Fantasy Pantheon Infinite

[The Darkling]

Persephone thought for a moment, "A beacon sounds like a good idea..but how will these beacons come to be? And all of us knowing how Hades is wont give a single thought about helping others. So what is my part i this?" She finished her tea and turned to face Nyx.

 

[LoveThyDemons]

Nyx thought for a moment. She then moved her hands in front of her to make a small glowing orb of red light. She handed it to Persephone. "Tell Uncle Hades that this came from Ira. Considering how well we get along, I'm sure he'll accept it." a note then appeared and Nyx tucked the orb into a box with the note on it. "This will tell him that it's a beacon, but it is used to enhance service. Servants will work twice as hard, the damned in Tartarus will be tortured twice as brutally, and the blessed will feast twice as heartily." she handed the box to Persephone.

 

[The Darkling]

Persephone stood and nodded, "Not bad my dear sister not bad..I always knew you were the more creative" She smiled and took the box, she then summoned her own light and the box disappeared. "Its in a safe place hidden in my room for when I get back..whenever that is"


(Do forgive me if my posts are a little short)

 

[RelaxImTheKing]

Zeus smiled seeing how the two of them got along so well "I think that this will work very well, are you sure you think you can convince him?" he asked Persephone. (dont worry about it)

 

[The Darkling]

persephone laughed quietly, "When it comes to me that man is easy to mess with...if it means helping find out whatever is causing this...ill give him what he wants" Her smile faded and turned into a look of disgust.

 

[LoveThyDemons]

Nyx looked at Persephone, then turned her eyes to the ground. She remembered what it was like...to feel like a prisoner in your own palace. She didn't get treated the way Persephone did. No, her treatment was much...crueler and merciless.


Loki eyed Nyx. That hit a nerve... he thought. He looked to Persephone. So, the age old tale is true. Imprisoned by a man who loves her for portions of the year, only for her to wilt and never love him back. One would've assumed Stockholm Syndrome would've come into affect. I've seen it work on gods before...

 

[The Darkling]

Persephone ran a hand through her hair, changing her mood. "Nothing I havent handled before though..so you shouldnt have any problems there Nyx" She patted her sisters shoulder and smiled gently. She looked in loki's direction. The vibe she had felt from his was always confusing. She longed for her freedom but she had forgotten that ages ago, besides even the underworld needed a womans touch.

 

[LoveThyDemons]

Nyx looked up. "I've loved seeing you." she smiled, banishing her bad memories. She again hugged her sister. "Hopefully things will work out for you." she then looked to Zeus. "What now?"


Loki buttoned up his shirt and put on his suit jacket. He readied himself to leave.

 

[The Darkling]

Persephone wondered if she should go with them all or head right back to the underworld to begin her part in all this. Zeus had said he could take her, and she could try and figure more out. But if the beacon needed to be lit then she needed to do it soon before it was found by someone else.

 

[RelaxImTheKing]

"Now we have to place all the beacons up to locate the rest of the gods" Zeus said as he looked at Loki "you are welcome to come"

 

[LoveThyDemons]

Loki grinned "Excellent." he looked at Nyx. "I look forward to getting to know you better." from the glare he received, he cleared his throat. "All of you, I mean." he stammered.

 

[The Darkling]

Persephone knew she needed to go back now, but coming back wont be to difficult. She felt the servants anxiety grow and it made her nervous, "I must go back now...but I will return as soon as I can to talk more about this. I will send word if Hades takes the box. It really was nice to see you all again" She stood up and curtsied calling for one of her servants.

 

[RelaxImTheKing]

"Be careful" he said feeling uncomfortable that she had to go back. "I'm sorry" he mumbled

 

[The Darkling]

Persephone looked to the servant that appeared next to her, "Mistress we must go now..supper is ready and the King is waiting" She nodded and looked to her father, "Ill be fine...your daughter is stronger than you think.." She waved to her sister and suddenly she was gone.

 

[LoveThyDemons]

Nyx opened a portal and whistled. A shade flew in. She handed it a glowing green orb. "Take this to Poseidon and tell him to alight it." she told it. The shade whistled in confirmation and went through the portal. She then made a golden orb and handed it to Zeus. "You and Loki take this to Olympus." she said, making a purple orb. "I'm taking this to Ira. I'll meet you back on Olympus." she then leaned in close to her father. "Keep an eye on him..." she whispered, then warped away in a flourish of darkness.


"She has mastery over ALL shadow people?" Loki asked, looking at the spot where Nyx stood. "Even more incredible than I thought."

 

[The Darkling]

Persephone rushed down the hall and into her bedroom, she had to change into her evening gown just as she always did but she had to be quick. She was late as it was and pushed her time limit on earth. She brushed her hair out quickly and slipped off her day gown. Going through her trunk of clothes she pulled out the long red velvet dress with its floor length sleeves. She tied a black sash around her waist and made her way to the dinning room. A voice boomed in the room and she kept her head down, "Forgive me my King for making you wait.."


Hades sat at the end of the long black mahogany table with a look of boredom on his face, "And what, shall I ask, took you so long my beloved Queen?" He sat up straight and eyed her, his long silver hair falling over his arms.

 

[RelaxImTheKing]

"Yes she is rather good with magic...anyway let's go on up to Olympus." Zeus said as he opened a portal to Olympus.

 

[LoveThyDemons]

Loki cleared his throat. "After you." he nodded to the portal. I hope he's not like Odin...gods, I would blow a fuse... he thought, remembering his 'blood brother' and how he threw him to Midgard like he had done to Jormungundr.

 

[The Darkling]

Persephone sat down and folded her hands together, "I was simply trying to look nice for you my love..I had been looking for this dress but simply misplaced it" She smiled at him and smoothed her hair over her shoulder.


Hades grinned wide, "Well my darling I must say i'am pleased..you look as delectable as ever" He had a sinister glint in his eyes and raisd his glass to her. "To my beautiful bride.." He took a long sip of his wine and began eating.


Persephone smiled and took a sip of her wine, hiding her feelings of dismay with a face he will only ever think of as infatuation. And even if he did know her feelings towards him, he simply ignored it.

 

[LoveThyDemons]

Nyx walked through the throne room of her palace. As she approached her throne, one of her Elite, a male shade named Asclius, watched her. "Your Grace?" he asked. Nyx kept forward, and stepped up onto her throne; made of gold and red cushions, encrusted with onyxes. She placed the orb in a small brazier on top of the throne. The room glowed with a faint purple hue. "Keep this beacon going. If anyone is to come here, send them to Olympus." she told Asclius. "As you wish, Your Grace." Asclius nodded to her. With that, Nyx opened a portal to Olympus and walked through.

 

[RelaxImTheKing]

Zeus walks throught the portal and stands at his throne looking aroundthinking of a place to place it and finally decides to put it on the pillar on the top of mount olympus. "There" he said in a gruff tone "now all we need are the others to do there part"

 

[The Darkling]

Persephone put her fork down and looked to her husband, "My king..my I speak?"


Hades looked surprised and put his own fork down, "But of course my dear..but do so quickly" He grinned and leaned back in his chair.


Persephone cleared her throat, "One of my servants has brought me something from my sister..it is addressed to you. I do believe its a gift" She prayed to any god that would listen that this would work.


Hades arched his brow, "And this servant delivered it to you and not me? That is quite strange..much like many of the things going on currently with the gods"

 

[LoveThyDemons]

Loki looked at Zeus. "So Nyx." he said. "What's up with her? Why is she so aggressive?" he asked. "You said she's your daughter, but looks nothing like you. And she said something about being a 'child of chaos'?"

 

[RelaxImTheKing]

"She is adopted...her mother chaos gave her to me to make sure she was raised right." He said eying Loki. "Why do you ask?"

 

[The Darkling]

Persephone stood up and walked over to where Hades sat and perched on the arm of his chair, "You were busy my love..you know how the servants are. You have struck fear into their hearts and know not to both you whilst you work" She traced her finger down his chest and looked hm in the eyes. "It was the only thing that poor servant could do..to come to his gracious Queen"


Hades eyed her body the stopped at her eyes, "Yes...you are quite right. i have done well to keep them under my wrath." He put his finger and her chin and stroked her neck, "Sometimes I fear you are to gracious..." He gently grabbed her face and licked his lips.
