Loki's Wolves, стр. 53
The horrible look of sadness slipped from the boys’ faces, and Laurie felt herself smiling, too. They didn’t need to discuss what would happen next. They knewwhat to do.
The twins walked into the kitchen. “We should probably take off before Baldwin’s parents get home,” Ray suggested.
“We are,” Laurie said, and then she turned to Matt. “Did the gods succeed?”
“No,” Matt said slowly. “The myth says Hel wouldn’t give him up because Loki didn’t mourn.” He clapped Fen on the shoulder. “But you aremourning.”
Fen grinned. “Well, then it looks like we need to go to Hel.”
