    A physical copy of this investigation on compact disc. Also contains dossiers on the main suspects in the case, and a map of the Bifrost's destinations in the Yggdrasil system.

    All CDs are shipped by two handsome and well dressed band members. There’s no warehouse or company to handle it for us.

    That means we can’t promise a specific shipping time; we’ll do our best to send off a set of orders each week, but if we’re not around you might be waiting a bit longer. Feel free to contact us through bandcamp if it’s been a few weeks, though, and we’ll be happy to help.

    Additionally, we can’t support orders of more than 4 CDs for shipping reasons. If you make an order for more, we will be in touch to refund & cancel your order.

    If you do want to make an order for additional CDs, please go through the checkout for the first set, and then start a new order.

lyrics

Right around the corner
A new world being born
As Loki once swore to me
In the face of Asgard’s scorn

We’ve nothing but our shackles
And the boot across our throat
Our freedom and our vengeance
Born in blood and smoke

Sharpen your knives
We strike tonight

Fallen and imprisoned
Fenrir never bowed
The Bifrost and his mission
Our destiny comes now

Fenrir calls
And Asgard will fall
When we control the track
We’ll take our planet back

Passing by the passenger compartments, Sigyn spots the broken lock. She touches it, suspicion on her face as the door swings inwards. Then she sees Loki, and all the hardness, misery and determination falls away in an instant.

Loki, you’re here, can you be real?
I barely see you through my tears
I saw you die, for doing what is right
You’ve come back to me and I don’t care why

Why back away? This time I will stay
Come stand at my side as we make them pay
I look in your eyes, there’s nothing behind
What did they do did they take your mind

Remember your wife
I can’t recall
So they did take you life
Not me at all
All the suffering, strife and sin
She’s still enthralled
I have endured and still they win

Rescue in vain, choke down my pain
I promise that I will not lose you again
Hollowed and bowed, who are you now?
Will you still stand by me when we bring them down?
