Thrud confronts Levia angrily after discovering she wore his clan's sacred marriage band, which only a mate is allowed to wear. Levia apologizes, claiming ignorance, but Thrud’s rage escalates as others defend Levia for saving Thrud's life at great personal cost. In a tense moment, Thrud accidentally drops the precious band, heightening the conflict. Despite Levia's calm forgiveness, Thrud vows to let go but immediately uses his authority to strip Levia of her envoy title and banish her from the Aesir realm, leaving her fate uncertain and the tension unresolved.
