Fictional history
Some time later, Morgan le Fay used the power of the Norn Stones and the Twilight Sword to restructure reality.[2]
During the
Donyell Taylor and Tigra attack the Hood, he uses the Norn Stones to empower some of the cadets on his side.[5]
During the Siege of Asgard, Tyr is seriously wounded by the Hood using the Norn stones.[6] As the Void tore apart the New Avengers, Young Avengers and Secret Warriors, Loki began to repent, realizing that what had happened to Asgard was not what he wanted. He begged his father Odin to return to him the Norn Stones, which were taken away from the Hood and given to Loki. This deprived the Hood of all power, and Loki used this power, and the power the Hood had given to his gang, to revive the mortal and immortal heroes struck down by the Void and empower them to defeat the Sentry (fully possessed by the Void).[7]
