I was sleeping in my bed when a frantic knocking emitted through my small house. When I didn't get up right away the person started repeatedly ringing my doorbell. I shouted irritably "coming!". I got dressed quickly. I grabbed my weapons and strapped them to my back, then I ran down the stairs, and through my living room, opening the door. It was a guard from the casel. I thought to myself this can only mean one thing, Athena is in trouble or thinks she is in trouble. I gestured for the guard to come into my humble abode.
She came in quickly, bowing down respectfully before standing awkwardly and riged. "Princess Athena has sent me here to protect you, I have no clue as to why she sent me, all her father wants to talk about is getting her a husband." the guard said with a pale face as she realised that Astraea must be Athena's girlfriend.
Astraea was now royally pissed off and said in a blinde rage "who do you think he's going to marry her off to? Is he going to be one of those pricks who think they can get their way with Athena? Are they perverted? I swear on the stars if this man as much as thinks about touching Athena I will personally make sure he will never be able to have a child of his own, he will wish he never agreed to the proposal."
The guard grew even more pale and said "I-I think he wants to marry her off to the prince of the name Aristaeus, the god of cheese making and bee keeping, his parents are the god Apollo and the huntress Cyrene."
Astraea looked at the guard in confusion "who is that?" she demanded.The guard replied with "he is a minor god, he isn't well known, but Athena's father hopes they will make a good match."
