Rhea’s POVFor a moment, I felt guilty for using such a tactic on the demon. Then I told myself that when the Goddess of vengeance gives visions, it would be about those who were wronged by the person. So, the demon must have seen something like the spirits of every person whom he had killed, swooping in for vengeance. Nothing to be guilty of…I stared at the demon which was still quivering in terror. With a sigh, I focused on my powers and made the hallucinations stop. The demon fell onto the floor and continued wailing. The creature was making it hard for me to stop feeling guilty. I would have felt better if it started cursing me the moment I stopped the vision. I cleared my throat, and the demon snapped its attention towards me. It stopped wailing and held still, as if I would start torturing it with the vision again. Damn it! I was feeling like the worst bully ever.I turned towards Adrian with my heart in my throat, afraid of his

 Rhea’s POVI looked at Mercy with confusion as she stared into space with a thoughtful look.“I am not sure, but I think it was because of your energy caging the demon. When the demon was pulled into the Gate, the binding was also pulled in. I think the Gate recognised the energy as a part of you and tried to pull you in too,” she said.Her words made sense, but it was painting the Gate as a sentient being.

While doing summoning and banishments, we have to draw a circle of salt to keep the evil inside it. I didn’t put up a ward or the salt circle because your cage was so powerful and I was confident that the demon couldn’t escape from it. I never considered the possibility that without the ward, you may be pulled in because of the

Rhea’s POVThe Gods looked taken aback at my sudden question. What? I knew that they didn’t come here for idle chitchat. Then why waste time acting as if it was just a friendly visit?I looked at Persephone, and Athena who looked hurt at my question. I had to admit that they looked genuinely happy to see me and didn’t seem to have any ulterior motives for visiting me. But I couldn’t say the same for the other Gods, not even my mother Nyx…It was Apollo who answered me.“As blunt as ever. I thought that losing your memories would have changed you and made you more mellow. But you seem as sharp as ever,” he remarked.I bared my teeth at him in the semblance of a smile. You have no idea, buddy…He actually flinched a little at the expression on my face and I wondered if I looked that scary. Then I wracked my brain trying to remember if I had ever read about any interaction

 Rhea's POVI stared at Mnemosyne and waited for her to answer. Even though the pain had subsided a little, I was still feeling a bit nauseous. Seeing her condition, I knew that even she was not expecting it to turn out like this. Still, she was the only one who could tell what happened because I was drawing a blank trying to figure it out on my own. One momen
