Xander nodded "Then we should get some rest. I'll show you to your room."

"Let's hope it doesn't go that far." Demetrios sighed

"Better pray then." Adastros chuckled.

"To who?" Demetrios said

Adastros smiled. "That's the kicker isn't it? The mortals have us but who do we have?"

Alea smiled picking up her skirts.

Demetrios sighed shrugging "Wait here for Orion."

"I will." Adastros said.

Callisto kissed her and nodded. "Alright."

Aridonis kissed her again before pulling out.

Nexus waited for Leona and Nikkita.

Callisto got up and dressed to head out.

Aridonis headed out after getting dressed.

Callisto walked with Aridonis. "So where is Orion camped?"

Orion was speaking with Adastros, making him an offer.

"Thank you," Alea said having been shown her room, and closed the door. A moth flew out from the wall, and her eyes flashed red, burning it to pieces, sniggering and headed to the wardrobe. Pulling out a black dress she held it against herself.

"Very seductive, and perfect for mourning his death, once I've killed him," she chuckled in a deep voice.

Xander headed to his room to rest before they set off in the morning

Alea stood before the mirror admiring her body before she warmed herself up with a bath abd turned impressed with parts if herself.

Meanwhile, Apollaine walked Apollonis's home corridors searching for him.

"Macadonia I think"

Apollonis home was abandoned with the rest of Troy.

Apollaine reached the end of the corridors and looked about, finding it empty and deserted. Standing in the main hall, she turned on the spot and then used her magic to knock all the torches over, sending up flames, and on the way out, each of them were knocked to the floor, engulfing the place into fire.

Alea woke before dawn and quietly headed down the stairs to the adjacent stables, stealing a horse, riding off on it.

Xander took off following Alea not long after she had left. He caought up to her quickly "M'lady, it is not safe for you to travel alone."

"Get out of my way little boy," she replied hastily.

"I am only here to serve you" Xander said "I will not leave your side."

"Really? I hope you don't take offence but it seems you and your god are...stupid," came the reply as she dismounted. Removing the cloak the size of her changed and she headed around the horse to face him, not as Alea but Ares. He walked right over to Xander looking him up and down with a snigger, "Not realising that I'm not your precious witch-goddess and leaving her to die like that..." Ares said finally.

"Ares" Xander gasped drawing his sword. He kicked the god in the chest catching him by surprise and knocking him back as he dropped from his horse."What have you done with the lady Alea?"

"Just teaching her what I warned her about on the boat over," Ares gloated.

Xander slashed Ares with his sword "Where is she?"
