01 Flight ☁ Straight from Mount Olympus ☁ [Video/Action for Traverse Town]

[When the feed starts the first thing that’s visible is the moogles paws. The little creature was trying to hand it to the latest arrival and wasn’t having much luck with it yet.]

Dig this crazy architecture, babe. Is this one of Hestia’s projects?

[The moogle shoved the communicator toward the arrival once more, this time its paws slipped off the lens revealing it’s recipient.. And what a peculiar looking arrival it was. His skin was blue in color, his hair which was mostly covered by a winged helmet was a darker blue, he wore winged sandals, sunglasses, and a toga.]

Funny, she didn’t mention this at the last meeting.

[Hermes zipped about looking everything over, while the moogle tried to keep up on the ground. It had been trying to explain the situation but as of yet hadn’t managed to get a word in edgewise. Finally, Hermes returned and hovered before the moogle.]

You don’t understand! You’re world has been swallowed by darkness, kupo. That is why you’re here.

My world? You mean Mount Olympus, Ha! That’s just too nutty. What a wild imagination, Just wild!

[Eventually he did accept the items but he was still doubtful about the moogles words having just come from there himself.]

[The way you talk is weird, at least that's what Allen thinks.]

You must be in Traverse Town.

Traverse Town? [He thinks about it for a moment, then shakes his head]

Never heard of the place, is it closer to Mykanae or Athens?

I don't think it's either, or at least I've never heard anyone mention those names around there.

You don't say.

[Hermes continued to flit about, until he took roost on one of the highest roofs in the area]

So what do you all do for fun around here?

I don't know myself. I never really looked after the heartless invasion.

The heartless invasion? Crazy name for a band, what style of music do they play?

[He really doesn't understand you man.]

I don't think that's what I meant.

Well if you don't know, I can't tell you, babe.

[He's just going to sit here and be really confused.]

I know heartless are something that people say comes from the Darkness.

[The confusion is mutual, but in different amounts]

Ah now I'm catching your vibe. This is some kind of philosophical question.

[Looks thoughtful for a moment]

I... don't know.

[Smart things are not Allen's area of expertises.]

Ah, sorry I didn't introduce myself. My name's Allen Walker.

Allen Walker, hmm?

I'm Hermes, Greek God, maybe you've heard of me?

[ive him moment or two to think about it, he never did go to school so learning things such as this might not have happened.]

Well... I don't think I know a name like that, sorry.

Isn't that just too nutty?

What about Trivia? Though everyone forgets about him as it is.. [Pauses a moment] Hera? Zues?

Ah, no sorry. I don't know any of those names, I don't think I needed to, or I just never learnt them. Though I think by going to school I might though.

Not even Zues? [Wow, he's a little flabbergasted at that]

Babe, you really need to get out more. [How do you miss all those temples in the Gods honor?]

Mount Olympus swallowed in an eternal world of darkness... a pity, isn't it?

[No Hera, no Poseidon, and most importantly NO ZEUS! Hades was getting used to being the only God around. ]

Just passing through? You must be very busy and all, God duties that need attending to? I can make sure you get back to Mount Olympus right away, just bring up a little door into the darkness and boom! Right back where you came from!

Hades, Babe, you haven't lost that nutty sense of humor.

[Olympus, swallowed up? Ha, so Kookie. As if the Pantheon would just stand by and let something like that happen.]

Say, what's your rush anyway?

Not MY rush, YOUR rush. Hey, who's the one always flitting around all the time, am I right?
You probably have a meeting, papers to push, something!

[Go away! We don't need any more Gods here. :P]

I'm just trying to show you the way back before you end up being late!

[Hermes consults a scroll as he flies backwards]

Nn, The meeting adjourned early and there isn't another one scheduled until later. .. But you should know that. You were there.

[He adjusted his sunglasses before looking back at the scroll]

I'm free as a bird.

Hades, babe, if I can't find Olympus by now then I'm too far gone.

Too far gone... That's one way of putting it...

So, how's the Underworld treating you? Still as lively as ever?

Yeah, well, you know, people die, their souls arrive here, it's business as usual except for the heartless.

Those heartless cats, again? They must be real popular.

Oh yeah! They are a blast at parties... You should have arrived sooner you missed the biggest shindig we had around here!

[Then again, would a heartless who stole an immortal heart therefore become immortal itself?
That... could be a problem... ]

[Hermes? Mixed the hottest party of te year? How does that even happen?]

Unreal! [Shakes his head] This... uh.. wasn't on the same level as that pool party of yours, was it? [Because if it was, he's glad to have missed it]

What are you saying about my parties...?

Hades, babe, lets face it those parties of yours... [Tries to avoid being harsh here] aren't exactly the most.. [What's the word for it]

.. Well they can't compare with Bacchus's shindigs, but whose can, right?

[And frown. ]

We can't all be the God of wine and parties... especially when sober...
Besides, its a little more difficult when guest list is filled with stiffs, ya know what I'm sayin'? I mean come on, things aren't exactly lively down here!

Ain't it the truth. No one can be Bacchus but Bacchus.

[Relax, Hades. Don't get your toga in a twist. ] Hey look at it this way, at least you can save a bundle in catering.

Mount Olympus? But... isn't that part of Olympus Coliseum?

[Sure, no one's been able to get there considering it's just for the gods and all, but Leon just assumed it was still there. He also doesn't get out much, so who knows!]

Now here's a cat that's at least heard of the place.

[He consults a scroll for a moment.]

Leon, is it? [Of course it is, he lets the scroll roll itself up, and poof out of view] .. but Mount Olympus is up here [He motioned upwards with one hand] and Olympus Coliseum is down here. [His other hand drooped lower] They aren't exactly the same thing, babe.

[He just gives a nod at the name, thankful people have caught on and aren't calling him 'Squall' anymore.]

Guess that makes sense... [He frowns, sympathetic.] Sorry you lost your home. It's a little worrying if the home of the gods can even be lost...

[Hermes still isn't sure that it has been lost. Sure the moogle said that but it hasn't really set in yet]

Lost? Why does everyone keep saying that. Hmm, I guess it couldn't hurt to go back and check on the place.

If you wake up in Traverse Town, your home's generally been taken from you. That's where all newcomers arrive.

Better check on it, then.

Home's generally don't just up and disappear.. unless the populace upset Poisedon or something similar. Ethiopia nearly found that out the hard way.

What exactly is taking these worlds?

Another god, is it? [Vergil sounds far from impressed.]

You got it, babe.

Hermes, I presume. [The winged helmet and sandals couldn't be anyone else.]

Has Mount Olympus truly been swallowed by darkness?

The one and only! [He announced, flying past the camera once to make his point]

That's what I've been told. [He's still not sure he believes it] ... but considering that mortals can't travel there... the information could be wildly inaccurate.

In that case, why not travel there and see for yourself?
