Summary
Three hundred and thirty years after her father saved her from a fate like her two older brothers suffered by hiding her on Midgard as an infant, S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Hel Lokadóttir finds herself in New Mexico monitoring a suspiciously active Bifröst. The last thing she expected to happen was for her meathead Uncle Thor to show up, throwing her perfect undercover life into chaos – and revealing some disturbing family secrets that may leave her no choice but to go back to Asgard.

Hel pouted at him cutely.
"That hasn't worked on me in thirty years," Fury said, unmoved.
"It works on Býleistr and Helblindi," Hel said. "I just pout, and they immediately offer to teach me something new. I'm their very favorite part-jötunn.""Eventually, you're going to have to go along with getting diplomatic immunity as the leader of a foreign nation," Coulson said. "Keep tossing around phrases like 'prince consort' and 'queen of the unrighteous dead' and we'll speed up the process."
“When I arrived in my hall, there were three newly dead jötnar present, killed trying to take back the Casket of Ancient Winters. They asked me to tell King Laufey what had happened.”
“Stupid question, but how’d she take it?” Clint asked.
“She was pissed.” Hel gave him a half-smile. “But, you know, kind of proud they tried.”Hel would have been grudgingly accepted on Jötunheim simply for the sake of her mother, Angrboða, who had been half-jötunn when she lived and was an honored denizen of Helheim in death. But Hel wasn’t just part-jötunn; she was also the only ruler of one of the three realms of the dead who would let the Jötnar pass through her gates – Odin controlled Valhalla and wouldn’t dream of having a jötunn in those storied halls, and Freyja of the Vanir had a longstanding and potent grudge against the Jötnar that kept her from opening Fólkvangr to their dead – so she wasn’t merely accepted, she was welcomed. And when King Laufey and her consort Fárbauti learned that Hel had her own longstanding and potent grudge against the Æsir for all that they’d done to her family, well. It wasn’t long before they’d agreed to an alliance and a formal peace treaty between their two realms, and Laufey and Fárbauti’s sons Býleistr and Helblindi had all but adopted her as unofficial uncles.
“That’s why Laufey’s pissed,” Hel said. “Dad’s the God of Mischief, not a sociopath. I don’t think he’d set up jötnar to get killed for shits and giggles. Sure, Granddad Ás-hole and the rest of the House of Odin hate the Jötnar, but Dad married Mom, and Mom was half jötunn. This doesn’t seem right to me.”
“Does any part of that side of your family seem right?” Clint joked.
“I look forward to the day when they’re all standing around, thinking Ragnarök’s gonna come down on their heads like an avalanche, and we’ll be on vacation in Tahiti or someplace, kicking back and doing terrible, monstrous things like enjoying free wifi and mixed drinks,” Hel said. “Sorry, can’t end the world today, too busy enjoying it. Rain check?”
“Your dad would be proud,” Clint said.Hel beamed. -
