I have a secret to tell, from my electrical well....
The sculpture was coming along beautifully, but was resulting in Corey's keeping odd hours. It was around three a.m. when he stumbled to the kitchen to fix himself some chili-cocoa. He soon noticed he wasn't alone.

"Harmony? What's wrong?"

"I don't know how these things are supposed to work; I'm a Nova Roman traditionalist. You don't go to Tartaros because you feel bad about something; you go 'cause you're a traitor and the gods are pissed off at you for being a traitor. But Mephisto managed to get his hands on you just because you felt bad about your relationship or something? I don't know."

Harmony rubbed her face.

"In Christianity worshiping someone other than God Himself is a damnable offense. My priest considered my relationship with Argo to be my worshiping him and therefore a sin in the eyes of God."

"Oh. Okay. So, well...that happened. And we went in and got you out. And so...you were all healthy and all, but you forgot about dying, and Andy said not to upset you and Argo agreed."

"They decided not to tell me about what had happened to me so as not to upset me? Has someone never explained to those two that secrets have a way of coming out?"

She sighed.

"So I'm not dreaming. I'm remembering."

"It was only that day. Mostly, we were just trying to make it through the hordes of monsters... oh gods, when Andy found out Argo hadn't even gotten a map... ended up. So he started working on...negotiating. If Mephisto and Pluto have called in those promises, I haven't heard, so almost definitely not, in Argo's case. The place was so disgusting, and the rocks... the rocks were sick.. I didn't think I'd ever find more disgusting soil than that one time fighting interdimensional slavers, but... oh gods, the place was just wrong all over."

"Yeah, that sounds about like it."

She shudders.

"They were hoping the forgetting was, you know, complete, and you'd never have to worry about it." Corey sighs. "Y'know, until they ended up disappearing for some reason."

"That's kind of ridiculous and really not very well-considered of them. I appreciate their concern but...this is something Argo really should have told me." She paused. "What happened to Sheena?"

"I was thinking smiting, actually." She smiles a little. "Unlike me, I know."
