Darkness.
Warm. Quiet. Eternal.
He did not know who he was—nor where. There was no air, no light, no voice to cry with. Only pressure, soft and fluid, surrounding him like a sea.
Where am I...? What is this...?
He didn't know who he was. He didn't even understand what "knowing" meant. But the thoughts came anyway. Questions. Curiosity. Awareness.
Was he dreaming? Alive? Nothing made sense.
Instinctively, he tried to move. A finger. A foot. Anything.
Nothing responded.
His world didn't change.
No arms. No legs. No voice. No sensation of muscles or skin. Like floating in a dream with no edges.
Am I trapped?
The question carried no fear—just curiosity. He didn't panic. He thought. Slowly. Calmly. And in thinking, he reached deeper into himself, hoping to find... something.
And he did.
A light.
A pulse.
No, not a heartbeat. Something stranger—like a second rhythm, but this one wasn't around him.
It was inside him.
A flickering spark in a sea of nothing. Alive. Ancient. Endless.
What are you...?
He reached for it.
And when he did—
Boom.
The dam cracked open.
A wave of divine energy exploded in every direction. It wasn't seen or heard. It was known. The moment he touched it, his mind—still unborn—blazed like lightning in the sky. Understanding, purpose, memory, and knowledge poured in.
Domain Awakened: Sævor – The Keeper of Wisdom
He gasped—not with breath, figuratively.
Knowledge poured in like light through glass. Not memories—understanding. How things worked. Why things worked. What could be. What should never be.
He saw beyond his small world. He saw the way energies flowed in and out of him. The silent structures of his mother's life-force. The gentle but steady heartbeat beside him—his twin.
Beside him was his sister—her essence dark, powerful, ancient. She was strong.
But now... she flickered.
So did their mother. Her divine body, once calm, was being drained. The womb trembled. The god-child, in his awakening, had begun pulling too much energy. Without meaning to, he was hurting them both.
It's me. I'm causing this.
.
.
Far above the royal chambers, Asgard stood eternal.
The golden spires of the Realm Eternal pierced the sky, their edges kissed by starlight and flowing aurorae. Banners of conquest danced in the celestial wind. Magic shimmered through the rainbow bridges, and warships glided on beams of light.
And in the highest peak of the palace, beyond the silver-carved doors and rune-marked halls, stood the All-Father.
Odin Borson, King of Asgard. Conqueror of Realms. Slayer of beasts, binder of kings, father of a golden future.
His broad shoulders bore the weight of history. A cloak of deepest crimson rolled behind him like a tide of blood and glory. His single eye burned with the fire of stars and the weight of memory.
He stopped mid-stride.
The Royal Palace, runes flickered along the archways. Magic hummed in alarm.
He turned toward the Queen's chamber.
"Frigga…"
A pulse struck his mind like a war drum. Not from any realm beyond, but from within the palace.
From her.
A sudden disturbance. An unnatural surge of divine energy within the Queen's womb.
He turned at once, eyes flaring.
"Summon the healers," he ordered. "The queen's essence falters."
Without waiting, Odin extended his hand. From across the palace, golden threads of power shimmered into the air, drawn from the throne's core, and flowed through his arm into the birthing chamber below. Into the Queen's womb—to save her.
He lent her his strength.
A quiet hum filled the air.
But the energy inside the unborn boy… kept growing.
Odin's brow furrowed.
"This… is unnatural. The boy awakens before his time."
"Be still, little one," he whispered. "Thou art not yet meant to rise."
.
.
.
Inside the womb, Sævor understood. That was the terrifying part. He was a fetus, and yet… he understood what was happening. He knew what energy was, how divinity worked, and that he wasn't supposed to awaken, but he did. Due to his conscience being awakened.
I must stop this... I must fix it.
And so he reached deeper. The wisdom within him whispered solutions.
"If I cannot control the energy... I will create something that can."
He reached into his own dominion. Into the code of the cosmos.
But his mind could not handle it all—not yet. He needed something to stabilise him. An extension of himself.
"Split the thought. Shape the will. Form the mind."
If his wisdom was real… then maybe he could use it. Shape it.
"Something to help. Something to control the energy before it destroys everything…"
From the core of his dominion, he shaped a thought. That thought became a spark. That spark became a structure.
"Arise... my guide. My mind made manifest. Become—Ælir."
A soft chime echoed in his soul. A new voice was born inside him.

"System initialisation complete. Welcome, Lord Sævor."
The voice was calm. Soft. Wise.
"Objective: Stabilise dominion awakening. Redirect excess energy. Internal cycle established. Protect host and surrounding life."
And just like that, the madness stopped.
The power flowing through him settled. The wild hunger for energy calmed. His mother's pain eased. His sister's life stabilised. The world returned to balance.
The divine energy stopped spiralling out of control. His mother's body—he didn't know her name, only her warmth—began to recover. The other child's pulse returned to normal.
He had saved them.
.
.
.
In the Queen's chamber, Frigga lay still, her breath returning
to normal. Her hand rested over her stomach, where two lives pulsed steadily. A warm smile touched her lips.
Odin stepped in, his golden cloak trailing behind him. His armour gleamed like the sun, his spear Gungnir held loosely at his side. The conqueror. The king of the Mighty Asgard.
But in this moment, he was only a husband and a father.
He knelt beside her and took her hand.
"He awoke," Odin said softly.
The royal healers around him looked to one another in confusion. "My king?"
Odin opened his one eye. Golden light flickered in his gaze.
"He awakens before birth. His soul stirs like no other. The child draws on divinity while yet unborn."
"He has begun his journey," Frigga whispered. "I felt it."
"Aye," Odin said softly. "A son of Asgard indeed."
"Still thy fire, little one," Odin murmured. "Thy journey will begin in time. But not yet."
His gaze fell on the rune-inscribed cradle already forged for them. Two names now glowed on its golden edge—Hela and Sævor.
Outside the palace, Asgard shimmered under the silver branches of Yggdrasil. The golden towers stood proud, shining under the eternal light. Rainbow Bifröst crackled in the distance like a sleeping beast. Airships soared. Warriors trained. Magic sang in the air.
And deep within the halls of destiny, the story of a god not yet born had already begun to shape the future.
The twin of death...
...was not just a shadow.
He was wisdom incarnate.

A/N: Soooo... clearly I was mistaken, even if it's an AI-driven story, many things I'm not satisfied with, and I need to edit it multiple times until it's ok. It's tiring. I thought it would be easy. Might as well write by myself. Haih... Anyway, leave your comments and ideas, maybe they will inspire me, and we will write this story together.
