After battling some Storm Giants in Jotunheim, Thor and Loki discover a fissure in a nearby rock wall that Thor fears may be connected to the hidden entrance to Olympus that had been sealed off by Zeus during an earlier visit to that area. When Loki ignores Thor's demand that they leave and instead enters the fissure, Thor is forced to follow him, but Loki is already out of sight by the time Thor enters the caverns to which the fissure leads. Finding that there are multiple branching tunnels before him, Thor decides that he will try only one of the tunnels and, if he doesn't find Loki, then he will leave him to his fate. However, while walking through the tunnel he had chosen, Thor is engulfed by strange mists that rob him of his memory. Once through and in a strange forest, he meets Aeneas and finds himself involved in the Trojan War. After his adventures, and a battle with Zeus after regaining his memory, Thor returns to the forest where he meets Loki who tells him that he had lost his memory as well. Loki then adds that he had contributed to the war in his own way by giving a bit of advice to an astute Argive prince, Odysseus of Ithaca, leading to the creation of a giant wooden horse that would be instrumental in the destruction of Troy.
