[Video / Underworld Action ]

Ok, I get it, I do, went a little too far with the ‘taking over worlds’ thing…

[At first one can only hear Hades voice and see the dark and gloomy interior of the Underworld. ]

So Dante, come on, let’s talk this over a bit.

[There is a clank of chain as whomever is using the recording device tries to figure out how to move the camera. There is even a brief glimpse of an eyeball as the creature looks inside the lens to see if the thing is working. ]

We’re both reasonable people here, well, not people per se but… we can work this out. What do you want? There must be something… help finding some one, success in your business… Oh! A new jacket?

[And there the camera finally focuses on Hades who appears to have been chained to his throne in the Underworld. Now for those who know their Greek mythology they should recognize the golden chains that even a God can’t break. Dante and his team successfully managed to put Hades out of commission for a while. ]

Come on, let’s talk, what do you say?

I can only imagine. I do believe in respecting the Gods but, you really didn't give us much of a choice.

There are always choices... you could have surrendered peacefully but you chose this route. Better hope that I am in a forgiving mood when I finally do get freed from here.

Are you capable of forgiving with a wounded pride, Lord?

[Yeah... it's probably only Zeus who couldn't be forgiven. He was the one who trapped his own brother in this Underworld job, with no perks, and limited access to Mount Olympus... AND NO APOLOGIES!]

Why would I? It's not like you mortals have done anything worthy of forgiveness...

Your dislike towards way farther back in time before we, the mortals from other dimensions, arrived. It's not very fair you put your fury on us. When you and your partner attacked, you attacked the innocent.

Yeah, yeah, save the lecture. Taking over that world was just a means to an end, it didn't work out... so now I will have to come up with something else.

Shouldn't you be highly more concerned with Olympus and your brother than with other worlds?

Help an ally gain a world then they will owe you one later...

[Hades had been trying to establish some alliances in order to do just that actually. ]

You're not a very good ally then, are you?

What do you mean 'not good'? I'm the best! I got her the world she was wanting... I can't help that she ended up botching the whole deal. I can handle this whole 'dead' situation for her too, eh, what more do you want? Mortals... they just want everything handed to them...

You would bring her back?

[Hades shrugs.]

Eh, why not? If I don't she will just float around here in the Underworld and bother me with her snarky teenage girl comments...

You certainly are... different. [From what she's read. Not sure how she feels about this, it makes a God unpredictable.]

Different... different as in 'new and interesting' or different as in 'ew, how disgusting, what did they put in this baklava?'
Different can mean a few well... 'different' things.

I'm not sure. Truth be told I was very fascinated by the prospect of getting to know the Lord of the Dead. And then this. Now I'll never see the river Styx myself.

Don't worry you'll still have one chance to see it...

What're you complaining about anyway? You want to do some sight seeing, then do some sight seeing, just let me know before you come cause, heh, if some one doesn't feed the dog he'll find his own meal if you know what I mean.

Why is that? One chance before you make another horrible scheme to take over again?

I mean everyone dies eventually, so your one chance to see it might be when you die... unless you can forget about that little incident and move on. I mean, come on, one joke...

[Taking over the Castle was never a 'joke' but he got caught and is now trying to backpedal. ]

One 'joke'. We'll see, Lord.
