[Realm of Gods.]
[Under the oak tree.]
Erebus stood with hands folded behind him, while watching the leaves dance in the wind.
"How are you doing, father?"
Erebus looked over his shoulder, seeing Nesis walking towards him, she was in a gem filled black gown, with long golden hair cascaded to her back.
"Why are you here? Shouldn't you be keeping an eye on Hades?" Erebus turned his gaze back to the tree.
Nesis pouted her lips. "Aren't you happy to see ? And pretending to being on Hades's side is irritating..." She stopped beside him, then observed her Father's side profile, then sighed sadly:
"Nothing can bring him back, Father... Lord Tartarus is gone."
Erebus heaved a sigh: "His Body is gone, but he has already chosen a Successor... Now... What news did you bring?" Erebus turned his head to his daughter.
"Well... The ritual to locate Typhon failed, because the first Lord of the Abyssal intervened... They are planning on starting all over again... Em... Father? Where is Typhon imprisoned?"
"That information is unknown, even to ; a primordial god... Typhon was once sealed in Mount Etna, but three centuries ago, he just vanished... Now his location, or prison is unknown."
Nesis nodded: "Goddess Hecate stated that "The only way to locate Typhon is if the races in all the realms get their hands stained with blood" Father, If that's true... Isn't the artifacts helping them in this goal?"
Erebus nodded: "We don't have a choice, everything cos with a disadvantage... We already know activating the artifact will lead to Hecate's theory... As you know, the others Realms can be taken over, but the first should never fall... That's why even knowing about this flew, we still went ahead and activated it."
Nesis nodded and walked towards the tree, placing her hand on it: "What about Lord Chronos?" She asked.
"He's in the castle between Chaos... And what are you doing?" A frown appeared on Erebus's face.
"We all believe she's in here, the trees of the realms, and the only passage out from our realm... Is it true that her roots are connected in each world?" She asked, feeling the coldness emanating from the tree.
"The tree of life... Yes, the roots lead to other worlds--"
"--Can I visit the First Realm? Even if it's for a day?" She turned her head to him.
"What are you saying, Nesis? You are on a mission, Leaving will only alert Hades and Gaea."
"But--"
"--No but."
Erebus cut her off.
"I an." She removed her palm from the tree, and turned around:
"I an, Can't I send a sliver of my Divinity, I'll just look around, and I'm not tied here like you guys... And besides... Eris is planning on entering the second realm, then why can't I enter the first."
Erebus growled in frustration: "Your sister is with Hades, and she's going there to destroy..."
Seeing her frown, he sighed helplessly.
"Just let her have her way, Love, she might be of help in the first Realm, and besides... One day in the Realm is equal to an hour here."
The two looked up seeing Nyx and Hera descending towards them.
"Mum, That's why I love you!!" Nesis rushed to Nyx the mont her feet touched the ground, giving her a tight hug.
"Do you know the implications to this?" Erebus asked, staring at the mother and daughter duo with dark lines on his head.
"Let her go, Lord Erebus, She might find sothing that'll help us in this war... Don't you think?" Hera asked.
"I thought you were the sensible one?"
Erebus stared at the three won in front of him, and sighed again.
"Please Dad, I won't cause any troubles... Please, Pretty please..." Nesis put on her best puppy's eyes, with pouted lips.
'How did our conversation turned to this? I should have known she ca here for a reason.' He observed his daughter.
"You are the goddess of retribution and revenge, so what ever happens, you should try and hold back your anger... Rember your strength." He said.
"Yes dear, A True god entering the first realm needs to learn how to control her powers... I trust you can do that."
"Yes Mum!"
Seeing she got her parents' approval, she kissed her Mum on her cheek, then her father, who wasn't fully on the idea.
With that done, she quickly walked towards the tree, turned around with a small smile, then walked inside, disappearing from the realm of Gods.
Erebus finally turned to the two: "What is going on?"
"Azazel is in the first Realm, We detected him an hour ago." Hera revealed.
"What?! Azazel?! The Demon of the wilderness! Are you saying Lucifer have joined Hades!!!"
The two won frowned upon hearing his high pitch voice...
"Calm down, Love... Lucifer and the other 6 Demon lords were all killed in the first war that happened in the second realm... I don't think Azazel knows about this... And the only person who could take care of a Lower god is another Lower god or higher gods..."
"But... There's another way." Hera added.
Erebus: "Sending Nesis?"
"No, there's only one person that can ta Azazel, and that's Darren."
"Darren? The Demon Lord who has the seven sins in him?"
"Do you know any other Demon lord nad Darren?" Hera asked in a displeased tone.
"But... Darren is in the second realm, there's no way he could enter the First with his current strength."
"That's why we are sending Nesis... At the mont; Azazel is taking Hades as his lord, but if he discovered Darren is alive, He'll switch side in a heartbeat.... We are doing this so he won't destroy the first realm, and Nesis will be there to see to that." Nyx stated.
"I don't understand one thing, If a Lower god is in the first Realm all these while, Why didn't he attack?"
"We are also puzzled about that... But Zeus guessed it has sothing to do with the children's blood... He's creating an army in the first realm, and Nesis will help wipe them out."
"Then why did you guys remained silent when I told her to stay? And why didn't you tell her this? At least she should know what's happening."
"Hahaha!! It seems you don't know your daughter, The mont she step foot in the realm, she'll detect him... And do the right thing, I hope."
"You Hope?!" Erebus was flabbergasted, hearing his consort. "Forget it, we'll be keeping an eye on her."
"Hmm... It has been 3 minutes now."
