The pigtailed girl was still reeling from the random visions that had flashed before her eyes. The sight of all those cities in flames was a reminder of what she was trying to prevent, and why it was imperative to return home. It had been that need that had placed her in this uncomfortable situation now, and she was going to have to be more careful in future. Apparently her first assessment of this research had been the correct one. It wasn't for her. "......................................." Now, what was a graceful way to respond without admitting what they both knew to be true.
Hel almost said that it had only been a test of the sundered's abilities to see if they were ready to defend themselves if need be but that would have been a blatant lie, and a lame one at that. Also, it reminded her of something Odin had pulled in the past that had irritated her to no end. "It's ..... it was that new sundering spell, they're testing out today." She finally found herself admitting. More and more she was beginning to see that this arcane magic that had been forbidden for so long, still should be. They were meddling with forces they had no business with. ".... I've only injured my dignity." Flipping one of her pigtails over her shoulder.
"Was anyone else hurt?" Though she had stated she was fine, it was possible she would have a bruise or two of her own later.
"All this? I was in one of the research rooms or if you mean in my own world, I was on a quest." Not to save just Helheim but all the realms. "It doesn't matter since I'm still here..." It's just as well, diplomats could be too stuffy for Hel's liking. Sometimes you just needed someone to be straight with you. "I was reliving another time when I attacked others without true provocation." Not sounding proud of herself.
