I saw a bunch of places and there does not seem much else to do outside of that."[/color] Heath had no trouble answering that, but he did wonder what other reasons for safety and training as to why they were here. [color=#808000]"Well, from what I was told by my mother, who is Athena, we're here to train mostly. Other things have happened here, but that's the biggest reason. I was also told this place is supposed to be a sanctuary from outside threats. However, I would recommend to still be alert for that hasn't always been the case here."[/color] he said, revealing his divine parent. What he didn't add was there was internal conflict. Sure things have been quiet for a bit, but now that everyone had recovered, that might change. And with new campers in the mix, something was bound to happen. He waited for more questions and got another. [color=#9966cc]"Second question, has anything happened to camp that I should know of? Just because of the fingerprint scanner at the front gate, is that a reason this place needs security?"[/color] Heath sighed and without going into detail, told Sofia what happened. [color=#808000]"Like I said, this place was supposed to be a safe place, but a couple of battles here have happened. I've only experienced one that was a few months ago. Ever heard of Pandora's box? Well, it's real, but instead of plagues, we got attacked by beasts and monsters of all kind. One of us managed to close the box, which made everything vanish, but a lot of us got hurt or worse. A few ended up leaving after that. There was a lot of destruction and we only finished rebuilding the other day. The gate and fingerprinting were new editions as a result of this latest battle."[/color] He hoped what he said didn't scare Sofia too much. But she did ask, so he wouldn't lie to her. Her demeanor seemed to change for her last question. Sofia was acting all nervous as she started to talk, but then she paused. Heath patiently waited and finally got the last question. [color=#9966cc]"How are Hades's kids treated here if there are any here?"[/color] It didn't take that long for Heath to connect the dots. Sofia was Hades's daughter. Why else would she ask that kind of question? Heath made an effort to be kind since it seemed Sofia feared being judged like that. [color=#808000]"I can't speak for everyone, but I doubt anyone here is judged by who their parents are. I myself never have. I judge by someone's acts. Mason, who is Hades's son, is respected here because of his actions."[/color] Heath tried to avoid gossiping, so he kept it brief. Hopefully though what he said would alleviate some of Sofia's concerns. [color=#808000]"I hope this helps. Welcome to Camp Athens, daughter of Hades. I think you'll do fine here, just try to keep the peace okay?"[/color] he said with a smile, making his demeanor more approachable.

Nelly knew she was a loquacious person and wasn't going to apologize for that, but she would try to tone it down in the future when it came to this guy. Still he managed. As social as Nelly was, she didn't get the kind of regular interactions the average person did due to her upbringing. Sure she was an experienced travel and could adapt to different cultures, but when it came to regular conversations, she always had issues. A part of it wondered if it was because she was half God. One of the things she wondered was would she live longer than the average human. Her father always looked young, but she wasn't bound to guess what his real age was. When Elysium mentioned the things he couldn't do, Nelly merely nodded. [color=#f1724b]"Hey it's fine. I may have some of my father's abilities, but there's no way I am at his level. The last time I saw him, he actually raced me because I wanted to test myself. I thought I was fine at 100 mph, but my dad instantly went faster than that. Plus my endurance is not great. I need to work on that while I am here. Haven't had time to do that yet."[/color] Seeing him approve of his cabin and mentioning he was going to be a bit busy until tonight's party. Nelly nodded. She had no plans of sticking around. Still she was glad she could help and meet Elysium. [color=#f1724b]"Well, enjoy your new home then, Elysium! I'll see you tonight!"[/color] She put on her boots again. Turning to Elysium, she gives him a peace sign before suddenly vanishing in front of him as she teleported right outside of his cabin. She wished she saw his expression for that. She figured to remind him that he wasn't in the world of mortals anymore. As she started walking through the snow again, she wondered if Fiona was up yet. The two had gotten closer since the Pandora's Box incident. It felt weird to have a friend here. It was something Nelly wasn't expecting when she came here, but certainly not unwelcomed. Deciding to see if she was up, Nelly raced a bit but stopped when she realized she still needed an actual breakfast. The food Elysium gave her was good, but since she had been using her powers, her metabolism kicked in and she really needed good food in her. Groaning, she headed for the Main Hall. There were still people here. Getting plenty to eat, she looked around and just sat by herself. [hr] [center]Interactions ~ Elysium [@The Savant] ~ Mentions ~ Fiona[/center]
