Greece

Orion smiled a bit watching the servants. "Just say the word and I can show you my room."

She coiled up her braid in her hand and stood. "Ready when you are."

Orion stood up and offered his arm.

"Ah, Alea... to what do we owe this pleasure of seeing you again," an advisor asked by the gates.

Deep within her cloak, she didn't show an ounce of her flesh and muttered only one word, "Visiting."

Aurora took his arm and smiled. "Very chivalrous of you."

Orion smiled. "I may a warrior, but I'm also a gentlemen." He said escorting her out.

Aurora leaned into him. "Do you think Zeus would be angry if he saw us?"

"What do you mean?" Orion asked walking with her.

"He seems to get angry about a lot of things." Aurora said. "Oh, nevermind."

"How foolish of me to think that you would be working on the affairs of your land. Instead I find you working on the affairs of your heart, and lower things," Alea said expressionlessly stepping out from behind a pillar, "I could merely save you the hassles and you can have all the fun times you desire, if you hand over your responsibilities."

Orion smiled at Aurora. "I don't see why he would be angry about that." He said before looking at Alea. "And you are?"

(Orion hasn't taken Sparta over yet)

"Who let you in here?" Aurora asked Alea.

Orion sighed. "Come Aurora, let's just leave her. I don't feel up to dealing with his."

(Too tired... Must sleep..)

Aurora scurried past her. "She was queer."

(referring to the fact that she knew about him coming from her dreams. She's seen him as a hero for the people, a dream she's laughing over now.)

"is that how you would address a family relation?" alea asked before removing her hood of her cloak. She approached and looked him over, "same brown hair, covering bright eyes, and a handsome face. I can see why you are adored by Athena," she finished looking him over taking a step back.

"I will forgive you for not knowing, Athena is so wrapped up in how you'll be her champion, that she forgot me. Let me assure you Orion, my brother, that you will never get to forget me. My name is alea sorceress of the people, it was a pleasure to finally see you in the flesh."

(Haha, hit the sack then)

Orion sighed as Aurora went ahead and he looked at Alea. "I have just been made but a day ago and I've been busy fighting a Titan, we've just returned from Corinth. Alea is it? It's good to see I have a sibling then."

"my mistake, I went by my current observations of you sinking to the charms of the daughter of Aphrodite, believe me when I say that you should immediately drop that fancy for it will hinder you at your true potential. And in many cases a woman has been seen as the death of a man, hence why I defy te gods by being still unmarried."

Orion looked at Alea. "Sister, if I want to marry I will, and if I fancy Aurora then that is my choice not yours."

Alea smiled, "You've only been in the world a few days, the same as her, wouldn't you at least consider my advice? Surely you must agree that a woman can be a major distraction? When you become the hero that I see in my dreams, then you can relax and have everything that you want. But if you ever want to share the load?"

Orion crossed his arms. "Share the load? What load?"

Alea drew a breath, "A dream...Orion, you must believe what I have seen. I saw you as a great king, and how love your country so much. I have seen how your name will last through the ages. The possibility of... of altering the outcome of your premonitions, I cannot let you do. That's why you need to start now, take on all the things you're to do. Fight battles, save cities and people. The kind of load, that maybe might be too overwhelming for someone new to things, whereas I've had 24 years of living and experience."

Orion sighed. "Alea, wouldn't having a woman by my side make all those things easier? Besides, we're Gods Alea there is nothing we cannot do."

"You cannot die," Alea said immediately, "You're a god, but I'm not sure what I am exactly. I do not believe I will be so lucky to live forever. Blame it on jealously, as most probably will, but you have centuries of being a ruler, I don't see it being that long."

"You don't think I'd rule for centuries?" Orion said.

"Not with that Aurora women," Alea reminded him, "Besides, I didn't finish what should had been that I would be very grateful, if you were to allow me to take the role off your hands, and when you're ready to do the things I've dreamed of you-"

She turned sharply gripping her hand on the pillar, with her eyes going white.
