Thor's Explanation

Erik, Liam, and Mia followed Thor through the grand corridor of the Asgardian palace. They couldn't help but be awed by their surroundings. The hall was a display of grandeur. The walls lined in shimmering gold and silver that reflected the light. The floor beneath their feet was a smooth, polished marble that seemed to glow with light of their own.

Their steps echoed softly against the grand architecture, the sound mingling with the distant hum of Asgardian activity. The tapestries and banners that hung from the walls each detail meticulously. The sheer scale of the palace and its elaborate decorations left them in a state of wonder until their previous fear and anger momentarily forgotten.

"Look at this place," Liam said, his eyes wide as he took in the lavish surroundings. "I mean, I knew that the place of god will be amazing, but this... are they all real gold?"

Mia nodded in agreement. But she don't say anything cause the shock of the portal passing still lingered in her mind and body.

Thor who walking ahead of them with his usual imposing presence listened to their amazement with a faint, knowing smile. He did not offer any explanations, choosing instead to allow them to soak in the wonder of their new surroundings.

After few minutes down the corridor, they came to a massive door that seemed to dominate the end of the hall. It was intricately adorned with glowing runes that pulsed with a rhythmic light.

Thor stopped before the door and raised his hand then placing it gently against the rune-covered surface. The runes flared to life, their light intensifying and spreading outwards in a wave of energy that enveloped the door. With a deep hum the massive door began to slowly open, revealing a chamber beyond.

Erik observed the door's reaction to Thor's touch. He realized that this door was accessible only to those with Thor's permission or similar authority.

When the door opened fully they stepped into the room following Thor, and the sight that greeted them was as amazing as the corridor.

The chamber was huge, its high ceiling supported by grand columns of gleaming crystal. Light streamed in from an unknown source illuminating the room. The air was filled with ancient power that Erik, Liam, and Mia could feel.

Thor led them further into the room, his steps echoing softly as he approached a central dais where a large, ornate table was set. Upon the table lay a series of ancient scrolls and artifacts.

"This is where we will begin," Thor said. "Here, you will learn more about your roles and your tasks. But for now, let us focus on what needs to be done."

Erik, Liam, and Mia took their places around the table, their eyes filled with a mixture of questioning and anxiety.

Thor observing their reactions with a measured expression. His piercing blue eyes meeting theirs with look that is hard for them to understand.

"You have experienced only a fraction of the problem affecting your world. What you have witnessed is all part of a much larger and more dire event known as the Ragnarok," Thor began to explain.

The name hung in the air. Erik, Liam, and Mia exchanged bewildered glances, none of them recognizing the name.

"Ragnarok?" Liam echoed, his brow furrowing in confusion. "What does that mean?"

Thor nodded solemnly as if undestanding their confusion. After all, they don't even know about him so its natural that they don't know abou Ragnarok.

"Ragnarok is the foretold apocalypse. It is a cataclysmic event that marks the end of an era and the beginning of a new one. It is a time when the forces of chaos rise against the gods and the Nine worlds is thrown into turmoil."

Mia's eyes widened. "Wha-what?!"

"Yes," Thor sighed, his tone heavy with the weight of the revelation. "The wolves you've faced and the strange occurrences in your world, they are all manifestations of this cosmic struggle. The forces of chaos and destruction are breaking through the barriers between realms, bringing Ragnarok to our doorstep. That's fucked up, I know."

Erik, still trying to process the enormity of what he had just heard, took a deep breath.

"But why is this happening now? What are we supposed to do about it?" he asked.

"Ragnarok is not a sudden event but its some kind of a final stage of many factors. The balance between realms has been disturbed and the forces that want to bring chaos and destruction have found a way into your world," Thor said.

Thor gaze then settled on Erik, Liam, and Mia with more intensity than before.

"Then, to truly protect your world," Thor said, then pointing his finger at them. "you three need to fight.

Erik still grappling with the concept of Ragnarok, but then when he heard this he felt his stomach drop.

"Fight?!" Erik echoed, his voice a mix of disbelief and concern. "We've barely survived what's been thrown at us so far. How are we supposed to fight something like... Ragnarok?"

"You're asking us to battle a cosmic apocalypse? We're just high school students with some new abilities. This sounds insane. We're not even eighteen!" Liam added, his eyes wide with shock.

Mia struggled to grasp the enormity of what Thor was suggesting. All she could do was curse under her breath. "Fuck my life."

Thor's expression softened slightly, though his gaze remained resolute. "I understand your concerns, kids. This is indeed a daunting task. But don't worry. You have me, my father, and my siblings. We will guide and train you to make you stronger than ever!" Thor said with enthusiasm that only seemed to frustrate them more.

Erik, Liam, and Mia keep silent for a moment because of the absurdity of the moment. But Thor keep speaking.

"You must understand, you are not just any ordinary high school students like you said. You are the reincarnations of legendary heroes. With your power you have the potential within you to face this challenge."

Erik, Liam, and Mia looked at one another, their expressions a mix of disbelief and confusion. The weight of Thor's words hung in the air.
