Grandfather dearest is playing a game with us. Everything has gone topsy-turvy, which I must say, I am rather partial too! It makes life so much more exciting and don't be so down my dear, in time we will have our divine powers back.
It's quite easy for you to think so, isn't it? I'd prefer to be able to leave this place and have my freedom. Our grandfather can't expect us to enjoy this "game" upon which the odds are so unfairly set.
I don't think this game is meant to be for our amusement, which is why the odds are stacked a little more in our favor when we are amused! I am sure this too will pass like the black out so enjoy it while you can. I'll come and play with you if you'd like.
I can assure you, my idea of "play" is a far cry from yours. And it's hardly easy to be amused when my only desire upon arrival here is to find my room.
Black out? I can assume this is neither the first nor last game dear Cronus insists on "playing"?
I'm afraid you've walked into the middle of a prank on Chronos' behalf. He's rearranged the complex that we've been forced to live in, as if the shame of being cast down here weren't humiliation enough. Distraction tactics, all, to keep us from finding a way back home, I am certain.
Finally, a voice of reason amongst this madness. It's good to see you, Athena, as much as I may regret you also have been made part of this.
As if snatching away our powers and rights aren't enough for him, he has to do this too? Also, I can't fathom the idea of waiting in this lobby until his game is complete. How long have you been subject to this?
It's been almost a week now. I've found it best to remain in my apartment, where at least I have access to food, and communication with everyone.
You can try to randomly hop about; some have been doing that with a notable degree of success, though I imagine you will have to steel yourself against inevitable frustration.
A week is blink of an eye among the gods, yet it lay before a mortal like an eternal pathway.
I don't know if I care to seek an unsteady seclusion in my room while this is happening. I would not wish to happen upon anyone in a... Private situation. No more than I would wish them to happen upon me.
I wish I could say I was happy to be here. I suppose all of this can be seen as good from your point of view. I, however, feel rather at a disadvantage.
And I certainly have no intention of feeling at home. I hardly plan to remain her long enough, and I am sure my family most agrees with me on that count.
Wow! You write like a storybook! It's really pretty.
Oh. Right! Cronus made the rooms all wrong. But they aren't all the time. Daddy says they'll work again eventually.
I'm not allowed to go anywhere. Because I might get lost. Or something. But if you walk around enough you can sort of get places. It just takes a while. Most of the doors are lying. So you kind of have to guess a lot.
I certainly hope your father is correct; it must be as angering for you as it is I being trapped within this maze. Don't you think it would be better if we were allowed outside to play?
But it's best for you, child, to stay put until this madness has ended. While I am usually one to support the travel of the untrodden path, this seems to take that to an extreme I am not even comfortable with. You should heed your father's wishes. There are many to steer clear of in this place, as I have already discovered.
I hadn't yet given thought to food. I hope I find some soon as well.
I have faith that Cronus' game will soon end. I suppose it's something that I am allowed this... Thing I was given in order to communicate with others here until then.

It may be best to stay put for now.

How did you come to be here?

Same as everyone else. Snatched by Cronus several months ago. Times flies quickly, you'll be at home in no time.

It's okay. The food here is pretty good. After you find it. I hope you can find some. So I don't really mind too much. Especially if gets better soon.
I really hope it gets better soon.
