Capture of Hela

The Capture of Hela was a small conflict where Hela was captured while trying to obtain her crown.
==Background==
Odin, king of Asgard, sought to unite the Nine Realms under his throne, and he went on a campaign to subjugate the Realms. One by one, branches of Yggdrasil fell under their control, and soon, all the Nine Realms had been conquered by Asgard. While Odin wished to end his conquest, his daughter and executioner Hela wanted to go beyond the Nine Realms and enslave everyone in the cosmos. Disapproving of her ambitions, Odin banished Hela to Earth and sent her crown after her.
==Capture==
Hela found herself in China, where she located her crown and went to retrieve it. However, she was confronted by Chinese warriors. Hela ordered them to fetch her crown, but they did not oblige and she was met by their leader, Xu Wenwu. Hela mocked Wenwu's rings, causing the latter to tell her that most people did well to fear him. Hela said it was the same for her, but stated that she wasn't most people.
Hela was then attacked by Wenwu's soldiers, leading her to feign desperation and implore them to stop, but then quickly incapacitate them. She defeated several more soldiers before Wenwu used his rings to restrain her. Hela claimed that if she'd had her crown, Wenwu would kneel before her, so Wenwu gave her the chance to get it; however, Hela could not lift it. She sank to her knees in despair and was captured and brought to the Ten Rings' Headquarters.
==Aftermath==
At the Ten Rings Headquarters, Hela was given a red dress and was invited to dinner by Xu Wenwu. The two conversed, talking about how Odin had gotten rid of Hela once her ambition had outgrown his and how he feared the fight inside her. Wenwu explained that he was not like Odin and offered that she join him and rule at his side. They leaned in for a kiss, but Hela took advantage of Wenwu and repeatedly slammed his head on the table before escaping the base on a horse with Morris.
Morris led Hela to Ta Lo, where she was attacked by Jiayi using Ta Loan magic but was soon brought before her and the rest of the village, including Shunyuan. Jiayi explained it was Ta Lo's job to protect Earth from otherwordly threats, including Hela. Hela assured her that she did not pose a threat and asked if Jiayi could train her in the Ta Loan fighting style. During her training, Hela saw Odin arrive in the countryside and donned Dragon Scale Armor to go and fight him.
As Odin launched his assault on the Ten Rings Headquarters, Hela arrived and helped the Ten Rings fight the Einherjar. She reunited with Wenwu, who commented on her attire, before the two were confronted by Odin. The king explained that he'd come to claim the Ten Rings and asked Hela to rejoin him, but she refused, spitefully telling him that he had tossed her aside and ordering him to leave Earth and never return.
Odin engaged Hela and Wenwu in combat, and Hela explained to Wenwu that they needed to separate him from Gungnir. Odin shot a blast of Odinforce at Hela, who blocked it with the skills gained from her training in Ta Lo, surprising Odin. As he was about to defeat her, Hela regained her powers and crown, enabling her to defeat her father. Odin gave up his throne to his daughter, who used her new status to ally with the Ten Rings and set out to unmake the Asgardian empire.
