THE STORY:
When Thor was young (and Loki yet younger), Laufey brought his runt of a son along with him to Asgard while he attended to political matters with Odin All-Father. Centuries later, Loki slips out of Jotunheimr using seidr (magic) to attend Thor's coronation, taking care to appear Asgardian, and afterwards seeks Thor out for a private meeting (one of many they already had, and one of many to come).

When Loki brings Thor into Jotunheimr and accidentally exposed their secret, Laufey is not pleased in the slightest when he discovers that his son has been having trysts with Odin's eldest and warns Thor to stay away. Odin is brought in and the two kings argue without end about whose fault it is.

Loki is grounded on Jotunheimr while Thor tries to reason with Odin, who, while not entirely pleased with Thor's political blunder, agrees to a meeting with Laufey to settle on a solution. Meanwhile, Laufey attempts to bring his son to submission, causing Loki to use seidr (magic) to reach out to Thor and tell him to hasten.

As Thor sneaks into Jotunheimr and is trying to break Loki out of his confinement, the guards are alerted and are sent to stop them from leaving. An epic fight ensues, but Thor finally manages to help Loki into Asgard after defeating the guards (and the many other Jotnar who joined in due to bloodlust).

Loki finds it difficult to live among the Asgardians as a Jotun in disguise, always fearing the the All-Father will discover his presence, tries to get Thor to let him leave. Thor disagrees, so Loki tells him that he will wait for him until he changes his mind. He did not expect Thor to leave Asgard - alone.

When Thor finally returns, Loki has lost hope and is about to find his way back to Jotunheimr, when Thor tells him that Laufey has agreed to give Loki his freedom (and blessings, should he wish for them). Peace is therefore restored to the nine realms and Asgard and Jotunheimr are united via their eldest princes.

OR

Thor and Loki meet in secret, Laufey and Odin disapprove, and their sons defy them.
