❦ 001 ❦ Hermione Granger : VIDEO :: Traverse Town

Please, I'm fine. You don't have to do this, really.

[The feed turns on to a nameless street where a new face stood leaning against the wall trying to hide her arm from two floating moogle's. They seemed to have spotted one of many injuries on her person and had been following her with a potion and some bandages. Hermione was reluctant to accept anything at the moment.]

Do understand, I'm fine. I can manage.

You're bleeding, Kupo! We're here to help!

That's very kind of you but-

Our potion's will help you!

A-Ah, well, all right. [And she reached a shaky hand to accept the potion but she didn't drink. Not yet.]

Can you tell me if a boy by the name of [Was it safe to say the real name?] Harry Potter arrived? He's a friend and I really need to find him.

No the fake river Styx ride at the 'It's all Greece' theme park...

Yes the actual river Styx. What? Do you really think the Lord of the Underworld would be talking about any other river Styx?

I-I'm sorry-

[Oh god, this is Hades?]

Impossible. But you're a God and- [Was she injured this badly?] I swear I'm fine. I'm not too injured. [Just so he doesn't get any ideas...]

Hey, some one from Earth who actually knows who I am! You wouldn't believe how many people can't seem to work that one out.

I find that hard to believe. Greek Mytho- [Oh, well, if he's talking then it's not a myth anymore, is it?] Greek Legends are taught rather widely.

Maybe they skipped class on that day.

[That... makes her smile a little.]

I'm Hermione. Hermione Granger. It's a pleasure, Lord of the Dead.

[A pleasure? Well then! ]

Hades. Not that Lord of the Dead doesn't have a nice ring to it but it is a little long.

Of course, Hades then.

I've never met a god before, it's fascinating! I'm sorry I'm not in the best of states.

Fascinating? Well, yeah... of course for a mortal it would be.

What happened to you anyway? Did you run into a flock of harpies or what?

No.

[And she pauses. Is it okay to talk about it? Well, he's a god, right?]

I was tortured.

Tortured? What kind of mission did you mess up to have your boss punish you like that?

[Minion toasting? He does it all the time. ]

No, I'm not working under anyone, my Lord. You see, there is a war where I come from and we were in the middle of it. Our enemies are hunting us because- well, we know how to defeat our adversary and that's clearly enough to have us killed.

They captured us, however. They tortured me for information.

Ah, a war. You mortals are always fighting over something.

[Gods are SO above that... not really. ]

So your side is losing? That's the breaks. Maybe you should try beseeching a God for a bit of divine intervention.

That wouldn't be fair. I'm sure you mean well, my Lord but... [No. She doesn't trust you.] We'll manage.

They are torturing people and you are worried about fairness? I guarantee the other side wouldn't give it a second thought.

Just because the other side has forgotten morality and ethics doesn't mean I should. We're trying to fight for a new world, what's the point of winning if we cheated?

Hey, it is your war... fight it or loose it however you want, it's all the same to me.

[Hades is not the God of War so he really doesn't worry much about mortal affairs like this. He only likes how many souls wars bring him!]

Not that it matters here anyway. Your world and your war would both be trapped in the darkness.

I'm well aware. Believe me.
