[ hello asgard! as surprising as it might be, when the video chimes in kate is not in her office. no, she actually seems to be outside, and there are distant sounds of the battle raging in the distance. more immediately around her, though, are the yells of travellers and natives alike rushing about, absolute chaos stirring around them. behind kate is what looks like the remains of a section of the wall that used to surround asgard, that used to keep them safe. those who are familiar with that part of the city, might recognize the district she's in as sigyn. ]
