Noise comes from the screen, with the speaking, a video appears.

Furina can't really take a break, can she? Cause really if she remembered anything about one of the legends of Barbatos,

"...Barbatos? Who's that? It sounds like one of those demons from the Lesser Key of Solomon?" Annabeth questions. Percy just looked at her strangely.

"Lady Furina," a tall male with long white hair, sporting strands of blue, calls out softly.

Was that he guides dead spirits to a very permanent afterlife, should have added the fact that reincarnation was part of the deal. Especially reincarnation on a world that was not on Teyvat!

"Now, what is Teyvat?" Athena questions, after all the millenia that the gods had existed, they hadn't heard of this place.

"Teyvat is our world, where the Seven archons rule. Archons are gods." Aether describes.

"There is Barbatos, God of freedom, the Anemo Archon.

Morax, God of contracts, the Geo Archon.

Beelzebul, God of eternity, the Electro Archon.

Buer, God of wisdom, the Dendro Archon.

Focalors, God of Justice, the Hydro Archon

Haborym, God of war, the Pyro Archon

Tsaritsa, God of love, the Cryo Archon." Millia calls from the front of the room. each of the named people lighting up when their names were called.

"....That's interesting," Athena notes, her eyes gleaming with the want for knowledge. Despite not being as vocal as Athena, Apollo was on the edge of his seat, intrigued.

"But really the worst thing was that, she'll go down in Fontaine History - if Fontaine still even exists - as the Fake Archon who failed to save her nation."

"Fake God?" Percy groans, even in another life he can't get a rest.

"For archons sake she was ready to die just to keep a lie and save her people. But she can't even do that can she!? No, because she died from crying! Death by tears! What a laughing stock!

So here she was, now reincarnated as 8 year old Persephone Furina Jackson. It was nice to still have her name. She had asked her mother what her name meant, she was apparently named by two goddesses in different mythologies. Persephone the Greek Goddess of Spring (nature and season) and Furina the minor Roman Goddess of Springs (a water body)."

"...Poseidon... tell me you didn't..." LO. Zeus says through gritted teeth, clenching onto the armrest of his throne.

"I have no idea what you're talking about, brother." LO. Poseidon replies simply and without looking.

"Yes you do." LO. Hades adds.

"And? So what?" LO. Poseidon says with a grumble.

The video chooses then to continue.

"But the literal translation of the name was 'Bringer of Destruction' and 'Bubbling of Water'. The first one was not really one would name their kids, but it was hers.

She lives with her mother Sally Jackson in a small apartment complex that she barely affords with her low salary. It was a very 180 from her lavish lifestyle as the Archon of Fontaine, at least even when she got dethroned in the event her ruse got found out, Furina had financial funds she had saved from her performances throughout 500 years that could afford her needs for a human's lifetime. Though it seems that was quite pointless to do, considering she had never been able to use it."
