Momo pulls a bewildering trick, leaving the two Goddesses disorientated for his allies.

Momo activates Switcheroo on Freya and Megara!
It has no visible effect!
(Momo's Discombobulate activates!)
Freya and Megara lose 15 Eva and 3 DR for 1 turn!

"You mistake me for one of those pathetic animals your tribe hunts, mortal. I will have to educate you. Unlike them, I am no prey. Unlike those demons you care so much about."

(Rhea's Cradle of Jade activates! Freya's Lull of Complacency and Song of Peace, and Megara's Roar of Dominion do not activate!)

Hit Rate: 72 to hit

Freya takes 18 damage!

Freya retaliates!
Hit Rate: 54 to hit

Jarvis takes 18 damage!

Milly's shield takes the brunt of the damage, but it's clear it wasn't meant to take on the brunt of a Goddess' power.

Meanwhile, Megara lifts an eyebrow as Keith approaches.
"Oh, you do know him? Mind hooking a sister up with some albums? I'm a huge fan of his. Never been a fan of this whole "organised religion" thing. Totally love the anarchy thing. Feels kinda icky being worshipped."
"Quit talking like that with the small people, sister! Who's side are you even on?!"

Keith's punches, even as Megara makes small talk with him, are easily evaded. Unlike his earlier opponents, he fights an aeons-old Goddess Dragon now, one that, with even a mite of her strength, far exceeds him. One punch slips past her defenses however, despite her speed, and clips her on the cheek, only for Keith to be caught with a kick to the gut, pushing him back. She wipes her mouth.

"Damn. Impressive. Serena did a bang-up job dragging you guys over. I'm not even mad."

(Rhea's Cradle of Jade activates! Freya's Lull of Complacency and Song of Peace, and Megara's Roar of Dominion do not activate!)

Freya then guffaws at Shoes' approach.
"Mewling wretch! Kneel before your creator!"

(Rhea's Cradle of Jade activates! Freya's Lull of Complacency and Song of Peace, and Megara's Roar of Dominion do not activate!)

Shoes takes 28 damage!

Shoes is downed!

With a blast of light, Shoes is forced to support herself on her lance, barely standing after a barrage of spells.
"That was but a taste of my power. Kneel, worm-"

However, a well-timed arrow sinks itself into Freya's arm, causing her to yell in pain, as Yliss takes the opening to shoot her. Freya glares angrily at her, wrenching the arrow out without even flinching.
"You wretched perversion of nature! Behold, the Light of Peace!"

(Yliss' has a "severe pollen allergy"....)
Yliss loses 2 HP!

(Rhea's Cradle of Jade activates! Freya's Lull of Complacency and Song of Peace, and Megara's Roar of Dominion do not activate!)

Yliss is knocked on her back by the force of Freya's counterattack, but it's clear the attack caught her off guard, making her less confident.
XP: 95/100

"Hey, the blonde chick's pretty metal. I like it."
"Whose side are you on, Megara?"
"Hey, you made me take you down here, Freya. Pitched a fit about telling Mom if I don't. Like I said, I don't really care either way."
"Tch. Anyway, silence, Revivian. You talk like you owe us Goddesses nothing. We brought you here. You were nothing before. Have some gratitude; you led a pointless life back on whichever world we plucked you from, and we gave you the potential to be someone significant."
"I did that. Not you. You didn't do anything. How dare you take credit? I was the one who asked Mom if we could try to get heroes from another world to end this stupid pointless war already because it was hurting mortals, and she said I had to share with you because you convinced her I didn't know how to share. And you made me do all the work! Why do you think I'm here?! I wanted to end this stupid war myself if I had to!"
"You've never been a team player, Serena. If you were, do you think we'd be in this situation? Hmph."
Freya stares at Shoes.
"....who are you again?"

"If we don't have time, then I'll explain quickly."
"Freya laid that accursed silence upon us. We don't know why. All we know was....it was after Lady Demogorgia fell."
"wot"
"...I am sorry, Beelzebub. I know she was your friend. Lady Demogorgia fell. Slain by one of your mortal adventurers. Cecil, I believe. You mortals built him a statue for that great feat. And then the Goddesses silenced us to prevent us from telling you this. Goddesses know why. Lord Mephistopheles, the Demon Lord....he was her servant. Her right hand man, her butler. He recovered her body. He was the one who rallied our kind to war against you mortals and the Goddesses. He didn't tell us why, save that Lady Demogorgia deserved to be avenged, but only a few of us knew."
Mammon clenched his fist.
"Lady Demogorgia....she desired nothing but peace with you mortals. A world where Leviathan and I could live in peace, our love....protected as yours would be. And yet you mortals slew her....for millennia, I didn't understand why. How you could all claim you wanted peace and slew the woman who could give it to you....I couldn't understand. You mortals have to understand, my anger was justified, but misdirected. I thought you mortals were all working together to end us demons for no reason save that the Goddesses themselves demanded our end."
"Perhaps this is another devilry of the Goddesses. Only Lord Mephistopheles knows, and he has never told us."

"My sister Akiha went out to the east. She's currently working in Yasoinaba."

"I'm sorry goddess magic doesn't live up to your expectations. Would you like me to bring a flood to Blobbonia to show you how impressive we can get?"
"Serena."
"Sorry. Force of habit."

Mammon stares around at the group.
"....the Curse was.....laid upon every demon in existence. Well....most of them."
He pauses, as if expecting to be silenced.
"....so, you godlings actually lived up to your side of the bargain. I'm shocked."

Preliminary Review 2
I will be reviewing any and all sheets sent in for story and mechanical things. The next review will be on the 5th of November. Anyone who was cleared last time will be skipped.

-snip-

Your skills are tentatively approved. If I change my mind, I will let you know either before or during next review. Your backstory is fine.

-snip-

Backstory is fine.

-snip-

Skills are fine. The backstory is still short. I'll want some expansion.

-snip-

Skills are now fine.

-snip-

Skills are fine. Gonna need a slightly more relevant bio to explain her stuff in Hermelin. Give me that and you're clear.

-snip-

Gonna need some explanation of how or if she attends Hermelin (or what she does otherwise ala Mildred). Otherwise, all clear.

Mammon glares at them for a few moments, the werewolves, nagas and demons with him prepared to fight. The tension is palpable as he considers their evidence.

Then, he sheathes his sword, pats his wyvern, and dismounts, strolling towards the group.

"....get your other godling, then. Break it. And if you should be lying, my men will set upon you like wolves."
