Seeing that Yael was doing just fine, Abriella moved along the table, stopping before the beautiful Nephilim who resembled her sister so much that some often got them confused.  “Phaedra, it is said that you and Yael are very close as sisters and resemble each other in a plethora of ways, so it seems only fitting that you would be similar in that you are both going to have two guides to help you here in Imperium.  In her case it was their decision to work together to uniquely help her, each  in their own unique way.  In your case, the situation is slightly different. I honestly could not decide which of them would be better suited to help you, as they are so similar in personality to one another, and how I believed they would mesh with you.  Although others would disagree with this, I think that them working together is a fabulous idea, and when I discussed this with them, well they loved the idea as well.”  Brie chuckled and shook her head.  Deacon’s head dropped and he shook it as well, a groanish laugh escaping him.  Yael looked concerned about what was going on until he leaned over and whispered something in her ear, something that made her giggle. “I believe that both Thinius and Dez will be excellent in helping you discern the direction that you should be taking in the future now that you have left the angelic legion as a warrior.  Be careful, Thinius might try to recruit you for our own, which you are always welcome to join.” There was a bit of tease in Abriella’s voice as she winked at Pheadra.  She was half serious, but she had a feeling that Pheadra would be better suited for some other rolls she had discussed with both the males that would be helping her get situated in Imperium.  “Dez is also needing some help in discerning the direction that he should be taking, as he was given a role by The Source which has at times quite frustrated him and left him not sure of his place in things.  You are both starting new chapters in your life, so you will have that in common to help one another with.  I believe that you’ll both have had unique experiences that will assist you in guiding  one another as you move forward, and being supportive of the bumps that may come.  So again, like your sister, you and one of your guides will be helping each other with fresh starts.  I also think these are just the males to handle that perkiness of yours, and possibly go along with it in ways that some here may wish they didn’t.  Just do not drive everyone else too insane with the perkiness.”  Now Brie laughed outright as she gave Pheadra a cheeky wink, as did many at the table, Phaedra included who blushed.

Dez had been waiting for this; when he heard Abriella star talking to Pheadra, he’d started bouncing on his toes.  Since she had mentioned the spunky little Nephilim coming to live in Imperium he’d been looking forward to finally meeting her.  This was his do-over for what happened when Brie had come to live with them in the Nephilim Sanctuary in Chicago.  That was when he and Talon had fucked everything up due to stupid jealousy that led to a major and brutal fight.  It had been that fight that had caused so much upset and heartache in the end, for more than just Abriella.  Now he had a chance to do more, and to help healing instead of causing upset.  He and Thinnius were gonna slay this shit and have too much fun doin it with a chick that sounded cool as fuck to boot.  For him though, this was so much more and he’d even talked to Div about it, making promises that this time, this time he was going to get it right. Unlike Leandre and Deacon, neither Dez nor Thinius were in suits.  Unlike Thanases, they weren’t in their leathers either.  No, neither of those fit their personalities too much.  The boys were in hoodies and jeans when they came out of the side room together with cocky swaggers.  Both of them were grinning like fools and looked just as excited as they were.  Yes, they were gonna help Phaedra get settled in Imperium, but they were also going to have fun.  Abriella had said they were going to be three peas in a pod, and that is exactly what they were expecting to happen.  .

One plopped down on each side of her, no grand introduction or anything. No bowing or greeting her like a visiting dignitary.  “He’s Thinnius.  Don’t call him T, that’s Talon that you’ll meet in a minute, call him that and then everyone gets confused.  I call him Blondey or Chaos.”  Dez grinned.  “I’m Dez.  You’re gonna love me.  I know it.  You’re gonna love him too, just not as much.”

For a minute she didn’t know what to say and then Phaedra just broke out laughing.  She liked them already.  Thinius was grinning and Dez was a hoot.  Abriella had picked them perfectly.  She could feel the energy radiating off of them and they were PERFECT to help her feel at home.  Seeing Yael steadily relaxing between the two men on either side of her, who were both touching her (something she never thought would happen), just made it even better.  “Chaos and Mr. Cocky.  Got it.”  Phaedra grinned as she looked between them with a mischievous smirk and twinkle in her eye that matched, which caused them both to laugh.  Yes, this was going to be awesome!

Hippolytus as a play is comedic almost in how unserious these people are. just completely unfunctional. It's literally like

Hippolytus: I think Aphrodite is a stupid slut goddess surely there will be no repercussions of me saying this

....

Phaedra, the repercussion: Oh my husband I'm so sorry if only you never fucked that Amazon

Nurse: Tell me what ails you what of the amazons surely you don't mean you lust for your step son Hipploytus

Phaedra: You said his name not I. Now don't speak a word of this

...

Nurse, immediately: Hippolytus ! Your step mom wants to bang !

Hippolytus: *Incel Anthem* I hate women if only none of you existed and I could live with a man in peace because all women are conniving sluts

....

Nurse: Hey boss so... about that secret

Phaedra: Great thanks nurse now I have to kill myself

...

Theseus coming home: Hey why so sad did someone die? Is it my grandpa he was old as shit but I would miss him. Oh don't tell me my babies. MY WIFE??? Hippolytus did WHAT? My fatal flaw is that I will literally believe anything anyone tells me I am the most gullible man in Greece so I'm going to roll with this

Hippolytus: Hey pops what up oh holy shit I just saw Phaedra what happened to her

Theseus: You know what you did !!

Hippolytus: UM I did not if only the walls could talk

Theseus currently using his wife's corpse as a witness: You sure do enjoy calling upon witnesses who can't speak. Fuck off you're disowned little freak

Hippolytus: ooh my own father hates me what despair

Theseus with absolutely zero chill: Poseidon please kill my son for me xoxo

Artemis showing up with Hippolytus half dead corpse: Hey dumbass Aphrodite cursed your wife and she was lying. Your son was innocent too late now hug him close and say goodbye. I can't watch him die so... bye

Theseus: Oh god oh fuck oh fuck

Hippolytus: Forgive you Dad goodbyeeee

The sun shone down on the wide plain of grass that spread out in front of her at the forest’s edge. Wind tousled the long blades, and if it weren’t for the burning stench that assaulted her nose, the dead silence might have been peaceful. She had been too late to do anything but bury or burn the dead, yet she searched in vain for any survivors, discovering final hiding places, last stands, and cruel reminders of the Enemy’s merciless slaughter. Cruel iron weapons were scattered about, but the number of orc bodies was far outweighed by the number of men, women, and children. The crops had been carelessly cut down and the fields burned of what remained, which would leave the land barren for years to come.  It had been the third village that month, but it was no less disheartening to pick up the pieces. What use was it for her to patrol if she would be a step behind the Enemy at every turn? She was meant to continue to the north, but the vast swath of trampled grass led west. In an uncharacteristic decision of defiance, she turned her course to pursue them, hoping she might at least thin their numbers, and at best, prevent the same tragedy from befalling other simple folk.

Saelind, which is Sindarin for Wise Heart, became Pheadra’s companion many years ago and has proved herself an intelligent, hardy, but nimble creature. She has carried Pheadra across Middle Earth, and even seems to have an understanding of language at times that seems too uncanny to be a coincidence.
