Greece

Ajax swung his large warhammer at Hector's head.

Lysander walked into the room with Tyranus.

Megaera sensed Apollonis, making her focus want to go more towards him, but first she had to sort out the problem with the witch. Looking back at Alea, her eyes turned to white and smiled evilly as the spell took hold, finally resuming her walk down the steps to the arena. She didn't enter the fight but summoned more lions for them to go up against.

Alea wondered what Megaera had done, but soon started to feel it. Her legs locked into place and it slowly spread up her body until all that she could move was her eyes.

Apollonis walked to the lions as the others prepared for what they assumed would be the coming attack. The lions lay down at his feet and he smiled leaning down to scratch thier heads "Good kitties, now go."


Demetrios lay back on the bed resting.

Lysander walked over to Demetrios. "Lord Demetrios, I bring word from Orion."

Megaera jumped over the railing into the arena and looked at the other fighters, "You can all go... save your pathetic small lives."

She swiftly caught a blow from the Amazon's princesses sword, sending it flying and seized her throat.

"Let her go" Apollonis shouted aiming his bow at Megera.


"what does he wish from me." Demetrios asked

Lysander nodded. "Straight to the point, Orion wishes to know if you are siding with him or with the other Olympians and he wishes you a speedy recovery."

"We are both gods of war, I would be a fool if I didn't side with him" Demetrios said

Lysander nodded and smiled. "He just wanted to make sure. We have established ourselves in Syracuse to raise an army. Sparta is too close to Greece and the Spartan Army is in Troy currently."

"We will join him soon then" Demetrios said

Hector ducked beneath the hammer slashing at the back of Ajax's knees as he moved forward

Ajax grunted and fell to one knee swinging his hammer back around and hitting Hector in the back.

Lysander nodded. "Glad to hear it."

Hector stumbled forward managing to keep his feet as another Trojan soldier came in swinging for Ajax's head.

Ajax ducked and grabbed the Trojan throwing him aside like a rag doll as he came after Hector.

"A god asking for the life of a mere mortal, even if she is an Amazon princess?" Megaera sneered, beheading the warrior princess, but looked surprised as a bright light appeared behind Apollonis and shielded her eyes with one hand.

Cyniska helped Apollaine dismount and headed over quickly, "We'll take care of this woman. Where's Alea?"

~~~~~~~~~

Up on the balcony, Alea sensed someone near and tried to look past her blind spot, her nerves going through her body and then she heard a voice near her neck.

"You're a powerful witch goddess. I-I mean you ... have power, girl, it's just coming off you in waves.

Hector came at Ajax slamming his shield into the larger man.


"On the balcony" Apollonis said

Ajax only staggered a little and grabbed Hector's shield throwing it aside and causing Hector to get slung into the ground as well.

Lysander after speaking with Demetrios some more headed back to the harbor to return to Syracuse.

Adastros sat in the throne room, thinking. "Hmm side with Orion...or Gaia...or Poseidon..."

Hector grunted getting back to his feet

Ajax was swinging his war hammer down at Hector as he got up.

Hector rolled back out of the way.

Ajax grunted lifting his war hammer again and swinging it at Hector.

Hector ducked diving between his legs and cutting his tendons.

Ajax roared in pain falling to his knees.

Hector swung for his head

Ajax fell over in the sands.

Achilles and his Myrmidons were absent from the battle.

Hector looked around as his men pushed the Greeks back.
