Second trial
The time has come once again. Gather in the arena, it is time for judgement.
[The murky weather outside reflects the mood of the walk out to the cliffs. Once again, several soldiers have stepped free of Typhon's veins to stand guard over the arena. Maybe it's a mistake, but they seem to offer their silent condolence, if not their indifference.
With everyone gathered, a great rift opens once more outside the barrier. Typhon reveals himself, this time only from the waist up. Peering down from his glowing portal, blanketed in the last light drizzles outside your shimmering dome.]
Bah... So safe and secure within your bubble. Or, perhaps not anymore. [He moves to rest a palm on the barrier, and recoils as it once again stings his palm.] See what your Athena has 'gifted' you - nothing but strife. A broken world that needs rebuilding... But no matter. I will complete that task once we are through.
You have your evidence. Now, begin.
[TRIAL START]

cw: suicide mention
Alex did want to live. But when we spoke not too long ago, and my own age as a demigod came up, he also told me he didn't want to live forever. He didn't seem all that happy with possibly living as long as I have.
[But that wouldn't mean he killed himself, would it? Find a way to talk to Athena first, before taking that step...]
