Warning: Gore, Blood, that kind of jazz.

The Cursed Goddess: Previously on Escape the Night.

The Cursed Goddess: Joey wakes up in the forest with the YouTubers. The YouTubers question Joey from where he is.

The Cursed Goddess: Joey doesn't tell the group, but before the YouTubers could ask him more questions, My aunts Hera and Hestia find the group.

The Cursed Goddess: They ask for help, to save the other deities, but not before I send the Caucasian Eagle after them.

The Eagle Flies off, leaving the group Liza-less.  Hestia puts out the fire that caught onto her sleeve, as Hera watches the bird soar off.

Joey Graceffa, The Savant: That was the second time Liza got kidnapped by a bird. 

"Oh my god, Liza!" Mac yells at the night. Thomas stands on his toes to see the bird, but the Eagle has flown too far for him too see

"We must hide, the Bird could come back any moment." Hestia warns. She stomps out of the woods, with Hera following gracefully.

Mac, The King: Guess we're going with the scary ladies, okay. The scary ladies with godly powers. Okay.

Hestia ushers the YouTubers into an open spot, a hearth sitting on the middle of the open.

We all gather around the big fireplace, the YouTubers looking behind them every now and them.

"How is this supposed to help us?" Ally asks the goddess. The other murmured in agreement with Ally.

Ally Hills, The Poet: There is space everywhere for the Bird to catch us. How? How?

"The Hearth is a space of holiness. Nobody could hurt us even if they tried. Especially with it's patron goddess within it." Hestia explains to the poet.

Damien and Thomas seemed to be okay with that explanation, sitting down at the logs that acted as chairs. The others stood, still nervous of the trees that hide potential threats.

"I doubt that-," Jaiden starts to say but a loud caw noise cuts her sentence off. They all jumped out of their skins.

The Eagle comes back, Liza nowhere to be seen. The monster flies towards them. Everyone screams, but an invisible orange barrier blocks it from hurting them.

"I could just, put out the fire." Hestia says passive aggressively.

She holds a water bottle to it, threatening to douse the flames. No!" The YouTubers yelled, as Hestia continues to dangle the water above the fire that kept them safe.

Mac, The King: I'm about to... *punches air*

Hestia takes the water bottle away from the fire. The YouTubers breathe in relief as the Eagle flies away, giving up on them.

"So, how do we stop it?" The Savant says.

Rebecca Parham, The Actor: Really? That's your first question? How about 'Where are we?' or 'Why is a giant eagle attacking us?

Hestia nods at the ground. "That, was the Caucasian Eagle. Every single one of them has that medallion they have. We need to break it to unchain the gods from their prisons."

"But we also have to kill the monster." Hera adds in to Hestia's statement. Joey sighed, hoping and wishing for an easy way out.

Joey Graceffa, the Savant: Why can't it be a little bit easy? Why?
