Thea seamlessly took on the life of a god but has yet to proclaim what she stands for. She takes her lessons in the morning answers prayers in the afternoon, and dines with the gods at night. Today, she was summoned in front of the council of the gods, to give her a proposition that could change history. As Thea walked into the room Zeus and Jupiter stood and spoke in perfect unison, "Thea, you have until the Winter Solstice to proclaim what you stand for or your immortality will be revoked and you will become mortal. Until the Winter Soltice you will stay with Hades and Pluto. You have two hours to prepare for your journey and be off fo Olympus. With that the council dispersed and Thea ran away from the altar to the edge of Olympus and jumped. As I ran to the edge and looked at her, she sat crying in the middle of a cloud that hung low near the bottom the the mountain. As I watched her, for what seemed like hours she never looked up or noticed I was looking at her. As day turned to night, I rose from where I was sitting and entered the great hall and sat as the sent of sacrifices floated through the room and ambrosia and nectar were dispersed among us.
