Well, I'm alright now, but I had a little encounter with the lady responsible for the riot at the retirement center. She thought she could use me to start another one at a bar. Fortunately, Nina, bless her endlessly, sensed I was in trouble and urged me to escape, which I did.
In other news, my uncle is planning to meet Nina and me in Seattle soon. Could I talk you into meeting us?
...there was a woman? Trying to incite a riot at a bar? ...oh, for fuck's sake. This had better not be what I think it is, or I am going to have to have words with my former husband.
...Arthur wants me there too? I certainly will do my best to come. Any idea when he's planning to stop by?
Not sure. He said he needs to make arrangements for his brother first, and then he will let Nina and me know. As soon as I know anything, I'll call you. Sorry it will be on such short notice.
She wasn't drunk when I first encountered her. I sensed she was related to both my dreams and the overall godling business, so I wanted to try to get some information from her. To be perfectly honest, I bought her a Scotch, neat, but she had only a little of the one drink before going wild.
And please don't think for a moment I was planning to cheat on you, dear one.
No, no, Jonah. I'm not worried about your fidelity.
One little sip, and then she went wild? Damn. I think I have an answer for you. I remember women with that kind of a description from Way Back When. Maenads. Followers of my one-time husband.
From what I recall reading about maenads, she definitely fits the description.
Of course now I'm concerned about possible retaliation, as well as attacks against my friends. Do you think there is any chance you could persuade your one-time husband to reel in his followers?
I'm not sure quite where he is these days--I haven't seen him since we were all at the hotel. But I'll see if I can get in touch with him and find out what is going on.
Was it just her? Or do you know if there are others out there?
It's far less likely for there to be only one. They used to travel in packs. They would feed off each other's energy--part of what made them so dangerous.
He seems like a good man. I realize I'm a princess of Crete, but I'd like to consider myself an ally to your band. I have little doubt my great-uncle Hades is just as pleased.
I'll check with him--see if he knows anything about these developments--in a day or two, especially if I hear back from Dionysus.
