In December 2021, the [[Supreme Quaestor]] called Pythe to his office in the [[C.I.I. Headquarters]] to inform him that he was to meet the goddess [[Sigyn]] in [[Finland]] in the [[Prime Universe]] to discuss her granting ownership of something she was auctioning off (the venom of the [[Wyrm of Loki]]) to the [[Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids|Crew]] rather than one of its enemies. Pythe, anticipating that Sigyn might set the onto a mythical quest to prove their worth, took Juliet with him, although he refused, at first, to fully explain the nature of the assignment. After traipsing through the snowy woods for some time, they found a [[Rune Stone]], which Pythe figured out how to use to summon the goddess. She set them the task of slaying “a certain [[Wyrm]]” in the [[World Below]] before disappearing in a flash of light. | In December 2021, the [[Supreme Quaestor]] called Pythe to his office in the [[C.I.I.

To find their way to the rest of the Quest, they elected to lose themselves further until they found themselves in [[the Forest]]. There, they found a small waterfall, and figured out that there must be a cavern hidden behind it. There was, but, much to their dismay, it was not the entrance to the World Below; it was actually the burrow of a carnivorous [[Scandinavian Troll]], [[Tero Trollgarsson]]. Panicking, Juliet activated her stolen [[Dematerialisation Engine]], transporting herself and Pythe to the [[Interdimensional Tavern]] — but also the Troll himself. There, Juliet greeted [[Tpxszum]] as an old friend, before the three of them were invited to have a drink by an old man whom Juliet quickly recognised as [[Odin#In the Prime Universe|Odin]]. Though Juliet briefly seemed to have offended Odin, he clarified that he was in jest, before speaking a [[prophecy]] to them and advising them to keep the Troll with them throughout the rest of the adventure. He then departed, leaving them at the Tavern.

Figuring out that a part of the prophecy was telling them that a hearth would somehow show them the way forward, they discovered that a version of the Norse fire-god [[Logi#At the Interdimensional Tavern|Logi]] in fact resided in the Tavern's hearth. In exchange for some scented firewood, which Tpxszum agreed to provide later, Logi created a portal to the [[World Below]] for them.
