4. Hiccup Event: Disney Princess. Animals just won't leave you alone!

One of the unquiet dead... My condolences.

I do not know the rites of which you speak, but I would hope that any God who bid you to honor them thus will understand that you currently lack the means by which to do so.

Though were it one of my mortal worshippers, I would ask for other sacrifices, as appropriate. Returning gemstones to the earth or a burning of incense is a customary sign of fealty to me, but such would insult my cousins and brothers on high Olympos, so consult your scriptures.

Thank you. It's something I've had to get used to.

Animal sacrifices ended with the destruction of the Temple, so that one's out... Maybe giving charity would work?

[atleastimnotzeus_boy]

And a people without a temple...

It is good that charity to the less fortunate is pleasing to your God. Would that my own brothers atop the mountain were so magnanimous.

[accidentallich]

I'm sure they have their good points too... Otherwise I don't see why anyone would worship them?

[atleastimnotzeus_boy]

Hmn.

My relationship with those who dwell on Mount Olympus is fraught. I do not wish them ill. In fact, I hope for them to have a happy and long immortality, far away from me.

If you have ever had your extended family along for a feast day, I'm sure you understand.

[accidentallich]

I'll take your word for it.

[He barely remembers his immediate family.]

I'm sorry, I don't know how to talk to a god... Should I be more formal?

[atleastimnotzeus_boy]

Bless you. If I am angry with you, you should know.

Address me as Lord Hades, and do not try to take what is mine, and we shall have no quarrel.

[accidentallich]

Thank you, Lord Hades. I try not to be a bother, so it should be fine, I think.

As long as my existence as an undead abomination doesn't offend you? It wasn't my idea.

[atleastimnotzeus_boy]

You retain reason and speech, and are far more pleasant to speak to than some members of my family. Your being a creature of bone rather than of flesh and blood means little to me, other than my curiosity of how you reached such a state.

May I have your name, so I may place you in my mind among the honored dead?

[accidentallich]

It's Gershom. And thank you. That's the nicest thing anyone's ever said to me.

I was tricked into drinking a potion, a very long time ago. I don't know what was in it and I don't really want to know.
