Odin walked back to King's quarters with heavy trepidation. He didn't know how to tell Frigga that her both sons were in great trouble. It wrenched his heart to inform his wife that her younger may not survive, but he couldn't deprive her of expressing her grief by sending her the message through a servant. He deserves the wrath of Frigga, which will probably come, as much as she deserves to shed her tears as a mother than keeping a strong face as Queen. Fifteen minutes later, tear faced mother and father reached the Healing rooms to check on their son. The healers had carefully removed the melting spear. The parts of it inside the chest had already melted by the time Odin had brought Loki and was the reason why the chest wound had caused severe bleeding with nothing stopping the blood from flowing out.
Loki had regained consciousness after reaching healing halls but would keep blacking out every few minutes, the pain was extreme, his seidr was playing tricks on him, for a moment he thought he was back in the tree, and he felt so confused, was he dreaming? Who are these people around him? Is that blond short haired girl healing his chest wound, Sylvie? He looked around and saw the King and Queen enter. He needs to urgently inform Sylvie. This is her closest chance to meet her adopted parents, they had told her the truth, she doesn't have any qualms with them.
He said urgently in muffled voice, “Sss.. Ssyll… sylviee, Sylvie.. Look… your Mama, Papa, the King and Queen of Asgard”
Frigga and Odin both shared a look and frowned upon hearing that. Who's Sylvie? Why did Loki say ‘your’ and not ‘my’? He recognised them, but something was off.
Frigga asked the healer, “Who are you, what's your name?”
The astonished healer replied, “Ruth Theodottir, healer apprentice, I joined last month.”
Head Healer, Eir, stepped forward and checked Loki's vitals, everything seemed under control, as much as it could be. So she tried to interact with the patient while she signalled other subordinate healers to move out.
“Who are you?”
“I'm Loki.”
“Where are you?”
“Last I remember I was in the Tree?”
“Prince Loki?”
