Summary: Attackers from other realms threaten the Asgardian palace and your very lives! This is where you fight or flee, the place for all your combat mingle needs.
The Story:

+ Day 3 : Rock Trolls and Ogres +



Rock Trolls and Ogres are strong, tough and surprisingly fast, with great muscular bulk. Their sight is keen, and they hunger for human flesh. Fortunately they are lacking in tactical skill, and few to none will manage to break through Asgard's protective barrier to enter the palace. ( x ) ( x )

+ Day 4 : Frost Giants +



The Forst Giants will scare off yesterday's attackers almost entirely, bringing a greater threat to the palace. They are faster and stronger still, and skilled in cryokinesis. One touch by their hand might freeze a warrior whole, if they don't stop the spread of cold on time. Several of their numbers will manage to break through Asgard's protective barrier to enter the palace. ( x )

+ Day 5 : Dark Elves +



The Dark Elves are the last and greatest threat to Asgard. They rely on stealth and deadly energy weapons, their strength and craftiness yet unparalleled. They are weak to iron, and any warrior would be lucky to discover this weakness on time. They infiltrate the palace from the caves, and nearly all of their numbers will attack from the inside. ( x )

His sword clatters to the floor. Cullen holds his hand, and watches his glove freeze, crumble, shatter. He slips off the remains quickly, and flexes his fingers. Always cold, but no worse so than usual. Quick enough, when he holds on to his shield with both hands as the giant's blow comes crashing down.

The force makes him groan. When the giant swings again he acts fast: One step out of the way, the next to slam his shield into the giant's side. The creature stumbles, only not enough. Cullen bashes forward with his shield again- again. The giant slowly finds his footing. Cullen hopes that he can reach his sword, first.

Swords and shields are a lot closer than Natasha would like to get, all things considered. But there he is, and what Natasha would like clearly isn't being considered much today.

She only hesitates an instant, gauging the distance and her chances of success. As Cullen pushes the creature back, creating a little room, Natasha rushes in from the giant's blind side and catches the sword with the toe of her boot, kicking it high enough to catch only briefly before tossing it Cullen's way—ready or not, this is his chance.

"Heads up!" Only warning. Hopefully he's good for it.
