[ Sigyn is only sending this message to those who she's labeled in her RECEIVER subject line. The names are JACK FROST, PRINCE THOR, PEPPER POTTS, FA MULAN, KERRA HOLT, and finally CLINT BARTON. All else will be unable to see her message.

And her message is: ]

My greetings of the lightest days. [ The camera is leaning up against something hard, as it gives a good view of Sigyn as she sits inside her new house, with a large amount of hay in her lap. She also has a large roll of cloth that stretches off camera and is black. She seems to be stitching up the side, leaving a large opening at the top. ] For all those concerned for my location, I have vacated my room within the Flop and have made my home inside a lovely house in the mountains, by the river. [ She continues to stitch, pulling more of the cloth into her lap as she makes her way down with her stitches. ] I ask of you to not visit with me 'till Moon's Day morn. My apologies for leaving so abruptly, but I do not feel safe as a sorceress within the city.

I am sorry to hear you feel unhappy within the city, Lady Sigyn!

[He even has a frowny face for you.]

Are you well enough, out there, so far from the rest of the city? It seems that would be quite lonely.

[Thor is finding he is happy in the midst of the bustling, if primitive, city. And living with his brother. Even if there is guilt there. Yup.]

It is not so different than home, Your Highness. A solitary fortress far from the great, looming city. My only choice if I wish to avoid being arrested for being who I am.

[He looks surprised.]

No one is going to arrest you. You have broken no laws. Have you?

Nej, but I have been marked as suspicious by Kaidan, for my sorcery and my emotions.

Oh.

[ ... and he can kind of understand that. She is a bit difficult to predict, and soldiers must like predictability. Thor considers a moment.]

That is not the same as danger, my lady. Those of you who are from the ship have no real authority over the locals, and so I do not imagine there will be any real trouble for you in the city.

Perhaps not speaking with Major Alenko might be more comfortable for you both, however.

It is not so, Your Highness. He expressed distrust in my person, and that he would not trust me around his companions, or anyone else for that matter. For my magics and my emotions. Have I returned to Asgardia? Am I at the mercy of Aesir?

You are not in any danger, Sigyn.

[He forgets the title in his attempt to be soothing despite his confusion.]

There is no persecution here, I swear it. One man who has n power here cannot oppress you. Besides, Major Alenko is a reasonable man. Even if he does not trust you, he will not harm you until you attempt to harm him-- and since you will not do that, there should be no trouble at all.

[Right? C'mon, Sigyn, don't be like this....]

[ She takes a deep breath, closing her eyes as she gathers her patience and remains calm. ] Aye, Your Highness. [ That's all she can say. She'd grown up hating the Aesir, as well as fearing repercussions of the Aesir's own hate for their Vanir counterparts. ]

I do not belong in the city of Verdana [ Verdana is actually the planet, Sigyn. ] I belong in these wild lands. I am happier among the flora and the fauna. This is where a Vanir princess belongs.

[Thor isn't entirely clear on names, either, and besides, it isn't really that important. So he doesn't correct her at this point. Besides, he's tired of arguing with her, and if she's happier... well.]

If that is truly the case, then I wish you comfort and happiness in your new surrounds. I am sure I will see you from time to time, as you visit here and I explore about.
