Description

How about a drink... for a very old friend?

We aren’t "friends," Hades. This establishment is mine and I don’t serve the likes of you… now be gone before I remove your head!

Come now, Artemis, there is no need for idle threats. I am the Lord and Master of the Underworld and I know exactly when and how I am going to die. Can you say the same? Perhaps it is your head that I have come for?

Now who's making idol threats? We both know that Zeus himself would slay you if you so much as lifted a finger towards me. What is it that you want, dear uncle?

I have come to address a troubling rumor... It has been brought to my attention that you have finally chosen to bestow your blessings upon an Amazon Champion.

What of it? It is the right of every goddess to do so… not that it’s any of your business.

Oh, but perhaps it is! The timing is very curious. I would find myself most displeased if you were to choose a champion that already belongs to me.

She isn’t yours yet, Hades.

Her time has come, Artemis. It is the natural order of things. She has lived for many thousands of years, which is far more than any mortal woman deserves.

Ha! Do you think she deserves an eternity under your lascivious gaze? I’m well aware that you've been looking forward to her demise for a very long time. Perhaps you covet this particular mortal's flesh for yourself?

Mind your tongue, Huntress. Chryseis is nothing to me. It is her time and that is all.

I believe the Amazon Arrow has much more to contribute… and even if I didn’t, I’m inclined to choose her simply to spite you.

You know the rules, Artemis. The Underworld has vacancies to fill. If you deny me the one whose time has come, it is my right to choose another.

I’m sure that you will do as you must, dear uncle… and so will I when the time is right!

Beautiful eye color... But she must be a difficult enemy to deal with..
Wow, so even superheroines are- like us- pawns in their hands? Does the bartender accept credit card payments? This is a bit frightening..(I'm no heroine, for sure)

A somewhat daring render in that it shows no physical action or costumed heroine or villain.  I love it when someone does something different and does it well.  Without the dialogue this could be a scene from a classy 1940's noir.  Artemis's face shows both character and intelligence.  A splendid scene.

Ooh. Mythology. Intrigue.

Just to check, was using 'idol' (as in image of a god) rather than 'idle' (lazy, meaningless) a pun?

I like the way this is put together, the normal bar atmosphere with the drinks, with the glamorous dress and good suit...then finding out what they really are. Very interesting Worried about what it means for Chrys and friends, but excited!
