Chapter Text
In Sir Tony’s Apprentice, Medieval knight Sir Tony Stark acquired a boy slave during the Sack of Asgard, a kingdom in Far Eastern Europe. He named the slave Silver (but we also know him as Loki). After several adventures, he decided the apprenticeship was complete, and sent more-grown-up Loki off to college.
But Tony had his own secrets, and his own reasons for joining the free-lance band called the Avengers.
Scholar (and freed man) Loki returns to their home in Lorraine (well, middle Francia; a bit south of what would later be called Lorraine) after graduation to find his mentor gone, and Tony’s unknown vengeance--a task in which Tony promised that Loki would participate—perhaps undertaken without him. But he doesn’t know enough about Tony’s distant past to follow him. All that Tony specifically mentioned is that he has a wife.
Loki finds the remains of a jar of wine, and gets drunk.
