Answer: A demigod/dwarf and an elf

Blitz, or Blitzen, is the son of the goddess Freya and the dwarf Bili. Hearth, or Hearthstone, is an elf. Hearth is deaf, which is why both Blitzen and Magnus are fluent in sign language in order to communicate.

Answer: shrinking

A flyting is a trading of insults, and after it first looks as if Magnus is losing, he wins eventually by pointing out the individual strengths of all his friends (such as Samirah saving the world and fighting monsters while fasting for Ramadan) and making Loki realize he is utterly alone. Loki is imprisoned in a walnut shell.

10. At the end of the third book, Magnus turns the Chase mansion into The Chase Space, which is what?
