Loki's Lament and Curse Part 1 By Thomas Laufey

loki: For nine nights only your own will had bound you to the World ´s Tree, you treacherous God, while I wore a chain that I chose not, forever: With cruel fetter my freedom you took!" Odin: "Too cunning and unpredictable you were, too wild to roam free: Greater your strength and hunger in magick and in power Then even my own, Tyrs and Heimdalls combined, greedier than ravens, you sought ever more; that's why we tied you,torso, legs and arms In your own sons entrails for blood runs thicker than water." loki: "Was in nine realms no room for a trickster lord Was there no realm that you could offer, i who existed even before you? Of choice you bereft me to change my ways. My trust you betrayed - Tyr and Odin Wotan most of all, For you swore by your blood to protect and care for me when no other wouldst You who ´d fed me and cared like a father for me The most cursed of primordials i was. "All of you lost your honor that day; stronger was I, but still you tricked me: Cunning magic you cowards employed-- Tyr you let pay for the promise you broke. "Eternity ´s enmity is what I owe you. Raving my greed now, grown with the years: Not quite enough are the nine worlds to feed me, to slake my hunger for revenge they´ll hardly suffice." The nine worlds the aesir and vanir cherish shall fall to end my enmity Odin: "I stand against you to strike you back, though well I know what wyrd is mine: That I will fall with all my Einherjar, whose lives I ´ve taken, that life might survive. "With bitter sacrifice bought I the wisdom for many a day this doom to delay; hope I have kindled, none kept for myself: Two mortals survive in the wood of the Tree.
