"Uhm yeah I can."

Lilyana smiled at Eddie greatful for the interruption, "yes please! Let's go!"

She linked arms with Eddie and tugged her towards outside, a mischievous gleam back in her eye.

"Oh, uh... sorry." Aster apologizes.

Aster also followed.

Eddie followed.

Lilyana steps outside and nearly falls into a pit. Quickly she makes a bridge of ice to span the chasm.

"What in the storms happened out here?"

"Athena? Is this what she normally does?"

[Ookla de los Cuervos he/him]

xq slowly gets up, trembling. "that was not fun" then he looks out the door and he just sits down. "not again-"

Lilyana shook her head? "Not normally no. She usually just sends people after those she wants. Usually her cannon fodder cultists." She looked to Rue and gently squeezes her hand, "do you know if Athena is even capable of something like this?"

"Maybe it's the work of one of Athena's friends- or cultists?"

Eddie shrugs. “It doesn’t seem like her, but…I don’t know who else it could be. I’m sure she’s capable, but she likes to be subtle. Twisting.”

[Ookla de los Cuervos he/him]

there's a pained scream from inside. "THIS IS NOT HAPPENING AGAIN" and a blur flys out.

"So is it .... a gambit?"

[Immortal Platypus]

The platypus walks outside and stumbles before catching himself. "This is probably not the work of Athena. It seems more like the work of Shing-zu-tael. Eddie, how many freaking gods do you have trying to kill you?! Keeping you alive is going to be harder than I thought. But I have to, or..." He shudders, apparently lost in thought. "It would be... very bad. I've seen it."

"Well we should obviously leave since we've been found...again," sighs Lilyana.

She glares at the platypus, "of course it will be bad if she's gone. She'd be dead!!"

[Ookla de los Cuervos he/him]

the blur begins a weaving of some sort, and the earth shakes as the ground moves back together.

“I DONT KNOW,” Eddie says. “I PROMISE, IF I COULD MAKE IT STOP I WOULD.”

“I know, Princess. I know.” Eddie smiles at her sadly. “And I know you won’t leave, but I’m going to tell again you anyway, because you never have to stay and deal with my problems. If you want out, you’re free to go.”

[Ookla de los Cuervos he/him]

the ground finally comes back together, and it knits itself to normalcy.

Lilyana smiles sadly back, "you know me too well, Lady. And you're completely right, I'll never leave your side."

“You’re still here?” Eddie asks. “What truth do you want? Athena’s a monster. That good enough for you?”

"But who is she to you? Why is she after you?"

@Edema Rue

Aster was completely silent, but not out of seething hatred, but out of satisfaction.

[Ookla de los Cuervos he/him]

xq collapses directly in front of the group, covered in sweat. "i dont like doing that"

Eddie squeezes her hand tighter, then turns and glares at the ghost.

“Look, mate, I don’t know what to tell you. She’s my aunt, right? And we aren’t exactly one big happy family. Athena’s a monster. She eats souls, feeds on them, and once she gets an idea in her head she can’t let it go. And she wants my soul. I don’t know why so many other people are involved, apparently something bad will happen when I die; if not for all of them, she probably would’ve got to me years ago. That enough for you?”

"Does a god-like being such as her not have a certain level of ownership over her family?"
