The Dream

The following message took place during a dream:

Dear Madeline,

I fear of a quarrel that is becoming rather intense. Zeus had sent a precious package with Hermes to be delivered to Hades - a gift. A gift that is very important. It was the soul reaping dagger that could bring destruction if landed in the wrong hands. However, when the package arrived at Hades' feet with Hermes, it was in ruins. The dagger was a million of tiny shards. Hermes claimed that it was I who destroyed the dagger as I refused to let him through the gate without having the parcel checked first and when he wouldn't give it up due to the special instructions from Zeus to not allow any other hands to touch it, I smashed it in a fit of anger. This story is of course, untrue. I allowed Hermes through the gate with his reek of alcohol alongside the rather ruffled parcel. I allowed him without hindrance. I fear he has lied to Hades about smashing the dagger on his own and in his fit of panic to protect his hide, he has covered himself with a story that could land me in a trial that is to happen soon. I need your help. I need you to locate the club he most likely visited, as he is occasionally seen there. It's called The Bashing Barron, located in down town New York. I do not know the coordinates and I fear my only hope is you, Madeline. Please find me evidence that it was not I who destroyed the dagger, but Hermes. Mend this disturbance between me and Hades before it leads into a full out feud. I believe in you.

-Thanatos


The Prophecy

"A gift to the lord of the dead,

Shattered into fractals of dread;

The messenger, drunk in enjoyment,

A place of leisure, where the courier went;

The secrets uncovered in a single shot,

The essences of the truth may soon be caught."

Information about Quest

Zeus gifted Hades with a very fragile and ornate dagger imbued with the power to reap souls. Zeus entrusted the dagger to Hermes and instructed him to bring it safely to Hades. On his way, he got side tracked by a very beautiful woman and ended up bringing her to the Bashing Barron where he drank and drank until he got cocky and clumsy. In his drunken stupor, the god removed the dagger from the package and begun to show it off to the other drunk members of the club. However, he dropped this dagger and it smashed on the ground. Hermes had gathered up all the pieces and shoved them into a new packaging. He desperately thought up the story of how Thanatos destroyed the item in order to save himself. He brought the item to Hades and told him all about how Thanatos destroyed it. Now Thanatos is in danger of getting into some massive trouble.

The Quest

Madeline: The girl held the determined stride of a leader as she made her way towards the entrance to camp, a black bag slung over one shoulder and her katana strapped to her back, the white hilt peeking through her long blonde hair. Her eyes skimmed below her into camp as she sought out her questors. Of course, she was the first one to arrive.

Elixabeth: Elixabeth walked slowly up to the entrance with a face of mixed apprehension and excitement. Since this appeared to be some sort of sleuthing quest, Elixabeth had decided to go light and only wore a set of light celestial bronze chain mail beneath her blue v-neck t-shirt. At first glance, she appeared to be weaponless, but keeping her hair in a ponytail was her special hair clip that could transform into her composite bow and arrows. As she spotted Madeline, she extended a friendly wave. 

Jack: Jack arrives just after the Elixabeth with a duffle on his shoulders, clanking a bit as his armor rattles around in it. His to scabbards hang from his hips. He makes his way over to the two girls and smiles at both of them.

Madeline: Madeline offered a quick smirk towards Elixabeth and Jack. "I want to thank the both of you for joining me on this quest. Now, I have come to the understanding that Bishop doesn't care much for timing but I have faith in him catching up. The taxi is waiting outside." With that, she turned briskly on the balls of her feet and made her way back camp's border and into the forest

Elixabeth:  Elixabeth raised a confused eyebrow at Madeline and then winked at Jack. "A duffel huh? Interesting choice."

Jack: Jack raises his eyebrow at her. "Uh, thanks I guess." He smiles again at her before he starts to walk after Madeline.
