"Why are you talking about this?"

[paladin313]

He had been trying to cushion what she was about to hear from Loki, knowing now that she had a temper.  He finally could skirt about it no more and said, "Because he wants to confess something, but you have to promise to look at it the right way and not get mad, or else you can't come into my house.  He feels guilty about something from when you were children and wants to make it right.  Keep those words in mind: wants to make it right.  He loves you, and all of us, no matter how pesky he can be, and does not want to hurt anyone."

[Trace Carter]

"Fine," said Urd.

[paladin313]

He led her to the guesthouse, let her go in, and then waited outside, figuring that this needed to be between them.

[Trace Carter]

"What do you want, Loki?"

[paladin313]

"You know I love you, right?"

[Trace Carter]

"Of course," said urd.

[paladin313]

He swallowed hard and told her, "Then, I have to tell you, when we were kids, I told you something that wasn't true, because I was scared I'd lose my big sister."

[Trace Carter]

"Which was?"

[paladin313]

"You couldn't acknowledge Hild as your mother.  You made your choice, and it was essentially etched in stone, but I, as a naive child, was scared it wouldn't work, and I told you that because I didn't want to lose you.  I lied.  You can acknowledge Hild as your mother."

[Trace Carter]

"What are you saying?" asked Urd slowly.

[paladin313]

"You can call Hild "mother" with no fear, I'm sorry, I hurt you, I want to make it right."

[Trace Carter]

"This is a lot to take in," said Urd.

[paladin313]

"you have every right to be mad," she said, "I kept you from other family."

[Trace Carter]

"In fairness, Hild wasn't much of a mother."
