[ Characters will arrive in Vanaheim not long after sundown. They will first be ushered to their rooms in the palace and given a few moments to freshen up and rest, before being called to the castle courtyard. It is temperate and comfortable outside, and twinkling fairy lights hang in the air. A long banquet table stands in the center of the courtyard, heaped with roasted foods and glazed desserts. Tall carafes of white wine, ever-full, are on each table.

Six of the gods will be dining beyond the banquet table. Freyr and Freya will mostly be engaged in conversation with their parents, the Queen and King of Vanaheim -- Njord and Skadi. Mimir and Honir, on the other hand, can be seen often glancing over the small crowd of travelers from Asgard. Otherwise, the food is good, and the servants are friendly. ]
