The return to Milliways
Sep. 30th, 2012 10:27 amIt had been a month since the oath when Thalia came across the white stag. The beast was magnificent and raised his head in challenge before running off. Artemis was away in Olympus, but the Hunters rallied to Thalia's call and they gave chase. They spread out in the classic crescent and, all too soon, Thalia outpaced her sisters. Lost in the hunt, she didn't notice when the trees changed from those native to the Appalachians to those native to Scotland. Running hard, she also didn't notice the temperature change as she was already hot. Then she broke free of the tree to see...a Tudor style tavern?
She stopped at the tree line to survey her surrounds, the stag forgotten. The tavern felt familiar, though she couldn't imagine why, and the land felt wrong. Somehow she was not in Virginia anymore. A scowl blossomed and she wondered, was this Cronus returned somehow? Off to the left she spotted a warrior's trailing ground and a stab of memory hit her; she helped build that! But that's impossible, she'd never been here before.
