The Rise Of A Porter

The blood of the elves was something extraordinary. It had properties, even the gods weren't aware of until one of them started experimenting on them. Mimir, who was known as the great god of knowledge, was the first one to slay the pure elves who at the time were treated as creatures with no sin or to be precise, they didn't know of what sin was. 

One could say making the elves were the gods reattempt to make a docile, honest, and trustable species of followers who would never betray them and their beliefs. Just like they had attempted to do so while reseeding the Earth after the events of Ragnarok.

However, unlike their failure with humans, this time they were able to preserve the innocence of the elves and taught them only the necessary things. Like how to populate themselves and how to advance in science. However, Mimir was blinded by his thirst for knowledge. 

Despite his old appearance and wrinkly body, Mimir was one of the young gods. Thus, he didn't know about a lot of things that the old gods were aware of. On top of this, he was quite arrogant about his godhood and wanted to know exactly why the gods liked the elves so much more than the other races. 

However, rather than asking about it to the All-father or Heimdall, he decided to find the truth by himself and thus set out on a bloody rampage to kidnapping and experimenting on the elves.

However, the more he experimented on the elves, the more his thirst grew. He couldn't find anything in the elves that made them different from the other race. Simply because there was nothing like that in the first place inside the Elves.

Mimir could not accept that the elves were not special in any way. There had to be something that he could discover inside them, or else years worth of effort and planning would be thrown in the drain. However, no matter what he did, he only got failure after failure. 

This drove him to the verge of madness. He became a shell of his former jolly and cheery self. He was no longer seen by any of the gods again and started spending all of his time inside the cave one of his 'loyal' friends, Loki, had provided him with.

A cave that even Heimdall's eyes couldn't penetrate. The only time Mimir left the cave was to hunt more elves to experiment on. Not even for food or drinks or any other godly pleasure he could have enjoyed at that time. 

But as he started to spend all of his time inside the cave, his hunger grew as well. But inside the cave there was nothing to eat, nor was there anything to drink. Years of failure and starvation eventually began taking a toll on the god and he finally became mad.

Mad enough to start feasting upon the captured Elves, while they were alive. It was at that moment he felt the changes in his body. The blood and flesh of the elves had unimaginable powers within themselves. Powers that no god was even aware of. With that discovery, Mimir finally got to know about what made the elves so special other than any other race in the universe. 

However, killing and feasting upon the pure and lovely creatures like elves came at a price. Mimir gained powers, alright, powers that could even rival that of Thor. But it was cursed power. Every time he used it, his lifespan as a god would shorten abnormally. 

Even that wasn't even to stop Mimir. He soon discovered the 'cure' of this problem. The more elven blood and flesh he consumed, the longer he could use his powers for and extend his cursed life as well. Soon what started as an innocent attempt to gain more knowledge, turned into plans of full-blown mutiny to overthrow Odin as the ruler of Asgard.

Mimir tried his best to hide this from the other gods, but even though Heimdall's all-seeing eye couldn't see what Mimir was up to, it was more than capable enough to notice the rapidly dwindling numbers of the elves. In mere days after the discovery, Mimir was caught red-handed inside a cave.

Heimdall, Thor and the warrior three went ahead to capture the fallen god. What they saw that day was still buried inside the depths of their memories. The cave reeked of rotting blood and flesh of the creatures known as their finest creations and in the middle of it all, Mimir was seen, consuming what could only be an elven child.

Mimir was taken by surprise and so were the five godly beings who were there to confront him. Their battle lasted for about a decade. Mimir was stronger than any of them had anticipated. However, they were Asgard's strongest warriors, no mere god running on drugs could defeat them like that. 

It was a long battle, but they managed to overpower Mimir and pull him back to Asgard. But even then, he wasn't willing to admit to his faults. Instead, he started recounting about all he had achieved by sacrificing the elves. 

Odin knew if that knowledge got out of his courtroom, all hell would break loose. Thus he decided to punish Mimir and keep his knowledge for himself and the ones present in the courtroom, that is between Thor, Heimdall, the warrior three and Loki. 

As a last-ditch effort, Mimir tried to prove that Loki was involved in his schemes. However, no one believed the god and hence Loki was not punished for it. This drove Mimir further over the edge and he attacked Odin who swiftly severed his head away from the rest of his body. 

However, Mimir's intelligence was still useful to Odin thus with the help of Hela and after receiving the blessings of the warriors of Valhalla, Mimir was resurrected on the spot, however, only his head was resurrected and the rest of the body was left dead as a punishment for the sins Mimir had committed. 

But Mimir's action made Odin feel necessary to teach the Elves how to defend themselves in case someone tried to do something similar in the future to them. He also made one of them a god who was later known as Carollion to oversee them. 

But as time passed the tale of the elves and the power held within their blood spread and other pantheons got to know about them. However, none of them was ever able to make a move on the elves until now.... that was why Hercules and Heimdall both were shocked as they realised what had happened there.
