Then what do they make me?

[Loki has wondered that, more than once.] I was born a monster. Perhaps this was the only path I would ever have. Besides. So Odin has decreed it, so shall it be. Isn't that how it always goes? If he names me a monstrous creature that has taken the place of his favorite trophy, then that is what I am.

[His tone turns from musing to resolute.] But not even he can make me Loki Laufeyson. I would rather be nothing at all.
