Synopsis for "Thor & Loki: The Tenth Realm - Part Three of Five"
Angela finally meets and confronts her brother, and the two do battle. As they fight, the Queen of Angels tells Loki-616 (who accepted the offer to talk) another shocking secret about Odin. During the times before recorded history on Earth, the Angels were protectors of the ancient forms of mankind from rogue Asgardians who hunted man for sport. This is a lie, however, and in reality, Odin hired the Angels to kill the rogues as a secret way of keeping his people in line. As the millennia went by, Odin learned that Asgard's enemies at the time were collectively paying the Queen to betray Asgard and weaken it for an invasion. To initiate this, the Queen kidnapped Odin's newborn daughter Aldrif (baby Angela) and faked her murder as compensation. In a furious response, Odin severed the Tenth Realm from Earth-616 as punishment, but the Queen convinced her own people that Odin was a liar who refused to pay his debt, and severed her realm from Yggdrasil. Loki then relates his own similar experience, telling the Queen that despite the good he has done for Asgard in recent times following his revival by Thor as a child, his people still do not trust him. The Queen offers Loki a position amongst her advisors, and a dejected Loki accepts, turning himself into a woman (again) known as Mistress of Strategies. Meanwhile, Angela defeats Thor, with the Queen of Angels subsequently bringing him before her, and the now-female Loki tells Thor that being on the winning sides seems just perfect.
