Chapter 3.
So I had to go back to the private agoon of the Gods, which would probably be empty and with no one around.
She told the doctor that it was impossible for her not to leave a contribution to history, because sooner or later this had to happen; and her comment was a compliment to the doctor, who told her that the shape-shifted mass was appearing.
I did not know how to swim and the water was too deep for me to reach that door, however, I was forced to take the risk and I threw myself into the intense light that emanated from that lagoon; Dionysus, who had been following me stealthily, jumped behind me, both of us falling in the middle of the war between Norway-Denmark and the United Kingdom, who looked triumphant thanks to the nordic warriors led by their reckless god Odin, who despite being bathed in the blood of his enemies, was captivated by the look of panic emanating from a beautiful, good-looking young woman, who appeared out of nowhere, immediately drawing his attention and leading him to think that she had been sent from the Heavens to test his magnificence and balance…
Odin was considered the wisest god of all, but he still had to go through and overcome some very exhausting initiation rites. For example; he had to sacrifice his left eye to drink from the Mimir Spring and thus be able to access universal wisdom.
Therefore, Odin became the god of past knowledge, thanks to the water he drank from the Mimir Well; of the present knowledge, thanks to his two ravens, and of the knowledge of his throne and of the future, thanks to the gift of seeing the destiny of men, which the Goddess Freyja taught him. In addition, he drank the mead of poetry, becoming the great inspiration of poets.
Odin is shown as the god who on many occasions gives shelter, refuge and encouragement to the god Loki, who was a trickster par excellence, but who after the murder of his son Balder became one of his worst enemies, not caring that before the death of his son, Odin was his companion in adventures, entanglements and deceptions, often directed against other gods, or against giants and dwarves to clearly appropriate their treasures or their properties.
Odin is also a shape-shifter, capable of altering his form to his liking. However, it is said that he likes to travel and see the world disguised as if he were a one-eyed old man, dressed in a long tunic and with a grey beard.
We must also mention the Norse god Gungnir, who wore a wide-brimmed, dark blue, pointed hat and a dark blue coat. With his spear as a staff, Gungnir acted in the world of men as an instigator of conflicts, which he achieved by simply throwing it between two people.
The god Odin also appeared in the most fearsome way, appearing under the name of Wotan, a name that means "fury." Under this name he is the lord of the Berserkers, warriors dominated by the fury of battle. This group of Odin worshippers are those who, in the eastern germanic peoples, on the other side of the Rhine, have given rise to the myth of the werewolf over time.
In his warrior aspect, Odin commands his warriors on the back of his eight-legged horse named Sleipnir. Thus, he participates in the wild hunt (Åsgårdsreien), in which he, several gods and the Einherjar, his warriors fallen in battle, manifest themselves on the night of December 21 with a great noise of hooves and neighing, making a great battle and a brutal hunt of animals, to finally have a great banquet on Yule Day, which is celebrated on December 22 of each year, where he participates accompanied by his wife Frigg and his two wolves, Geri and Freki. And woe to the unwary who tries to come between him and his wife Frigg, because he will never return to the world of the living, but at least he will enjoy the paradisiacal life in Asgard.
Odin, intrigued, forcibly takes that young woman who seemed rude and unfocused, to give her to a valkyrie and order her not to let her escape and to keep her guarded and locked in her chambers until he arrived.
For his part, Zahyir did not know that every time he traveled through time, not only did his IQ grow, but she was also involuntarily absorbing all the powers, gifts and wisdom of those gods she had previously visited.
Then, in a desperate attempt to escape from Odin, to defend himself, she took an axe that was hanging on one of the walls of the room, although she believed she did not have the strength to lift such heavy weapons.
At dusk, the god Odin appeared, imposing terror on the young woman, who, seeing him covered in the blood of his enemies, felt more panic and decided to beg him to set her free; this request caused much laughter to the warrior god, who, however, threatened to take her as a woman if she did not turn back and sponded his questions.
Odin.- ¿Who are you, where do you come from and what is that rock you carry in your hands?
Zahyir.- My name is Zahyir, I come from Heaven and I was sent to put an end to the wars that you orchestrate.
Odin.- ¿Who the hell gives you the right to command me and tell me what to do? Well, I am the great god Odin, lord of lords and the most feared warrior by all, ¿do you really think that I can be tamed by a girl like you?
She answered him:
That remains to be seen, idiot, we will see who tames who, answered a defiant Zahyir…
Astonished at what he considered a great blunder on her part, Odin began to approach her recklessly to intimidate and corner her, but she did not hesitate to try to raise the axe to threaten that impulsive god, who after taking her arm by force said to her: If I do not have you, no one will.
Zahyir.- I have no owner and I am not afraid of you, ¿do you think that you scare me because you are bathed in blood and sweat and you stink of death? Well, I am not afraid of you, you big idiot…
Upon hearing these words, Odin began to remove the animal skins that covered his body and reveal an almost perfect body, but not even with all his glorious appearance could he captivate that beautiful woman who was only thinking and analyzing a way to escape from that room.
Immediately, Odin orders one of the valkyries to prepare a bridal chamber for him to consummate the union with her; and that is how that reckless god Odin momentarily leaves the room with the uncertainty and desire that this woman provoked in him.
For his part, Zahyir notices a window behind a frame full of weapons and runs to look out, discovering that the god Dionysus was waiting for her outside, who had hidden himself after eluding the vigilance of the valkyries and warriors who guarded the place.
Then, she decides to venture out and jumps through that window, falling into the arms of Dionysus, who decides to run with her to the woods to escape from the reckless god Odin; who at that moment returned to the chamber being able to see how she fled from her room with that slender young man to the woods, and without further grace or plea, Odin shouts thunderously making Dionysus and Zahyir stop to listen to a deal that he imposed on her.
This deal consisted of if during the night he caught her in the vastness of the woods, she would be his wife, but if she managed to escape from the woods, at dawn he would accept her terms without any reproach.
