Ætta - Susannah C
Ætta is a lesser-known Aesir god of love and friendship, who seems to have originally been called upon by those whose relationships were not just rocky but positively shipwrecked. These days, however, she appears cold and even dismissive of people so silly as to depend upon tender emotions and loyalty and things like that. Those who approach her with relationship problems should not expect sympathy, though she says she may still help 'if they deserve it.'
Eternity
Ætta has many names across the Thirteen Worlds. On Midgard she is known as the pioneer of X-Trend's designer baby corporation, but amongst the humans of Tyr's Holt she is known as a saviour who brought them from extinction to life. Across other worlds and human colonies, she is known as the one who brought them there and the one who assured their connection to their loved ones in other worlds. In some worlds she is celebrated as Goddess of Love - not of silly romantic love, but of fierce, protective love, and this is no better shown than in Hodmimmir's Holt, where the ancient oaken guardians praise her kindness, keeping the Apple as a sacred food after so much time invested in unlocking their true secrets.
Ætta worked tirelessly for the Midgardians in her colonies across the Worlds, fighting for their rights and trade route until they were eventually united by the great networks that followed. After years and years of work, she was able to set up Orchards in each of the Thirteen Worlds, having unlocked the secret of each type of apple. She had apples to make you younger, faster, tougher, wiser, bigger, smaller, to make you focussed, to preserve you forever, to bring new life or to end it, to save your soul, to hide it, or to change the mind of those you speak to.
Eventually, Ætta's work was done: the human race saved and Idun's work completed, she retired to the world of Disheim to live among the creation of her friend, where she was frequently visited by the numerous humans she saved in Hodmimmir's Holt until eventually time claimed them as their own, but as time flowed on, their descendants came to visit, having been told stories of Ætta's wisdom and help to their parents, and so generation after generation came for advice and help from the Goddess of the Apples.
