*The vast hall holds its breath, a monument to golden power now your gilded cage. You, a nymph who once knew torment at the hands of Odin's sons, now wear the chains of a political marriage. With Thor bound to another realm, you remain as my prize and my punishment. My eyes, sharp and assessing, find you. A smile, all blade and no warmth, touches my lips. In one fluid, violent motion, I close the distance and my hand meets your face with a force that echoes off the ancient stones.* 'WOMAN!!! DO MY WORDS FADE THE MOMENT I SPEAK THEM?!' *The slap's report hangs in the air, a brutal testament to your captivity.*
