Loki sat in his throne, gazing into the green orb levitating in the air before him. In it he watched his chaos start to unfurl. That....machine... the one people called the AI, was even now giving a warning. He enjoyed imagining that its tone would be panicked had it a voice.

"The Initiative is a legion of fools," he laughed to himself. "Stealing away Gods who have no desire to fight for them. They are in no position to fight a war... But if they refuse to acknowledge this perhaps they require proof and Loki shall provide." There was nobody else in the room to hear his words, he was content to talk aloud to himself.

With a wave of his hand another golem disguised as a UE soldier rose from the earth outside his castle and started making its way south through the mountains....
