_{Such assurance, however slight, is received positively. Thor finds reason to smile, though the gesture is strained and burdened with the weight of loss. “Nor do I,” he echoes, if out of a need to let the universe know that the god of thunder has no plans to reunite with his loved ones in Valhalla. He could never bear the agony of meeting with them again, until he’d made good on his promise to avenge them.}

_{A sight nod is given to show that he had heard Ky’lar’s remark, after which his attention shifts from the trivialities of conversation to taking action. His eyes light up with a blinding energy, sensitive to each charged atom that floats in the air around them as he holds the axe aloft. He’d observe Heimdall initiate the Bifrost’s teleportation power plenty of times before, but had only called upon it a few times himself.}

_{Within seconds, a torrent of light washes over the duo, carting them off to some faraway place. Thor knew that the bridge needed a fixed destination in order to operation, so he had thought of the furthest star system away from the Earth that he knew of and set course for it. A system that was as insidious and light deprived as the baneful thoughts that currently sought to overtake the benevolent deity’s typically approachable demeanour.}

_{The power of the Bifrost was something Ky hadn’t experienced before. True, he’d been through other means of travel, but nothing like this. If Ky was a bit younger, he would have been asked several questions about it, and how it worked. The only problem was  now – being older – he knew that while it was amazing… somethings were best left unanswered. More so given their current circumstances.}

_{While the trip went as planned, Ky had to admit he hadn’t been to many other worlds, and his knowledge of the universe as a whole was lacking. He’d been to Earth and most notably  Mephisto’s realm. There had been some others, but nothing like this – or maybe he’d just forgotten what  the others were like.} 

_{Still,  to be so far from  Earth… it was breathtaking – more so  for Ky as there was a bit of curiosity there.  He wanted to explore and to know how this world worked. Hell, he’d want to explore the entire place,  but this wasn’t the time nor place for it. No, maybe next time, but not now.} 

_{Not when Thanos’ snap and Thor’s failure was still fresh in the  God’s mind. Ky may have been cruel,  but even he knew his limitations, and  wasn’t going to cause something out here. Not when it was just the two of them; he didn’t have to put up an act  out here. Nor did he believe it was necessary.}

      _{“You think it reached out here as well?” He asked, trying to at least get some sort of dialogue going. It may not have been the best thing to do at the moment, but Ky didn’t know much of what happened. Hell, he didn’t even want to know, and yet some part of him wished everything was just a dream. “—- it’s quiet.”}
