>>5521373Before you can figure out what to do with the newly vanquished demigods, you’re suddenly blinded by an intense crack of lightning that leaves you rubbing at your eyes for a few minutes until the spots clear.
When your vision fully returns, you discover that both of your foes have abruptly vanished without a trace. No tracks, no blood trail, no nothing.
If there wasn't a bit of debris left from the fight, it’d be impossible to guess that anyone was ever here.
Pandion is willing to chalk it up to divine interference, but you’re a little worried by the potential implications of that.
Here’s hoping Zeus doesn’t hold a grudge for beating his grandkids like they owed you money.
Still, what’s done is done.
Both you and Pandion are exhausted after the exertions of the day, and agree to set up camp after patching your wounds. Aside from a few scrapes and bruises, he’s perfectly fine.
You had to use a makeshift splint to ensure that your nose sets properly, but it should be fine soon. To speed your recovery, you gather a bit of kindling, start a small fire, and use your Fire nature to absorb a bit of its flame to jumpstart the process.
Then, after a meal of trail rations, you call it a night; quickly falling asleep as you enjoy the cool mountain air and watch the stars dance on distant horizons.
