Today was Mythology day in school, and the kids got the ask anything they wanted about any form of mythology they wanted. Heidi was pretty sure that the most popular ones would no doubt be the Greek and Norse ones, and was already fully prepared for questions of any sort the young kiddos could ask. These were young, inquisitive and overly curious minds, and it was her job as a teacher to enrich them and supplement their learning. Freyja, a teacher. Not just any teacher as well, an elementary school teacher. Who would have thought. Well, she did love children after all, but she loved adult men as well, albeit in a different way. Ever since she made the transition to Heidi, the Norse goddess has toned down a considerably lot, and was no longer as flirtatious as before. Dressed in a peach-coloured button up shirt, and a white pencil skirt, she made her to class.

With class well under way, Jack, one of her nine year olds, asked her a question. "Ms Olsen! Aren't you from Norway? Do you have any stories to share on Norse Mythology? What happens to the people who die in Norse Mythology?" The barrage of questions came suddenly, but Heidi was well-prepared for it. These kids were young and curious, and more often than not simply said what were on their mins without restrain. She answered the boy with a warm smile. "Yes, Jack, you're right. That's where I was from. I live here, in L.A. just like you do now. What happens to people who die?" Turning around to grab a chair to place herself closer to the class, she took a seat and began telling them tales of the Norse afterlife. 

[color=FFAA00]"There are three main paths to Norse afterlife. All three are linked to a different god or goddess. The three are Odin, Freyja and Hel. Freyja, the goddess of Fertility, Love, War and Death had the honour of having the first pick of the slain, and as a result of that, most often called her Valfreya as she would ride together with the Valkyries into the battlefield of the dead. Those that Freyja picked would enter her heavenly fields known as Fólkvangr, where they could gain entry to her majestic hall full of delicious food and drinks and drink until after Ragnarok. What is Ragnarok you ask? I'll get to that in a moment. The second pick of the dead would go to Odin, who Valkyries would pick the slain of his choice, most noticably valiant and courageous warriors, sending them to Valhalla, where they would continue to train and feast until they were ready to face Ragnarok. The third and last pick would go to Hel. Well that isn't much of a pick really, as it was mostly the leftovers from the other two, and were usually the evil and dishonourable sort as well as those who died of diseases or natural causes. They then entered Helheim, Hel's realm full of icy cold death. It was said that this part was where the Christian "Hell" came from. Those that died of diseases and natural causes were watched over by Hel and were given a chance for rebirth. Those of evil nature were condemned forever to dwell in the icy cold realm of Helheim."[/color]

Getting to her feet, Heidi finished with a statement. [color=FFAA00]"I hope that answers your question, Jack."[/color] Jack, like most of the students in the class right now, looked a little awestruck by life-live storytelling, and he simply stuttered a "Yes, Ms Olsen.." Beaming him another smile, she said, [color=FFAA00]"Good."[/color] just in time for the bell to ring. Class was over, and the children emptied from the room. Heidi was packing up her things and about to leave when she felt a strong familiar sensation. Something she hadn't felt in a long time, since she had made the transition from Freyja to Heidi. A Death. A powerful one. One of this magnitude had to be a powerful god. One more powerful that she was. And there was only one that was really more powerful than her. Odin.

As she looked up, a glowing door had appeared at the back of the classroom, one that probably no one else but her could see at this moment. The kids had all left but now, and the hallway was empty for the moment. Heidi stopped through the door, and entered a familiar place she knew as Asgard. Locating the rest of the gods and goddess, she noticed that there were several of the gods and goddess from other pantheon here as well. She walked up and lay her eyes on the stone dead form of Odin. She'd been close to Odin, and used to even teach him some of her magic as well. His death was a serious matter as only some really powerful could have accomplished this. Killing a god, even one who had lost most of his powers was no joke. Heidi gave looks of extreme displeasure, at those who were taking the situation seriously, no doubt not knowing how grave the predicament they were all in right now, regardless of the pantheons.
