"LIBRA! LIBRA?" the young woman called frantically. "We need your help! Celios, he...Heephis has him!"
ㅤㅤFor most, one's name was an attachment to their sense of self, their identity. For some otherworldly beings, however -- gods and demons in particular -- one's name had a much more powerful tie. When called with purpose, for Libra, it was a guaranteed way to draw the goddess' attention, a way to summon her forth. No matter how outstretched her focus may be, on one or many timelines, the purposeful call of her name would draw her directly to the speaker. And in the case of calling for help, the drawn attention was met with much greater haste.
ㅤㅤNo sooner had the words left the wolf's mouth that a portal forms, the smaller goddess leaping out from it.
ㅤㅤ" Heephis--? " there was so very little that she truly knew about the brothers -- only what she'd been told by Celios, himself. Heephis was a being that Celios had been watching over tirelessly, one that had caused great suffering for so many. Though it had been thought to be over with his supposed murder, recent developments had been hinting at a less fortunate truth. To have been able to get the jump on Celios, and so quickly..had Heephis been waiting for a time when his guard was down?
ㅤㅤ" How long has he been gone? Was there any trace left that could be used to track them? " If there was any evidence that he still remained within this dimension, this realm..perhaps they could still reach him before anything terrible happened. If it was a space outside of their reach, however -- similar to their domains, a realm between realms, a place outside of the reach of the timelines..then the search would become infinitely more difficult.
