Thor defeated the dark elves on Midgard, then? Good. She was glad of it. There were many things that were not at all right with the universe, but to cast it into eternal darkness would have destroyed all of life and beauty except the unique loveliness of darkness. There was loveliness in the dark, and Frigga was well-aware of it. But life flourished in the light, and the darkness must make room for it. It had always been wrong, the thought that one must be accepted entirely over the other.
In a much less abstract way, she was viciously glad of Malekith's defeat. The coward. The creature.]
