SING, O GODDESS


[The place that Zagreus brings them to is an abandoned house. Like the rest of Greece, at first the grass and plants are dead, withered. But only at first.

As everyone files into the garden, it starts to slowly come to life. flowers begin to bloom. Fruits and vegetables start to sprout from the soil. The trees begin to grow once more. Wheat stalks slowly pop up out of the ground. Wherever this is, it's clear that life is returning-and the gods are awakening.

It's probably best that they don't return to the underworld, to the House of Hades-but, if anyone wishes to, Charon has arrived with the dead from the previous rounds-now alive-and little baby Ayame. If anyone wishes to go there-though, why would anyone ever willingly go back to the House, knowing you-know-who is probably awake by now?-they can.

But for those who stay here, there is food and drink, wine and bread, fresh meat and ripe crudités. Talk. Plot. Say your goodbyes before you are SHIFTed back to your homeworlds.

Who knows? Maybe there are still some surprises left to be had. But, either way...it is a good day. The new moon will pass. The sun will rise.

The Game-or at least, this variation of it-is over.]



((OoC: And with this, Round 7 is complete! Thank you everyone who participated-we hope you enjoy the aftermath, and stay tuned for the SHIFT Meme and HMD!))

[Oh, no, that's so funny. A startled prey animal moment for the road. Makima will start slicing the peeled apple now, but very slowly and carefully, taking a couple test swings before each chop. She lets out a louder giggle.]

Hehe.

[exequte]

Huh? Huh?

[Wait a second, she heard that laugh. And it didn't sound like it was coming from the dagger....

Suspicious now, Akane examines the room and then peers around the door frame.]

[There is no Makima behind the doorframe!

...but there is one on the other side of a wine cabinet right next to the doorframe, whistling innocently.

The dagger continues slicing the apple into comically thin slices.]
