Welcome to Gaia! ::

"I can't believe we're doing this."Thanatos said, flapping his wings up higher. They were exiting the Underworld to go see the island of Naxos, Dionysus. They weren't so happy about it, but it was better than babysitting that maniac, Hades. Persephone sort of locked herself up in her garden. Hypnos shrugged, flying up beside him. "Feels sort of weird to escape that place."he told his brother, allowing the shrill cold fall wind blast at him. "Ah, that's the ticket. When's Boreas coming again?"Thanatos asked, and flew up with the current. Exiting the underworld, they flew over the oceans, staring down at the cities. Thanatos loved visiting them, touching mortals then killing them. He wasn't morbid, but he was the god of death. "So, Naxos. I wonder what it will be like, visiting the drunkard."the sleep god asked. "He'll like you, though."Thanatos whispered, and flew down to touch the water, creating a dense fog around the two gods. "Why?"Hypnos asked him. "You married his daughter, right?"Thanatos asked him back, rendering the god silent. They flew for a few more minutes, until the island of Naxos came into view. They landed, folded their wings, and looked around. A fair, slim maiden walked up. She looked much like Persephone during the summer. She wore a beautiful smile. "Dionysus has been expecting you. He's in a meeting with some crazed Manaeds at the moment, but he'll soon be done."she said. "Come to the castle, I am Ariadne." She turned around and started to walk. The two gods shrugged, and followed.

Shrugs. I'd be fine with a thread and a piece in the archives. The story will hopefully be done soon, I just have to post as Dionysus checking up on him, the meeting on Olympus, Persephone's final thing she can possibly do to render him normal again, and then the end!

I'm fine, thank you.

(Yay, it's in the archives!)

A day later, the god of wine exited to the front of the castle where the sleepy god of sleep was looking drowsily at a vine that was growing. Odd, it's fall and it isn't dieing, yet.he thought, but looked up as the cheery god smiled at the two Underworld ones. "Ariadne said you were here. Come in, there is wine and ambrosia waiting for you two!"he said, and led the two to a large room filled with Manaeds, carrying thyrsos, and purple cushions. A table sat in the middle, with a throne made of intertwined vines and grapes sitting on one end, two small chairs that looked like foot stools on the other. Dionysus sat in his throne, and awaited for the two minor gods to speak. "Hades has gone insane."Thanatos said, hoping that wouldn't lead to much discussion. "What made him mad, then?"Dionysus asked, taking a goblet of wine and taking a few sips, before eating a grape from his throne, which grew back. "Ice sculpting, it's sort of become an obsessive hobby."Hypnos said, taking a small piece of ambrosia. "Hypnos! How is my daughter, Pasithea?"he asked. Thanatos shot Hypnos a confused look. "Good, she's been a ghastly wife..."he answered. "But we need to see what we can do to make Hades sane once more."he said, bringing him back to the point. "Well, I can't really do much. He's a higher up god than me, I need permission from Olympus. We'll have a meeting, and then I'll see what I can do."he said, and clapped his hands. Ariadne appeared, catching a few stares by the Manaeds, and brought them back to the beaches of Naxos. "I will send Hermes to tell you the answer of the Olympus' counsel. Hopefully he can keep his place til then."she said, and handed them a goblet of wine before allowing them fly off. "That didn't really help us much. I hate these rules, sometimes."the god of death said, headed back to Atlas and then after the Underworld. "If only we could quit our jobs..."Hypnos said, and sighed. They flew past the mountains, before appearing at the doors of hell. "The Maiden's going to love this news."he said, and walked through, feeding Cerberus some cake as they walked by.

It has a ring to it. Is that the final title?
