"Anger can be a weapon ... if you control it. ... You clearly cannot," Kratos to Atreus, GOW (2018)
///////////
Lyssa's Coven, located in Tartarus. After the fall of Zeus, it was created into Lyssa's abode and place of action along with her meeting place with her fellow gods.
"Lyssa! Your waste of a champion is faltering in faith! I feel our grip on her loosening. If you don't intervene and make her kill Kratos, then the prophecy will come true! We need to stop it at any means necessary! Do you understand the urgency in this?!"
"Continue speaking and I'll slit your throat, Nemesis. Now quiet yourself, so I can think," Lyssa said pacing around. She understood how angry Nemesis was. That feeling was everywhere amongst the members of her coven.
Restlessness fear.
"We have Zagreus in our possession and Calliope's soul. Let's threaten her and make her kill Kratos now!" Nemesis screamed.
"Why is Zagreus in your possession and how long has he been in it?" Lyssa asked, her eyes growing void of any emotion as she turned around to Nemesis.
Nemesis froze for a second and Lord Dolos walked in, followed by the Keres crazed spirits.
"Zagreus was found by me a few days ago, that little snake of Hades was sneaking around in the Chambers where the titaness Phoebe's spirit was. He wouldn't tell me what he was searching for, but he was apprehended easily with his magical items and weapons stripped from him. Strong warrior, but an ignorant child. I'll figure it out, Lyssa," Dolos said, tossing Zagreus' tied and gagged body in front of both Nemesis and Lyssa. He was out cold.
Lyssa smirked. "Knowing how smitten he is with Adoni, it must be about her prophecy. How foolish of a crowned prince."
The Maniae spirits appeared beside Lyssa and laughed a bit, swirling around her in a crazed fashion. "Was Calliope's soul enough to convince Adoni to take Kratos' life quicker?"
The spirits sounded saddened as they told Lyssa that Adoni is still faltering.
"We should be straightforward. Use your manipulation directly onto Adoni," Eris said, forming from the nearby shadows. "They say that doing it yourself helps better than having others do it for you. Ares' death amplified your anger manipulation so it should be able to reach her. Kratos telling her the truth will speed up our inevitable deaths by her hand just as the true prophecy states."
Dolos sighed. "Eris is right on that. Using your manipulation on Adoni may get her to where we need to be and speed up Kratos' death," he agreed.
Enyo stepped inside the coven and laughed wildly. "Phoebe's prophecy states that Lyssa using her anger manipulation on Adoni to blind her the same way Ares did Kratos will have equal catastrophies: we may be killed by the Ghost of Sparta's kid," she yelled, twisting her sword.
"There have been similar prophecies and mortals and heros alike have been able to change their destinies and fates. And what of after she kills Kratos?" Nemesis asked loudly. "She'll realize that she's no longer valuable to us."
"A deity who can be manipulated by a god into doing that god's bidding will never lose their value," Enyo said.
Eris laughed. "I bet Ares thought the exact same way. Now he's rolling in his grave," she replied. Enyo glared at her.
