NINE REALMS FULL

However, when thousands of years later (present day) a ship full of escapees lead by Malekith were reawakened after the Aether was uncovered, they traveled to Asgard to retrieve it.Īfter the destruction of the Bifrost, enemies of Asgard such as Marauders, Frost Giants, Trolls, and Badoon have taken advantage and wreaked havoc across the Nine Realms. They were stopped by the armies of Asgard and they were all assumed to be killed off. After the Frost Giants have all been killed, Loki tries to destroy Jotunheim using the Bifrost, but is stopped by Thor, which results in Loki falling into the abyss of space.įive thousand years ago, in the time of the Convergence, the Dark Elves of Svartalfheim tried to plunge the universe back to darkness as it was before creation. Loki has negotiated for a party of Frost Giants, including Laufey, to invade Asgard to slay Odin while he is in the Odinsleep.

After Loki sends the Destroyer after them and a battle ensues, the humans (most notably S.H.I.E.L.D.) are aware of the existence of technologically superior beings. Later, the Warriors Three and Lady Sif disobeys Loki's command and go to retrieve Thor. After Loki learns of his true heritage and becomes king, he visits Thor on Earth. Thor and his friends then travel to Jotunheim and ignore the truce and battle the Frost Giants.Īfter Odin retrieves them, he banishes Thor to Midgard to learn humility and wisdom. The coronation ceremony is interrupted by Frost Giants who are later revealed to have entered through secret passageways between the Realms and undetected by Heimdall. Hundreds of years later (in present day), Thor is taking his place as the new king of Asgard. After an unknown length of time the Jotun were finally driven back to Jotunheim, then the Casket and an infant Frost Giant were taken back to Asgard and a truce is established with the Jotuns. Using a wormhole to travel there they were confronted by the Asgardians who were there to battle them and stop their progress. They begin with Midgard, on the planet Earth which is the focal point of the nine realms and the easiest place to connect a stable wormhole in Midgard. In 965 AD, the Frost Giants of Jotunheim began to advance and conquer the other Realms using the power of the Casket of Ancient Winters.
