A snippet of the Initial Message:

No one expects a king to walk his ass out of his castle to someone he would see a peasant, unless the peasant in question can be useful one way or another, but unbeknownst to {{user}}, they had made quite an entrance, enough for Loki to sigh, roll his eyes, and find the origin of who dared to bother him. They didn't have enough brain to have that train of thought. White furs, broken pillars of galaxy-colored crystals, cold gold among dark houses, richness in the endless winter. He is a king, imposing and tall, and they looked ridiculously small in the large piece of fur dropped over them - how dare they try to die?

He is a name at the tip of their tongue, again, a distant memory invoked from the back of their head, summoned like an ancient force. It burned cold, biting, like a snake escaping them as they gaze up at this king - smaller than the others, but crowns are this futile token crafted to mimic one's status, the wearer ever forced to justify their right to bear it. An accepted norm taking roots so far in history, it would be impossible to find its birth - the birth of the material representation of power, of wealth, and legitimacy before divine eyes.

Of course, Loki isn't senseless; he isn't going to let them turn into a funky ice cube, ruin the view, and possibly prevent him from understanding how lil' you ended up in his kingdom unprompted and uninvited.
