Also, I think there's an "in" missing in the line "Dwelling the shadows". I could be wrong, though. I like how the persona doesn't fear Hel, but fears death - the door to her realm. I'm not sure if the irony was intentional but it reinforced this never-to-be satiated longing. Or I'm just over-analyzing. XD

Hope to see more~ (I've actually been haunting this thread but only mustered enough courage to post lol xD)
I took a lot of influence from the Poetic Edda. I have always been fascinated by the Norse Mythos. Don't be surprised to see more of this in the future. As far as the lack of 'in,' that was indeed a typo. Good catch. Thanks for reading, but boo for lurking. </3

It was was a toss up between a love letter to Hel or a romanticized telling of Loki's influence over mortals, as it is actually meant to be. Considering Loki is the father of an eight legged horse, a few blood thirsty wolves, the Nordic Satan, and a serpent that destroys the world.

I may still actually do the Loki poem if I'm feeling froggy.
