BestGirl: OH EM GEE!!!! Did you see the pictures from the Wedding? All those people going up to the Parthenon. And the videos from the reception! Did you see the livestream of the reception? I have to know who was that yummy minotaur who was dancing with the Japanese lady?
RangerMiguel: The minotaur was the avatar for the Minotaur’s Labyrinth dungeon in Crete, and the lady was the goddess Ame-no-Uzume (or just Uzume, for short), the Shinto kami of Dawn and Revelry.
BestGirl: Mmm. Maybe I should schedule a trip to Crete. Think the dungeon would be interested in some ‘cultural exchange’?
Anonymous3: I swear, it was bad enough when the BookTok girlies just drooled over fictional monsters. Now that there are real life monsters for them to chase, they’re even worse.
Backpage: I can tell you that there are at least three women who volunteered (actually volunteered) for the Breeding Halls in Temptation’s dungeon, on the condition they got anything with tentacles. And another who wanted to be ravished by goblins.
Craig34: And I’ll add that certain sites have seen an increase in the number of posts featuring large dogs ever since the Hellhound and the Succubi Sisters moved into the Dark Temple floor.
Righteous: What is this world coming to?
DarkEnchanter: It was always like this. You just see it more, now, because of the internet, and more things are possible in real life, thanks to magic.
Satyr: You’re telling me. Now that people have some idea about enchanting items and resurrection magic, there’s been some WILD underground parties. Just last week, I was at a Dolcett-themed party/orgy. Hostess got spit-roasted, then spitted, and roasted, and was resurrected so that she could help eat herself.
SunnyBunz: What, like metal pole all the way through, and put her over a fire? And then she helped the guests eat her former body?
Satyr: It was a wild time, yeah.
LatinHeat: Bossman, rescue us from this topic! I heard you were one of the ones who got to see the wedding itself? What was it like? There were no pics or video of the ceremony.
RangerMiguel: For good reason. The ceremony was a ‘skyclad’ one, with everyone wearing nothing except a cloak. Including the guests.
ScoopGirl: That would explain why there was a ward around the building, keeping anyone from seeing in. I also heard that a photographer who tried to sneak a camera into the building disappeared.
ImAPally: Someone was actually stupid enough to try and slip a camera into a building where multiple deities, dungeons, and world leaders were gathering? Did they at least manage to post pics before they were disappeared?
ScoopGirl: No. Only reason anyone even knows about it is because he told some people he was going to make an attempt, but they never heard from him after he left. They checked the local hospitals, police stations, and even the morgue.
RangerMiguel: If I had to guess, I’d say the idiot wishes he was in the police station or the morgue. Kuronoth was the one who did the privacy wards. I’m no mage, but I’ve been around his magic enough to know the ‘taste’ of it.
Id10t: Which means that Contestant #1 just won himself an all-expense-paid trip to the Breeding Halls, most likely. You’d think people would have learned by now that dungeons, and dungeon gods, can see everything in a domain they set.
Domino: Well, most people live up to your user name, Id10t. Common sense is depressingly uncommon.
Bacchus: Bossman, tell us more about the reception!
RangerMiguel: Well, the reception hall was split in two parts. There was the ‘all ages’ part, and the ‘adults only’ part. A bit of magic kept any of the ‘adult’ topics or activities from filtering over to the kid section, but the adults could see over, to keep an eye on the kids. Though there were actually three gods teaming up to keep the kids entertained.
Temptation: Yes, Coyote, Loki, and the Monkey King are all great with children. Partly because they’re trickster gods, who enjoy making example of those who are too arrogant for their own good, and children are (mostly) innocent of that. And they all love to tell people about their exploits, and children love a good story. Don’t worry, they kept things as kid-friendly as possible.
Domino: So, the kids were kept distracted while the adults talked. What about?
RangerMiguel: Well, it wasn’t all talk, of course. Bacchus (the god), Susanoo, and Thor started a drinking contest. One of the self-refilling punchbowls was spiked with aphrodisiacs, which led to more fun. Though the spiked punchbowl was marked, so people knew, ahead of time.
RangerMiguel: And, yes, while it wasn’t quite an orgy, there were more than a few people who were enjoying themselves.
Temptation: Aphrodite did a very good job with the reception, yes.
Salty: How did you convince Aphrodite to plan the reception?
Temptation: My dear, once a wedding was decided on, it was all we could do to keep Aphrodite from planning the whole thing. We chose the Acropolis, because it was Athena’s main temple, and the wedding ceremony was from my church, the Bonding of Equals, if you’ve attended one of the ceremonies in Swamptown.
Crusader: Equals? That’s rare, for you.
Temptation: Because there are few who are worthy of being called my equals. Most who come to me for a deal are either supplicants, such as some of the deals I’ve made with the Guild, or those who I have forced to come to me, like Pofmis was, or when someone got caught shoplifting and didn’t want anyone to know, before the Initialization. Athena is no enemy of mine, is of power similar to mine, and is no supplicant of mine. Thus, an equal.
Temptation: Plus, I’ve read enough mythology to know what happens when someone tries to force a Greek goddess to do things she doesn’t want to do.
MightyMouse: So, what does this mean for the dungeon?
Temptation: Nothing. The dungeon continues as it always has. In fact, I believe that there are some groups who are almost in position to challenge the Raid floor.
RangerMiguel: Yes, several groups have been pushing hard. But getting enough reputation with a group to get an invitation to the Upper City is apparently a bit of a grind.
Temptation: Not a terribly arduous one, but definitely one that must be completed before you can get access to the Raid. Helps with immersion, and ensures that anyone going for the raid is invested in what happens. Plus, the tokens to automatically resurrect people at the end of the next raid aren’t cheap for me to create and fuel, even with limiting their effect to the Raid zone.
Scholar: So, there are limits on even what you can do?
Temptation: Everyone has limits, Scholar. Even dungeons and gods. My limits are just very different from yours.
ScoopGirl: Hey, Temptation, do you know anything about the pictures from LA showing the Guildmaster there chatting with a couple women while her daughter and pet hellhound played with a three-headed dog?
Temptation: Of course. Little Lucia was fearless as only children could be. She happily introduced herself to ‘Uncle Hades’ and ‘Aunt Persephone’ during the reception. Persephone promised to bring Cerberus around for a play date with Severo, the hellhound. I believe the ladies decided to make it a ‘girl’s outing’, so Catalina brought a couple women from her guild, and Persephone brought her daughter, Melinoë.
RangerMiguel: That child is either going to be a menace, or grow up to rule the world. Maybe both.
Temptation: Couldn’t be more proud.
