"I, Hermes, messenger of the gods, come bearing news for Apollo!"
Apollo kept practicing his lyre. "What now, Hermes?"
"My news is urgent. The high priestess at Delphi has been murdered."
Apollo stopped playing. "WHAT?! How?"
"A knife to the chest. A note was found near her body that said 'Guess My Name'." Hermes replied. "It was written in her blood."
Apollo screamed in rage. "WHO DARES KILL A HIGH PRIESTESS OF MINE?"
Hermes cowered in the corner as Apollo stormed (quite literally) to him. "Don't kill the messenger! Please?"
Apollo sighed. "I guess I must tell the other Olympians. Come, Hermes. I won't kill the messenger." Apollo took Hermes by the arm and led him towards the throne room.
