The temporally asynchronous conceit put forth by 𝙁𝙤𝙧 𝙃𝙤𝙣𝙤𝙧 with its Viking faction seems compelling in the same way 𝘋𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘞𝘢𝘳𝘳𝘪𝘰𝘳 the TV show was where people who could never have historically faced off do.

One might accuse Thor's Hammer of being a macguffin in this mystery novel cover art, but if you think about it's theft in Þ𝙧𝙮𝙢𝙨𝙠𝙫𝙞ð𝙖 or its being left behind in 𝙎𝙠á𝙡𝙙𝙨𝙠𝙖𝙥𝙖𝙧𝙢á𝙡 where Thor has to deal with Geirröðr without it, 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗿'𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝘀𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗲𝗺𝗽𝗵𝗮𝘀𝗶𝘇𝗲𝘀 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗹𝘆 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗶𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗶𝘀.
