I sighed as i watched Duncan comfort Kalonice. I sighed again once the oracle of delphi told me what happend to her. poor girl was denied rather harshly by daimen. She pushed away Duncan and ran away crying again. ç áãÜðç åßíáé ìéá óêýëá i mused to myself. "so is aphrodite, playing with peoples hearts like that" Seeing my son looking quite destressed i gave him a quick telapathic message. "I'll look after her"
[Im a god i can do that. If you dont like it you can kiss my holy---]

~ ~ ~ Duncan's heart fell as he watched Kalonice walk away. He sighed. Wasn't the first time someone wouldn't talk to him, but it hurt all the same. He thought that Kalonice was his friend...Duncan stopped in his tracks. A thought burst into his mind -- no, a message. And he wasn't sure how, but he knew it was from his dad. The guy that hadn't talked to him his whole life. I'll look after her. Duncan's knees wobbled, buckling under his weight. He held his head in his hands. Who? His sister, Lynn? Kalonice? Zoey? The weight of it all seemed to be balancing on his shoulders -- a burden heavier than he had ever carried before.

Zoey chewed on a blade of grass absently, then realized how disgusting that was and crushed it into oblivion. She wiped the grass stains onto her pants, not really caring about her jeans. Zoey watched the whole scene with Duncan and whats-her-face. She had seen her around the camp, but had never really talked. Zoey sat up when what's-her-face pushed Duncan away. Duncan seemed to crumple under some pressure. Zoey was up in a flash. She walked over to him and placed a hand on his shoulder. Yo, you okay? She asked. What was that all about?

~ ~ ~ Duncan saw Zoey, and heard her talk. But it was like he was watching a movie. He felt far away, drifting around in his mind. The phrase repeated over and over again in his head. I'll look after her...I'll look after her... Then, as suddenly as it came, the thought was gone. Vanished out of his mind. But the meaning still lingered. Duncan snapped back to reality. He looked up at Zoey, his face bright red. "Uh...yeah. I think so." He got up, his knees still shaky. "I think...I think my dad just tried to -- to talk to me." He stuttered, still having trouble wrapping his mind around it. Why now? Why now, out of all the times he had needed him most? Duncan turned his attention back to Zoey. "Kalonice...I think it's Damien. But...I don't really understand." He knew he was talking more to himself, but Duncan had to figure this out. "One minute, they're best friends. Then the next, after Damien gets back from his quest, She's in love with him." Duncan shook his head, staring up at the blue sky. He turned back to Zoey. "Sorry...I bet I sound like a nut-job right now."

No, you only sound like a crackhe - I mean, of course you don't. But no, seriously, what are you talking about? Zoey said. She wasn't going to pushy though - if the guy didn't want to talk about it, she would back off no biggie. I have lots of experience backing off, considering my dad doesn't wanna talk about anything. He just falls silent when I ask him something and I back off.
