Grr, I thought I told them to wait at the altar! Why did they have to go to the extra risk of using flying magecraft!?

Well, nothing to be done for it now.[sr]Open the deck hatch!

As soon as we've collected the field team, we're getting out of this airspace faster than you can say “skeddadle”!

A powerful Spirit Origin signal is headed towards us from the Dodona palace. It will reach the ship in ten...nine...eight...

Indeed. It was an absolutely perfect spell while it lasted. No question as to why she was queen of the gods.

If not for her delicate magecraft, I rather doubt we could have flown this far in safety.

Hey there. So, you punks really did make it out of[sr]there alive. Good. Wouldn't be any fun otherwise.

@Caenis
But weaseling out of tight spots is one of the things you lot do best, right? Knew flying here was the right choice.

@Caenis
So where're the twins and Europa?

[charaFace H 6]
@Caenis
Aha. So they're dead. Well hey, that figures.[sr]No point in saving their lives now, right?

@Caenis
So you went around pulling all the shit you wanted and decided to scram before it got real, huh? I like that. Hell of a lot less cleanup that way.

Go ahead and invite her to celebrate this victory with[line 2][wt 1.0][sr][charaFace D 7]Hm?

@Goredolf
Hold on. Are you sure that's really Caenis? That Spirit[sr]Origin pattern doesn't match the one in our records at all.
[k]
@Goredolf
While Caenis did have some Divinity mixed in previously, now there's divine aura emanating out of the Spirit Origin's every pore! It's almost like a purely Divine Spirit!

In fact, at this moment, it would be no exaggeration[sr]to call her a direct proxy of the sea-god himself.

You punks brought down freaking Olympus.[sr]That's huge. I couldn't ask for more worthy opponents.

And hey, I might not be your typical Greek Heroic Spirit, but it's still what I am. And if there's one thing we all know Greek heroes are about, it's revenge, ain't it?

Then as such, we are obligated to respond accordingly,[sr]even if this battle is entirely unnecessary.
