Steven Chen, Period 2, 03/29/23

 

  • Craft a piece of FAN fiction related to any of the reading we’ve done in class that addresses one or more of the following: 

    • Literary elements (i.e. structure, tone, diction, mood, irony, and figurative language) to craft a narrative.

    • Structural features of drama (stage directions, character attributions/tags, dialogue, monologues, and/or soliloquies) to craft a script.

    • Multidimensional characters to develop themes and create socio-political metaphor

“The Children Of Loki”/Fenrir focused,  “How Loki killed his Child” FanFic edition (Fenrir hasn’t been chained up in this edition)

Loki the god of mischief has done it again, with his good looks, he seduced the giantess Angrboda. And with her came the birth of the three monsters Fenrir, Jourmugand, and Hel, who are said to bring chaos into the world. 

“I’ve come for my son who howls at even the greatest of gods Fenrir, bring him at once!” said Loki. Fenrir dashed with everyone one of his steps shaking the earth, “Father is there something you need for me?” Loki smiled mischiefly and said, “Ah yes my son who grew up with the pace of Hermod the Swift, I do indeed need you to go to Asgard for me to spy on Odin for me.”  Fenrir, who is said to have the greatest loyalty to Loki, asked no question and roared in excitement, shapeshifted into a normal great wolf, and dashed to where Odin was. “That little bastard is as simple-minded as I’ve last seen him.” laughed Loki (playing a prank on his son)

Fenrir said to be the most ferocious monster in all of Asgard finally arrived near the palace Odin resided in with his disguise. From a distance, Ullr the god of hunting rejoiced with mead on one of his hands and said, “Today we hunt and drink!.” Hearing this Fenrir readily lay down faking to be already dead. Ullr sees a wolf of great size in the distance and runs to it. “Well well well what do we have here warriors of Asgard? It seems my great presence had rendered this wolf dead.” Ullr and his men hurried back to the royal palace Valaskjalf to offer this great wolf to their leader Odin. 

By the time Ullr and his men arrive they see Loki standing at the palace entrance. “Who do we have here? It’s Ullr the great and his pack” said Loki with a sense of mockery. Ullr, agitated at this comment said “Loki … step aside we have an offering for the great god Odin.” Loki realizes that the great wolf is his son Fenrir in disguised thought of a plan. “Where’s the rush? I've heard that you Ullr are the best at hunting in all of Asgard, well today I would like to challenge your title” said Loki. Ullr, thinking it’s a good chance to humiliate the unfavorable god Loki accepted the challenge and called his men with him. As Ullr, his men, and Loki went to the nearby great forest Fenrir awoke, “As expected of father as cunning as ever.”  Given this chance, Fenrir hurriedly entered the palace just outside of Odin’s throne room where a banquet was being held. Odin said with excitement with cups of mead filling his table “Drink Drink Drink!” Fenrir realizing that Odin and the rest of the gods are intoxicated right now thought that it was the best chance to listen to his words. Odin said drunkenly, “I Odin the one-eyed All-Father have seen into the future where Loki’s bastard son Fenrir will die in the arms of my son the great god Vidar.” Hearing this enraged Fenrir though he kept the anger within himself so that he wouldn’t be caught amongst the gods of Asgard. 

Fenrir hurried to Vidi, the great hall of Asgard where Vidar resides, but couldn’t find him. He started looking around Asgard in a hurry till he stumbled upon the river between Asgard and the land of the giants. Vidar was there fighting off sea creatures for fun without noticing his surroundings. Fenrir, noticing this, sneaked up to Vidar mid-battle and turned into his original form, and swallowed  Vidar whole without even him realizing what had happened. 

“Now who will kill the great Fenrir who fears no one in the whole nine realms,” said Fenrir exhilarated after killing his sworn enemy Vidar. As soon as he has finished his sentence a giant arrow that has been fired at the speed of light drilled through Fenrir’s heart. “Who… who did this… how can I, the son of Loki the great Fenrir, die..” From a few miles away from where Fenrir was Ullr and Loki having their final match as to who can shoot an animal from the greatest distance away. And so did Loki. He shot his last arrow with great strength and pierced his own son’s chest “My son Fenrir nooooooooo!”
