THOR, Va'li, Baldr, and Heimdallr were sent to bring Loki before ODIN to answer for his crimes. Loki and his kin were pushed back to their Realm Holfsford when the four armies of the Sons of Odin fell on them. Loki and Sigyn were taken alive, with aid from his own daughters, the Valkyries Mávrökkeð, and Laufae. Prince Hírn and Vegr were cut down during the siege of Holfsford, but the sons of ODIN did not leave unmolested. Loki was prepared for such actions and had prepared countermeasures for all the sons of ODIN, even Baldr the Invincible. Using Khaos Magic, he murdered Baldr fulfilling an omen of the true End War.

Loki's punishment was severe, to match the crime. His son Váli was turned into a wolf and forced to murder his own twin brother Narfi, his entrails were fashioned into magical bindings and Loki was bound to a great stone under a mountain in Niðavellir. A serpent from the Misty Hills of Fable was placed above his head where its venom would leak onto his face forever. The lady Sigyn was free to go whenever she wanted, or she could remain with her lord husband and hold a shallow wooden bowl over his eyes to spare him some moments of pain. And so Loki was left while the Great War waged and long after, awaiting the day the last of the Seven Seals are broken and he is released.
