The man on the roof looked down angrily. He had been convinced that Galahad's religion would make him easy to manipulate but Arthur had no gullible knights. He'd always underestimated humans. He was not actually a man but a god called Loki he was once considered the god of mischief by the people of northern Europe. He has recently been apart of a group of ancient gods who have grown tired of being ignored. He was curious as to why the leaders of his group wanted the half-god dead it seemed to him that he would be more useful as a pawn but instead they were going to make him a martyr.
Nemesis took Hercules to meet some one living in a forest. He recognized the sound of the pipes as they entered. He knew they were about to encounter a god older than the Olympians. Pan was one of what the gods called the First. Mortals had considered him a simple fertility god but in truth he was the essence of the wild. Nemesis thought he might know some thing they didn't. He stood next to a tree playing his flute as they approached. He looked the same as he had in ancient times, with the legs of a goat and torso of a man with two little horns on his head. He smiled brightly as Hercules approached, in his childhood Pan had often visited him teaching him of the forest and the animals. He laughed when he was told of the hero's dream.
Jack went to the apartment to see if they'd returned but instead found a man sitting in the living room she didn't recognize. He stood up and introduced himself as Achilles. Jack stared at him for a moment before she asked him why he was there. He told her he was there to kill Hercules, she burst into laughter. Achilles looked at her annoyed. Since he'd first become a warrior he'd been compared to Hercules all his life he had listened to people tell of his adventures and he would tell people that his legend would over shadow the demi-god but it wasn't to be. No matter what he accomplished The memory of the son of Zeus was always greater. This was his chance to finally show the world who was greater.
Galahad sat in a cafe staring at the case across from him. The legendary sword inside contained power that the knight didn't understand when he'd carried it uncovered it felt heavy almost too much to bare. It wasn’t truly heavy he'd carried larger weapons with ease but this sword was weighed down by power. He remembered seeing Arthur carry it as if it had been weightless. He knew he couldn't handle it no one could except for his long dead king or perhaps this ancient hero that all this plotting seems to revolve around.
Yu read the letter E had given him it told of a way to kill immortals and issued a proposition about how to obtain it. He went to pack a bag he was going to find out if this had any merit.
