Excellent story (as is "Blood and Betrayal", by the way).

I keep hoping for John Wayne or Randolph Scott (whispered "Randolph Scott") to ride in and save the day for the victimized lady. Not likely, though. Zeus knows how she survives....
Thank you, Sir Chuck.

Luckily for our lady, Zeus does know. So does Apollo and Artimes. :-)

Never fear, she will be rescued.

It is very hard sometimes to create these characters and work with them when I want to swat them upside the head for being so mean.
