Elena.

I have to think her name twice before it comes into focus. The last time I saw her—did I? At the lake? Before the lake? Everything from that day comes back in splinters.

Odin thinks she is dead. Ra thinks she is moving through the dark in ways I cannot yet see.

I think I don’t know enough. Neither god has an answer for that one. There’s a reason it’s the one thing they agree to disagree on.
