Enough is Enough (tag: Artemis)
He stood on the hill, gazing up at the clouds in contempt. Olympus. His former home, as it currently stood.
Something had to be done. Enyo's current state was as unacceptable to Ares as it was to his sister. She would hardly wither away like a wilted flower while in such a state, but she did run the risk of all the things mortals had to face. He could hardly imagine her dealing with a common cold, much less having to watch her behavior and habits to keep her head attached. He tried to imagine living without any of his powers, going through the menial tasks men had been forced to perform since the beginning of their existence. That in and of itself was nearly impossible, but it became even moreso when he contemplated it from Enyo's perspective.
His father had gone too far this time. Banishment had been one thing. Ares, too, missed his temple, his horses and armory, and the close proximity to those few he actually cared about. That was something that could be repaired with time, though, for both of them. This, however...this was not something you could sit back on and wait for Zeus' temper to cool.
It would do him no good to approach their father himself. Considering Zeus' terms, Ares would likely not even be granted an audience with his high and mightiness, and even were he permitted in the temple, he would gain no ground with his father on her behalf. Considering the extremes that Zeus had gone to, it was unlikely anyone would speak for her, nor sway his position.
They needed help, that much was certain. Turning his gaze to the forest below, a smirk touched his lips briefly. There were few who would come to his call, even fewer who would be willing to aid his sister. She'd made fewer friends than enemies on Olympus, especially among their self-righteous siblings. But perhaps there was one...
"Potnia Theron, your brother, Enyalios, requests an audience...and your aid."
Ares hated asking for help. And Artemis would know it. That, in and of itself, was likely to procure an immediate response.
