Sophia stepped back at first but once the animal calmed down she came closer and put her hand on the horse's mane. The girl stroke the animal gently and said some calming words in Thracian. Then she turned to Stelios still petting the horse.
"So what was that about? And who was that?"

"Nice horse, bro," Prochorus said, using modern slang. "Where'd you get it?" He asked. "And does anyone have an idea where we go first?"
He moved up to stroke its neck too. "I heard children of Poseidon can take to horses, you know. Like telepathically."

Aithon calmed himself as Sophia stroked him. The foam went away from his mouth and his nostrils ceased to flare.
"Oh erm...well er...divine favour I guess," Stelios grumbled, not really sure how to answer. He didn't know if he should say that it was the actual Ares who he had just spoken to.
Aithon's seemingly natural aggression flared up once more as Prochorus went to stroke him. The boy didn't have permission. The beast violently shook before Prochorus' hand could reach him, Sophia's hand was also shaken off. A little disgruntled, Aithon walked off a bit, angrily grunting.
"I guess he's not a friendly horse kid," Stelios addressed Prochorus, "but as to where we're going, I think I might know the way."

Sophia shook her head disapponted and scolded Prochorus slightly. "Look what you did-you pushed him away. Animals also deserve respect you know."
Then she turned to Stelios, "Which way do we take then? We should probably get going as soon as possible because we can travel only during the day", Sophia remarked.

"Yeh, that will make things a little bit more difficult," Stelios grumbled, "alright then, if you're ready to get going, I'll lead the way," he offered, not particularly happy that he had to lead but he had no choice, needs a must. (OOC alright admin, where am I going? Haha cause Stelios might know but his author don't )

Iason broke out of his trance and cursed his busy schedule. He expected to spend some time on a chariot train today and figured that would allow him to become more involved.
'Well that was unusual. Like, really unusual. Child or not, gods don't just appear. Ever.' He rubbed his chin. 'This quest becomes more ominous by the minute but I'm ready when you are Sophia.'

Eurytus came galloping up. "Whoa, must have slept in!" He made his way up, puffing slightly. "I came to give you these," he told them, handing over three small bags. "They contain a small supply, 5 uses each, or ambrosia and necter. Use only in emergencies! And there is a bag of drachma too, for intercations, mortal of otherwise. It can also buy you food; I started you off but you'll need more." He bowed his head and tripped slightly.
"Whoops, still drunk. Good luck guys," he mumbled, getting up. "And don't believe someone if they say something about me and rape."
"Which someone," Prochorus asked.
"Anyone, really, a lot of people believe that whole rape lie," he said breezily before turning away. "Good luck guys." Iolus was by his side, looking grim.
"Heracles would always travel with something special, a gift I'd give him. I'd like you to do the same," he handed over a small wooden lion to Iason. "It'll shake when monsters are near." With that Iolus withdrew, beside Eurytus. They both nodded their heads and moved back through the gates.

Aithon seemed to growl over at Eurytus, he wasn't a real horse.
Stelios took the pouches and strapped them around his belt, adding the coins to his own coin purse.

Prochorus did the same and looked at Sophia expectantly.

Iason actually regained his senses in time to talk.
'Thank Iolas. Hey, I've just noticed something. We've been spelling your name wrong for ages.'
Iolas' eye twitched. 'How did you spell it?'
'Oh, I-O-L-A-S without a U after the A,' Iason shrugged.
'Right, well, it's Iolaus; Heracles mighty companion,' Iolas told them. 'Enjoy the lion. It's a model of the Nemanian Lion.'
'I never would have guessed,' Iason muttered. 'So, ready when you are Sophia.'

Prochorus nodded, hefting his bag. "Hey, prophecy any idea where to start?"

Sophia turned to Stelios, "You said you know which way to go. We need to hurry because we haven't much time. "
Stelios nodded at her and beckoned to follow him.
(OOC: Lets just get going cause it's been a slow day today XD)

(OOC did you just god mod me!? ) Stelios did not simple nod then wave for if he were to give instructions, even he'd speak them rather than simply use gestures. "Yeh I know which way to go," Stelios answered Sophia, "Aithon!" he called the horse over as the beast came trotting along at the side of the group. (OOC now we move )
