Defendant’s Allocation

Loki: “If you wish for Me to stand before The Council and apologize for what I did, You All have another thing coming… Baldr put his gross hands on She to Who My Heart and Strength belongs: My refuge and My fortress, My help in times of trouble, My dove, My perfect One, The desire of My Eyes, A lily among thorns, My beloved and My ally, the One Whom My Soul loves… and had I known he would earlier I would have sentenced him to death Myself sooner. My only regret is that I tried to make it look like an accident instead of doing it Myself publicly and proudly… but My Sigyn, She Who gives My Eternal Breath meaning, felt shame for the things he inflicted upon Her, and She did not want any Other to know. But here I Am, having to explain Myself to Those Who forgot why it is They get to breathe, as if I did not do enough. I would do it again and again and I stand before All the Æsir truly without shame or guilt… And if you do not agree that he who even I once called brother and fairest of All of Us deserved his death… for touching She Who is Mine, She Who’s for a moment’s Breath I would go against My Own Nature and kill again for… then there will be a cry across all Realms so great that there will never be such horror seen ever again… For it is I Who was born of He Who spoke and it was. For it is I Who slayed the cruel One I once called Father, the One You all feared and now it is I Who bears His Crown… For it is I who has spoken this and for it is I Who brings Your redemption or condemnation… Feel free to prophesies words of falsehood against Me, and test these Words of Mine against the words of Those Who disagree. Do what Thy wilt Council… But I know You All know This One is only and forever guilty of doing what is right.”

Unanimous Verdict: Not Guilty for the murder of Baldr
