Second investigation

[letsplayamod]

[Friday has come once again, Typhon’s deadline for the carrot of a motive dangled in front of their faces. Temptations abound and, when the godlings stir in the morning, the air feels thick in a way it hasn’t before. Thunder rumbles outside and the sound of sheets of rain pour down but only ends up pounding against Athena’s protective barrier. No one could ask for a finer umbrella.

There's no more monstrous cyclops threatening your morning. The horses were corralled back to their stables to wind down from the frightening excitement of last Wednesday. From then on, Typhon's threats have once more grown quiet. Everything seems to be... fine.

Still, something feels off.]

Yeah. You gotta have enough profit to get you through the door and to the auction, so getting that last bit is important.

Makes as much sense as anything they did on Earth, I guess. A little more, actually.

[Why WOULDN'T the grind keep going after death.]

You didn't strike me as particularly religious.

[latinumsbetter]

[that will get him to glance at her, then]

How do you mean?

[sweetsynergy]

Well one, your world sounds a lot like mine. Give or take.

[Closer than anyone else's has been anyway.]

There's not a lot of that kind of belief anymore? Not super widespread, at least.

[Maybe that's just on her.]

Also we were brought here on the promise of becoming gods, it feels like something that would sort of lend itself to religious beliefs getting brought up.

[latinumsbetter]

[well, she's not wrong there] In my universe, everyone's got different beliefs. Ways to explain how the universe works. Some gods you can see and talk to, some you can't. What one person calls a god, another calls an alien that inhabits a wormhole. It's a big jumble.
