We seek the help of divine when in trouble but in times of true crisis , even the most faithful one turns to other forces. For that is the time , morality is tested.
........................................................................
Medea was daughter of King Aeetes, brother of Circe , son of Titan Helios , grandson of Titan Hyperion. She was a very powerful sorceress when she lived and she live now too just banished to deep Ocean. When the war broke out , she escaped to temple of Hecate.

Now

"Are you sure it is good idea for us to go to temple of Hecate?" Daniel beeseeched.

"I don't understand why we can't go?" Asteria enquired back.

"Oh! Well. How about I just discovered my family history and how I have sorcery as one of my skills apparently but I can't use it because I am dead and dead man do no spells." He scoffed.

"Yes! But that news didn't bother you , did it?" She asked hesitatingly.

"Seriously! It did. Did you not see me gasping for breath which I am still not sure that how is that possible since I am dead." He grumbled.

"Oh! Poor child. You are undead actually." She soothed .

"Don't call me child. It is weird and undead makes me feel like I am zombie which I am not. I am a ghost." He pleaded.

"Fine! But we are going to temple now. Now I am not sure that in mortal realm , I can hold your hand..." She tried to hold hand but it just passed through him.

"Yup! That answers my question. So I can't use magic." She pouted.

"We both know what that means." Daniel grinned.

"Oh! No! That is not gonna happen." She refused noticing his grin.

"Yup! It is." He chuckled.

Time skip
"The flight scheduled for Greece is going to take off in 30 seconds. Please fasten your belt and switch off your devices." An announcement was made.

"This is not good for me." She stuttered.

"Wow! I can't believe I am in a plane." Daniel jabbered.

"Are you even listening to me?" Asteria glared.

"Not really. I can't see what is the harm .." He began and noticed that she had gone silent as plane took off.

"Huh! I guess this means that you will be silent whole trip." He whispered to which she nodded.

"Great! Now I have just some questions. If I am spirit, how I am sitting on seat and it feels cosy , how did that security guy .." He babbled.
Asteria kept listening with a sudden urge to punch him every few seconds to shut him up and tell that she can at least do that little magic around him.

Time skip
"Ok! I am not complaining just to be clear . The sight is good. The garden looks good. But why are we here?" Daniel wondered as they were right now in temple but no was there.

"Wait for her" Asteria simply told him.

"Wait for who?" He asked puzzled.

"Me." A dark eyes girl from whom blood was flowing like it will drop any second but didn't.

"What the..? Why are you dressed like for a Halloween Eve?" He flatered.

"Huh! He is a joker." She chuckled.

"Who is she?" Daniel groaned.

"I am Medea , descendant of Helios , niece to Circe and worshipper of Hecate." She solemnly replied.

"Cool! Now do you know us?" He speculated.

"Of course. You are Daniel Chase , recently killed by a jackal face god and reborn as spirit." She smiled.

"She is good. I gotta give her that." He grinned looking at Asteria.

"So what exactly do you plan to do with him , Medea ?" Asteria asked her.

"Wait? Are you guys talking about me? Shouldn't I be consulted what has to be done with me?" He guessed. They both glared. "I guess not." He sighed.

"Gods will never allow dead to enter living form again but I can. For I am not a god." She gushed.

"You will be sticking out for consequences and they will not be great." Asteria warned her.

"I know. But all my life , I had one thing that kept me driving forward : vengeance. If I can't get vengeance on Greek gods , then I will get on some other gods by reviving Chase. " She asserted.

"Alright! You can have all Egyptian gods to yourself if you wanna kill them." She reassured her. She smiled evilishly and then nodded her head.

"So what is she gonna do? Bring me back from dead," He approached them.

"Yes! And she will also train you for there is no one better at her in training art of sorcery. I am not good at teaching and i have to still figure out myself. Hecate and Circe are too busy. Medea is your best chance." She told him.

"But doesn't training in something like magic take lot of time? At least couple of weeks?" He questioned.

"Yes! Actually even months." She quipped.

"So what will you do in this period?" He looked at her folding his arms.

"I am going away. My journey is different from you . We both will play roles in war to come. But we can't be prepared for it together. You have your own goal to achieve. I have my own." She explained.

"I don't know what to say...I mean it is nice that you are thinking of having me trained but I mean are you sure you gonna be ok ?" He asked her.

"Yeah silly! I survived a Millenia alone. I am pretty sure I can survive it now too. Take care of yourself , Daniel." She hugged him.

"You too." He said pulling away and then with a whoosh of portal , she was gone somewhere else.

"So how are you?" Daniel asked Medea.

"Eager to bring you back." She replied.

"Oh! Thank you . It is so great to know.." He began.

"To beat you to pulp and extract magic inside you to surface." She continued.

"This is gonna be fine. I think." He nervously sighed.
