very interesting…so Hel is a power source…I never believed our liddle Hod would do that to her…talk about your crystal power…quite new-age of him.

@j c rouille – Gee, I read it that they needed to load the power sources to the sonic sleep chamber to keep her asleep. Your comment made me look more carefully, and it does seem to be Hel’s chamber that they are loading into a larger machine.

@Wynni – So fast? Do we know how many millenia have passed since we first met Pookah?

Boy, am I waiting for explanations. But patiently…

Actually, I can much more believe that it *IS* our Hod now — when I thought they had toasted Hel, I couldn’t believe Hod had actually done that — but now that we know that it was all just to be able to capture her (and apparently use her as a power source), it’s not so bad (though Hel will *not* be happy about it). All I can say is that Hod better damn well have an awesomely good reason for all he’s doing once Hel wakes up.

awesomeness

.

it’s like Snow White and the dwarves. In a way.

:-E

Heh. Nobody noticed it apparently…

Also, Helheim itself is probably not such a bad place, I think Niflhel or Nastrond is the realm where it’s “bowels for breakfast”.

Sleeping deadly has a little dual personality there I guess. Cranky

A reveal i can understand at last.
Hod is evil in all the little ways. “Emo cam on the dwarfs tear”
although it could be the dragon spits when he talks.
whats the point of being an evil overlord if you cant enjoy it?

Hod’s eyes in this arc are artificial implants — as he says in episode #298 “I’m so glad I upgraded to the high resolution eyes earlier this week” (and who can blame him). Now whether this is truly “our Hod”, I dunno – his actions against both Hel and the Valkyries tend to make me doubtful (however he wasn’t trying to kill Hel – so that’s a mark for “our Hod”; but he *did* try to kill the Valkyries – which isn’t like “our Hod” at all).
