Added DiffLines:

* MakeItLookLikeAnAccident: After the "New Empire" goons have a MuggingTheMonster moment with Camila, she makes it look like it was just an accident. She may or may not have thrown a car into a tree.


Added DiffLines:

* RelatedInTheAdaptation:
** Luz is the biological child of Eda, Camila, ''and'' Raine here.
** Hooty is apparently the child of Jörmungandr in this AU, and given that Eda is Hel, and the World Serpent her sibling, that makes him Eda's nephew and Luz's cousin.


Added DiffLines:

* SuddenlyBilingual: Luz finds that she can understand Norse runic script now, much to Eda's surprise.

Added DiffLines:

* LemonyNarrator: The story is narrated by the Norns, and it gets very snarky at some points, like the start of Chapter 11.


Added DiffLines:

* YouCantFightFate: Eda got some forewarning of Luz's death, enough to warn Camila at least, but not exactly how it would happen, nor could she actually ''stop'' it, which makes sense given the Myth/NorseMythology aspect of the story.

** In Myth/NorseMythology, Baldr was treated like just another soul lost in Hel, the titular goddess only keeping him for the principle of it. Here, they're husband and wife.

Added DiffLines:

* HellOfATime: While the worst of the worst ''do'' get heinous IronicHell-styled punishments in Hel (especially after Eda worked out a mutually beneficially arrangement with Satan), for the average person it's not really a bad place to spend their eternity.


Added DiffLines:

* VehicularSabotage: The New Empire had Jacob cut Luz's breaks before they go after her, allowing them to run her off the road without her being able to stop.

** In ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'', the only relationship we ever see Camilla and Eda have is strictly platonic. Here, they're lovers in a {{Polyamory}} situation with Raine.
* AdaptationalSpeciesChange:
** In canon, Eda and Raine were regular (albeit exceptionally skilled) witches from the Boiling Isles. Here, they're gods.

* EvenEvilHasStandards: Even {{Satan}} thought that not worshipping the right God wasn't a good enough reason to be tortured for eternity, hence one of the reasons why he outsources to Eda.



* IronicHell: Eda is quite fond of giving these out, having made an agreement with Satan to take some souls that would otherwise go to Hell because he's got an understaffing problem.

* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: The New Empire are a White Supremacist gang that kills Luz in a car-crash and tries going after Camilla because they're Latinex.
* {{Polyamory}}: While Hel/Eda and Baldr/Raine are the ones who are on-paper married, Camilla are a part of that relationship. Their relationship have resulted in Luz's conception [[ExtraParentConception somehow]] and Luz can hear them fooling around RightThroughTheWall whenever they visit.

[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/46207120/chapters/116328547 Light of Hel]] is an ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'' AU in which Luz dies and goes to Hel (no, that's not a typo). You see, in this universe Eda is an alias of the goddess Hel, Raine is their partner Baldr, and Luz is the daughter of Camila with ''both'' of them, making her a demigod. Things are going to get interesting from here...

* BringMyBrownPants: When Camila proves that [[MuggingTheMonster she's more dangerous than the New Empire expected]], it's noted that Jacob has lost control of his bladder.


Added DiffLines:

** Luz's maid "Kiki" abused her position in the foster system to steal children away from their birth parents and sell them to the highest bidder. As a result, even time she even ''thinks'' of trying to harm a child, she's impaled with a dagger for each child she stole, and is haunted by the cries of all the babies who suffered and died due to her greed. Her hands also catch on fire, which is simply a standard sentence for malicious thieves and kidnappers rather than anything personalized to her.


Added DiffLines:

* MuggingTheMonster: A group of the "New Empire" gang go after Camila. Even outside of the apparent supernatural backup Eda has seemingly sent her, she's dangerous enough that she ''throws'' a stop sign pole through the window of their van, impaling one of them through the head, from ''three yards away''.

* AllMythsAreTrue: Besides the Norse pantheon, it's mentioned that others exist as well.
* CompositeCharacter: In this AU Eda is the goddess Hel and Raine is Baldr.
* ExtraParentConception: In this universe Luz is the biological child of Camila, Eda, ''and'' Raine.

* LoopholeAbuse: Although the pantheons have had contact with mortals (particularly the sexual kind) heavily limited for the last couple centuries, Eda and Raine could have Luz with Camila with no issue because those laws only apply to ''living'' deities, and they're half-dead and dead, respectively.
* SemiDivine: In this AU, Luz is the daughter of Camila (a mortal), Eda (the goddess Hel), and Raine (the deity Baldr), making her 2/3 divine, though it in turn makes it rather unclear what powers she'll develop. Apparently the last similar case was Theodore Roosevelt.
