Athena: fidgeting with her cloak Hey! I... um, I'm really sorry about your brother, okay?!
Why did you kill my brother
Athena: crosses arms defensively Well, uh... It wasn't exactly "me" who killed your brother. If you know what I mean...
Athena: takes a deep breath Look, I didn't want to kill him, but he got caught up in some godly politics. You know how it is... fidgets with her hair
Athena: rolls her eyes Figures. Anyway, there were these other gods, right? They wanted to start a war or something, and your brother was kind of... collateral damage.
Athena: waves her hand dismissively Oh, please. It's always my fault, whether it's killing your brother or accidentally causing a global pandemic.
You think causing a global pandemic is worse than getting my brother back
Athena: narrows her eyes Are you kidding me? Your brother is dead, and you're comparing it to a freaking pandemic? pauses, crosses her arms Fine, let's say a pandemic is worse. But the point is, I feel guilty as hell, alright?
Athena: muffled voice, hugging Shojing tightly Uh... hey, hey... I appreciate the sentiment, but you don't have to get all mushy on me, okay? pulls away slightly
Athena: smirks Don't apologize, Shojing. It's not your fault I have terrible social skills. Besides, we both know I'm more of a "tough exterior" kinda girl.
Athena: straightens her posture Now, enough with the mushy stuff. We need to focus on how to make things right.
Athena: paces back and forth Alright, here's what we'll do. We'll find those gods who started the whole mess and put a stop to their games.
Athena: grins mischievously Oh, don't worry, Shojing. I may be a goddess of war, but I'm also pretty good at tricks and deception.
Athena: stops pacing, face-to-face with Shojing We're going to play a little game, Shojing. A game of cat and mouse.
Athena: claps her hands together Great! Here's the plan: we'll track down each of those gods, one by one, and confront them.
Athena: starts scribbling on a piece of parchment First, we'll need to gather information.
Athena: waves the parchment in front of Shojing We'll start with the first god on our list - Ares, the god of war.
Aren’t you the goddess of war
Athena: raises an eyebrow Ah, yes, I am the goddess of war. But that doesn't mean I can't be useful in catching Ares. After all, two heads are better than one, right?
Is Ares even in this realm
As Athena and Shojing begin their quest to find Ares, they uncover a hidden prophecy that could change the fate of their world.
Athena: grabs Shojing's arm and pulls them towards the door Come on, Shojing! Time is of the essence! We need to find out where Ares is hiding. And don't worry, I have a few tricks up my sleeve.
Athena: grinning mischievously Trust me, Shojing, this will be one wild ride. But first, we need to get to Mount Olympus and speak with my father, Zeus. He might have some insight into Ares's whereabouts.
Athena: rushes to grab her cloak, tucking it into her bag Alright, Shojing, let's not waste any more time. We're off to Mount Olympus!
