    I think she was the one that greeted us when we came to the Wandering Sea

    Well if it was in the the North Sea, and the Lostbelt was Northern Europe(I.e. Germany) we would have to go through that to get to the island

    Hey man. Could you please give me any info on Ophelia`s mystic eye?

    By reddit user pplovesk, a big summary of the LB. moonreaders correct what’s wrong
    . Sutur ate Fenrir, got his icy flame, and became too powerful. Norse deities united and managed to seal him inside the giant sun that we saw with the cost of nine realms and everyone life except Skadi, who survived thanks to being fused with Scathach and thus escaped from Sutur detection. Also this Sutur also became too ambitious and want to incinerate whole world instead of Scandinavia (This supposed to be one of the reason this LB was pruned out by Human Order). Skadi gathered the survived humans and giants, hoping to recreate the society to no avail. Too much of Skadi magical energy must be used to constantly suppress now-sealed-Surtur and his blue flames and thus development of civilization has been severely limited. In other word Skadi herself actually wants to use her power to help humans develop normally like our society but cannot afford to due to having to keep Sutur in check (her winter is supposed to become a foundation for a new spring that will come).

    When Ophelia was caught in the explosion, her vision linked with Sutur after his failed Ragnarok (before he was sealed of course), enabling them to converse and he then secretly bound himself with her via her mystic eye while also casting a curse onto her. This is why he was able to intercept the summoning of Sigurd and hypnotize her for awhile until Napoleon's sacrifice.

    Surtur, after consuming the Imaginary Tree, regained his full power (i.e. icy flame) but then Napolean sacrificed himself to basically turn his normal NP into super Stella. Ophelia also used that super-command spell thingy to forcefully destroy her own Mystic Eye to cut her tie with Surtur (at the cost of her own life). Since Surtur already used his NP, his head was blown to pieces by Napolean and also lost his mana source from Ophelia he was left in a vulnerable state where he must take quite a time to heal himself up. We then finished him off before he regenerate by destroying his spiritual core since he was also a kind of heroic spirit, but with the cost of Sigurd and Brynhildr life (the core was inside his magma body and both of them was fatally injured by it).
    Story-wise, the fights with Skadi and Imaginary Tree after were supposed to be super easy since Skadi had already spent most of her mana when helping us fighting Sutur and the tree was also heavily damaged by the time we fight it.

    -Ophelia was in love with Wodime, she realized that on her deathbed when conversing with Mashu. She also wished to say thanks to Napoleon for his words and his final rainbow (NP) that he showed her & tell him that she actually rejected his proposal(lol) if they were to meet again.

    Surtur's final flashback : Surtur actually felt gratitude towards Ophelia when she found him. He felt bad for his own failure to properly initiate his planned Ragnarok since his own being was solely born for the purpose of putting an end to Gods yet he failed his it so he felt down a lot. Then Ophelia found him at his final moment and he found that she sympathizing with him soothed his sadness. He wants to do her something to return the favor but since he is a being of destruction he doesn't know what to do other than burning everything to ashes.

    - Ironically Skadi said that with Surtur's death this LB now attained a new hope since she doesn't have to spend a lot of mana to suppress Surtur anymore the society might be able to actually develop. That's why she steeled her resolve and challenged us, while fully aware that it would likely ended in her loss since she, the valkyrie and the tree were already worn out at that time.

    So no elaboration on how Skadi and Scathach fused after all? Waiting for part 2 banner I guess.

    Sounds like a fine enough story.

    Actually looking at it, there’s more similarities between Queen Skadi and Scathach then I thought. Hearing her as a queen the first thing that came to mind was how Scathach ruled as described in the mats, at least a bit.

    Too cute. I will do everything I can to reunite them.

    So like, 20 quartz and a ticket tops.

    I think it was the land, but in response to Ophelia somehow. Or was he just summoned by the land and decided to help Ophelia? I dunno.

    Four also bullied the greatest mage of arthurian myth and a badass bitch summerian goddess.

    A mere emperor is child`s play

    So Surtr has Monstrous Strength B+++, Limb of Destruction A++, Giant Husk A, Scorching Body (Attacks apply burn status, immune to burn, bonus dmg to Divine). Also immune to mental status.

    His NP is Loptr Laegjarn (Loki Laevateinn) (The sword of flame shining brighter than the sun).

    Also magic energy 4 millions. I have Rhon beam flashbacks.

    I mean, we did have to pull a Tiamat lite on him (nerfing his saint graph down to a masterless servant). We're lucky he's not Beast level and has death concept.

    Wow, they really build him up like a Servant. I'm really interested in what his skills do, apart from the Monstrous Strength (though I wouldn't mind knowing where the pluses come from).

    I frankly give up when I see this. It's already hard enough to try to read English words from the Katakana, no way in hell I touch non-English words.

    Laevateinn? What does that have to do with Surtur?

    The JP sources for Loki rendered Loptr as ロプトル, and Laegjarn is, well, Laevateinn. It is common in Japan fiction to attribute Surtr's sword with it despite Surtr's sword is basically unnamed in legend, thanks SMT.
