@Melinoe @Heracles As Demi falls back onto her bare ass, the vines holding Heracles release the heroine and recede back into the ground. It isn’t apparent just what the redheaded Olympian is seeing, but it terrifies her to no end. She cries out in fear and scoots back to where @GaiaGreendale happens to be hiding. [x]

@Heracles “You know the brutality of Queen Hera’s tribunal! She will be torn to pieces in the name of so-called justice!” The vines tighten, bringing Heracles further down into the earth. “Take me if you must have a head for the chopping block, but leave Gaia be!”
