Who: Gerasimos, passersby
When: Day 82, mid/late afternoon
Where: Shrine area
What: an interesting occurrence.

[so several of you may be drawn to the shrine area at the sounds of a loud argument.

Afterwards, Lupe is nowhere to be seen and Gerasimos is still standing in the shrine room, rubbing his throat idly]

One thing after another.

((This is the prelude to the event, which will be kicked off later tonight! Gerasimos will be hanging around to chat for a bit but as a forewarning I will be slow!))

Not at all. She's been having a difficult time adjusting.

Anything we can do to help speed up that process? I was trying to be on my best behavior, but oh my, I don't think she might have taken it that way.

Try scratching behind her ears. She's a dear soul.

Really?

You're not just trying to appease her by sending one of us to the underworld early, are you?

[chuckles]

Not entirely.

Then perhaps you could fill me in on the rest.

Mm. Perhaps, but that's not my nature. As she said, I watch, and I wait. And it turns out to be more entertaining that way.

Might be.

But the way you phrase it makes us poor mortals sounds like prizes or pawns in your godly squabbles.

That's unfortunate... I wouldn't want you to think we are any less subject to being pawns and prizes.

Pawns and prizes of whom? Other gods?

Not exclusively.

Do I get to hear this story? Or get at least a hint of where I might uncover the tale?

It's not a specific story, just a fact, like anything else.

But certainly you wouldn't mention something like that unless it has happened before.

There is, as they say, nothing new under the sun.
