippolyta's face.
"Why don't I bring them to this world? Wouldn't that solve your problem?"
Hippolyta shook her head.
"Not everyone wants to follow a new world. Even if they agree, how can I let them travel from their home world for my own selfish reasons? Although the Amazons stay hidden in our world, we still have connections outside of Themyscira."
Sigurd looked toward Hippolyta, then toward Diana.
"What do you want, then? If they want to stay here, it will be easy for me to bring them here and establish a country in a new land. But if they don't want to come, then that will be a bit difficult. After all, my strength isn't powerful enough to establish a permanent connection between two different worlds."
Hippolyta also knew well that it couldn't be possible, but then she thought about it.
"Why don't I ask them? After all, this is related to everyone in Themyscira."
Sigurd nodded, then spoke.
"I will send you and Diana there. You can introduce Diana to them as well as discuss it."
Hippolyta thought about it and nodded. Then she looked toward Hela, who had been constantly fighting during these years and was now enjoying her time with Diana.
"Hela, didn't you just come back from war? Did you meet your mother?"
Hearing Hippolyta's question, Hela, who was playing with Diana, just looked up and then tried to avoid answering.
Looking at her behavior, even Sigurd felt something was off.
"Hela, what have you done this time that you are avoiding Frigga?"
Hela looked at her uncle, but just as she was thinking about how to explain her situation, another voice came.
"What will she do except bring trouble to me and her father?"
Hearing the voice, Hela looked startled.
"Oh? What did she do to make you so angry?" Sigurd looked toward Frigga as he spoke.
Frigga looked toward Sigurd, then toward Hippolyta.
"You guys have spoiled her since childhood. Look at her behavior: the weapon Mjolnir, which your brother kept in a vault, was taken by her during the war. You should know that it is very difficult to control that weapon, but she didn't listen to anyone."
Sigurd heard the words and didn't know what to say.
"Sister-in-law, what's the trouble in that? Anyway, weapons are made to be used in war."
Sigurd looked toward Hela. "Why do you need that weapon? You already have a very suitable one."
Hela looked toward Sigurd. "Uncle, you don't know—everyone in the army is curious about the weapon that even the All-Father couldn't control perfectly. So I tried to show them and tried to wield it, but it was difficult."
Sigurd looked toward her, then shook his head. Then he thought of something.
"Who were you fighting?"
Hela heard the words and then explained.
"Uncle, for the past few years, frost giants have been constantly attacking our garrison in Jotunheim. Our army has always tried to catch the rebels, but they have left no clues during these years."
Sigurd looked toward Hela, then asked.
"How many times have they attacked this year? What was the scale of their attacks?"
Hela looked toward her uncle, but she didn't know why he was asking so many questions.
"Over these years, they have attacked more than ten times, but their scale is very small—as if they don't have many warriors in their camp. Most of the time, we even chase them deep into the snow to slaughter them."
Hearing Hela's words, Sigurd looked more alert and asked again.
"Why did you chase them deep into Jotunheim? What if they ambushed you?"
Hela heard Sigurd but still explained the whole thing.
"Uncle, at first we also thought there might be an ambush ahead. But as they attacked frequently, a few of our soldiers stopped caring about an ambush and chased them anyway, even killing the enemy. So after a few times, we learned from the captured Frost Giants that they are just a small group and their strength isn't great."
Just as Sigurd was about to ask again, Hela spoke once more.
"We also used our wizards to cast illusion spells to break them down, but every interrogation led us to the same answer from every captured Frost Giant."
Listening to Hela's words, Sigurd's doubts about the whole thing increased, but he didn't ask anything more. Instead, he took out his blade and threw it toward Hela.
"Use this for now. When the time comes, I will get you something better. For now, you can use it in battle."
Hela, who received the blade used by her uncle, was very happy. After all, she knew how powerful these weapons were.
But Frigga and Hippolyta could sense that Sigurd hadn't explained something to her, so they didn't speak.
At the same time, in Jotunheim…
Laufey looked toward his general, then asked.
"How is the plan's execution going?"
The general stood from his seat.
"My lord, I have covered all the traces that could link you to this incident."
Then he looked toward Laufey once more.
"My Lord, do you think this plan will work? After all, Odin is known for his wisdom. If he has already seen through our plan, then it will be difficult."
Laufey looked toward his men in the hall, a hint of pleasure on his face.
"You don't have to worry; I have already planned everything. Jotunheim will just be a small piece of the battle compared to another place, but this one will affect Odin more badly than any other."
