Characters: The Witch of the Candy House
Open? Yep
Where: Two Faced Forest
When: RH4 [or really, any other day if you wanna backdate]
What: In the Forest is a candy house, and a cranky old witch who wants these dang heroes to get the hell off her lawn!





Deep in the Two Faced Forest, next to a lake of impossible clarity sits a small candy house. Walls made of gingerbread, decorated with hard candy that magically stays unmelted in the sun, it's picturesque and inviting. Care to knock on the door? Or just have a nibble of the gingerbread? Either way, take great care. The witch is not known for her good nature...

And now he, too, smiles slowly; perhaps out of pride, or perhaps just because her smile is deeply contagious. Perhaps both, for there's definitely a hint of smugness in his voice when he says, "There is little that can stand in Mjolnir's way, Sif."

The witch will not be mentioned again right now.

"I am glad to see it."

Sif is normally one of the few people on Asgard who feel bound to poke holes in Thor's ego, lest it inflate his head to unreasonable proportions. But he shall see no such admonishment from her now. It is a relief, honest and truly, that Mjolnir has not failed them.

"Quickly, we must tell--"

Ah. Everyone. Including those that have been combating the problem for months, with no results to show for it. She knows that Loki has been at the forefront of those efforts. Her enthusiasm stalls, visibly.

[thoreal]

"Tell-- who?" Again, he is behind her. "The King? I will go to him at once."

[brosif]

"Save us all," Sif murmurs. No, she would not see the King involved in anything that might actually be productive. She turns.

"You ought to speak with your brother, first. He has been investigating the thorns for some time. It would be good to compare your findings."

The unspoken: that to hear of Thor's success will surely lead Loki to designate his previous efforts as failures. There will be fallout.
