Jormungandr

WHAT RIDDLE IS THIS? YOU ARE SENT BY MY HALF BROTHER TO SLAY MY TRUE SISTER AND YOU WOULD SEEK MY AID?

The sound of laughter filled the chamber and the ground began to shake.

"So the Jotun speaks true?" Balar aksed, "You are Jormungandr Thorsbane, son of Loki?"

I AM, came the response.

The air began to grow colder and a thin frost started to form on the ground.

YOUR QUEST AMUSES ME AND I WILL GIVE AID, BUT FIRST YOU WILL PROVE YOUR WORTH

"What do you mean?" Tiella asked as a low hissing sound began to fill the chamber.

BEHOLD MY SERVANTS came the voice of Jormungandr and out of the mists five Ice Drakes rose up, thier forked tongues flicking out to taste the air.

"Fight!" Balar roared as the Drakes advanced.

"Beware their breath." Tiella cried, "it freezes to the bone!"
