Endgame: Part 2

[letsplayamod]

The week goes on. A small miracle, how quiet it is. With no motives or attacks to speak of, you can breathe a sigh of relief even when a tension gripes the air. So few of you now, what exactly would you do were Typhon to return and decide the game was over? Was Athena always going to be out of reach? And what exactly did she want you to find in the center of this mountain temple, anyway?

Questions abound, and no answers.

...Until this morning. The sky itself is clear with very few clouds, but something still falls into your home. Not "physically," though, it's more of a feeling. The sensation of some great power entering this space. Everyone will notice it, and the way it passes by, sinking beneath the floors - all the way to the bottom level.

And there it ends up, waiting for someone brave enough to investigate.

While we're doing that, I'd kind of like to circle back to the fact that Typhon has someone pulling his strings or yanking his chain, and probably both.

That as well! Ah, two months and there's so much we still don't know...

A second...? [That perplexes Athena. Her expression dipping into a frown.]

It turns out, I was in a kind of stasis after I fell into Typhon's trap. For most of it... I can only recall scant faces and voices. I was never made aware of who exactly was containing me with Typhon's assistance, but this force must be powerful indeed.

... How long did you think it had been, when we contacted you?

[mygoodbye]

Hours? Days? Time has little meaning in Tartarus.

Hmm... I could have sworn you said you didn't know where you were during the seance. But hindsight is clearer sometimes, isn't it?
