(For context, this is the day before Monsterphelia)

in the private rooms of the hostess of fertility, the rooms of each varied due to each maid adding their own items in such rooms, except for the part-time maids who only add space thing's since their things can so easily be taken with how long they could be gone at times, all however, were 10x10 rooms with a single bed, a dresser, and a mirror for them all, the floors had red rugs in them that were about 3 feet in diameter, some had windows that showed them what the outside of the Hostess was on the streets, and while they didn't have personal bathrooms, there were walk-in closets, the maids wake up and unlike usual, they didn't hear anyone talking and also knocking down things with reckless abandonment this morning while being blamed for such instead of the perpetrator themselves, which upon it being 6 in the morning, all the maids woke up with lots of enthusiasm and energy in their bodies as they all shouted.

all Hostess Maids:" ( almost loud enough to shake the building) SYR'S NOT HERE TODAY"

Anya:" FINALLY, AFTER SO LONG, SHE'S NOT HERE TODAY"

Chloe:" FUCK YES, WE CAN FINALLY RELAX TODAY"

Mia:" she didn't say anything, but who do I care, the less we see her the better, whether she's sick or just playing hooky, so long as she's not here, good riddance"

Ryuu:" good, I don't have to worry about my part-time here"

Lefiya:" me either, we could actually get work done"

Mia:" Okay okay, calm down calm down, now that we can get work done, let me introduce you to our new member, not needing to in secret since Syr won't be challenging her to a cook-off, introduce Haruhime Sanjuro"

Haruhime:" I'm from the Japanese region"

Mia:" correction, Sanjuro Haruhime, treat her well"

Haruhime:" (nervously) I-I- I'm t-t-the new staff member, p-p-please treat me well"

Anya:" Aww, she's shy, it's cute"

Ryuu:" she'll get used to things soon enough"

then they began their day as normal, since Syr's antics makes doing their usual routing near impossible with fires, breaking of property, causing a staff member to break or burn things and those things being the tame parts of the mayhem Syr causes on a daily basis, they were able to actually work peacefully, they started their day pealing and cleaning the vegetables they were expected to serve to customers, preparing the meat by pre-roasting the meat they were going to serve, and all around, they were getting dishes cleaned, dried, and readied to be used, usually, Syr ruins this by mangling the vegetables and washing them with dish soap or even laundry soap and don't even wash everything, as well as mangle them to the point of not being able to use, she would sneak into the kitchen to add thing's last minute to the pre-roasting meats and ruins them beyond repair, and for the dishes she doesn't break, she leaves them either unwashed or covered in so much soap, it fills up half the dish.

upon opening, customers can immediately tell when Syr is there by the staff seeming calm and relaxed, which actually helps business as far more people come due to the food's quality and even quantity drastically increasing, as well as actually getting what they want as well, Syr wasn't liked by even the bad customers as she was by what they said " that rich girl who is only good for her looks alone and nothing else", she was pretty to look at by many, but nobody wanted her around due to the many thing's in her personality and performance as a maid if you could even call her one that ruins her appeal to everyone, it's why there is a floor that Syr is not allowed on where prices are 10 times higher, yet people fight to get to that floor due to just how bad Syr is, in fact, some rumors stated that Mama Mia had Syr continue to work there just to have this scandal to get away with overcharging food and drink like that.

upon the time it was the afternoon, business was bustling far more than before, all the staff were working better however since they actually work harder with Syr around, needing to always be ready to fix any mistake she'll make either intentionally or unintentionally as seemingly she's trying to do well in some things but does badly in other things, but the staff were not overwhelmed in the least, even the occasional ruffian was nothing short of a fly to shoo away, then Artemis came.

Artemis:" (inhales) aww, I love coming in here when it's safe to actually breathe in without Syr's poisons to ruin the air"

all beastfolk staff members:" HERE HERE"

Anya:" so what can I get you goddess"

Artemis:" please Anya, just treat me like a customer here, as for what I'll have... I'm having my time, I need a Periods meal"

Anya:" well given goddesses likely don't get periods in their divine bodies, I'm sure it's hard"

Artemis:" actually, goddesses get periods every day"

Anya:" (genuine shock and awe) OH FUCK, no wonder you all are so bitchy and moody all the time, that's a living hell"

Artemis:" actually having a break from having a period is a godsend even if it still occurs every once in a while"

Anya:" so that's why Hera was such a bitch all the time, combined with her husband cheating and having a period every day... why did the male gods do anything that could piss you all off"

Artemis:" they are not known to be smart Anya, remember that"

as they left this, the main reason why Freya wasn't acting as Syr was because she needed to avoid Vannea at all cost, and couldn't afford meeting her, especially now since it would certainly be the death of her Familia, though she cared little for them, they were needed for her to be able to have say, and to get her main price, Bell, she was thinking again of Bell, masturbating as if it was going out of style, plunging all her fingers if not her entire hands into her canal as she cried Bell's name desperate to get release as she felt less and less satisfied through sex, even orgies with dozens of men eventually felt unsatisfiying, desperately, she wanted to feel love, or more accurately, she wanted to be desired past her charm, Freya has seen her counterparts find true and utter happiness with people who are not influenced by their charm, and see them truly happy, she desired that, she wanted to be happy, in her purgatory of misery and pain, then as she once again failed to get release and pleasure, Ottar walked in, forgoing knocking as he knows well his goddess has no sense of shame or decency as she would say come in even if she were in the middle of a intence orgy with any man she fancied at the time, losing such care so long ago.

Ottar:" all of the Freya Familia is on standby in the home mansion as you requested and are remaining there till further notice"

Freya:" Huff Huff... good... Huff. we don't want to... Huff Huff... give Vannea a reason to attack"

Ottar:"... my lady, is pursuing this... Bell Cranel really worth it, I know you think of him as your Odr, but... every time we do, something goes wrong and you mistook them as your partner instead, besides, as far as we can tell, there is nothing about him that isn't... average for the most part, better than those who never seen combat before, but not so amazing as to warrant attention since he's not the first or last hunter from his village to want to be an adventurer, there are millions if not billions like him, before and certainly after"

Freya:" but his soul, it's pure white, clear, and transparent soul devoid of any malicious or self-serving intent, a soul void of any color except pure white, like looking into the mist of white steam, it radiated still, glowing as it burned with the boy's passion and desire to become strong, and yet, it had no malice, no hatred, no anger, it was nothing like normal people who become adventurers, and that is nothing like any mortal I have ever seen before"

Ottar:" even so, how can we be sure he won't just end up like... the others"

Freya:" he will be mine, he will make me happy, truly happy"

Ottar:" my goddess, if I may, can't he just refuse, as a part of Hestia's Familia, he's naturally immune to your charm like all who join a virgin goddesses Familia, and I don't think we can get away with attacking Hesita with many top contenders near here, especially the Athena Familia, who have a good rival to our power, and then there's the Artemis Familia who have one of our members who left"

Freya:" I'm not bothered by her leaving, she was free to after all, and I didn't say no, I only wanted her brother, she was just a tag along to keep Allen obedient long enough to make him unable to live without me, so much so, he'd rather stay with the woman who killed his family and friends as well as his kingdom than to stay by the one family member he has left in the world, everything I want to even give me a second of satisfaction and happiness... I will get it"

Ottar:" is being happy that important to you goddess"

Freya:"... I haven't been truly happy in so long, I forgot what it feel's like, my pain, my misery, my desperate attempts to not go insane, mortals can eventually die, but as gods, we are cursed with immortality, then Ishtar has been gleaming with happiness like no other with her child she thinks she's hiding from the likes of me... I have never been so jealous of that rancid bitch, so yes, no matter how many mortals die, I will be made happy by him, and if he doesn't want to comply... I'll make him, even if it cost me everything, I just want to be happy, once, and any punishment after will be worth it"

while Freya was on about this, Finn walks in to eat by himself at the hostess, namely due to hearing that Syr wasn't there, but upon entering, the place was so packed, that there was only one seat left, next to Athena, who he really didn't want to sit next to, but he already paid for food and since there are no refunds, he sat down, Athena sipping her drink as Finn tried not to get her attention.

Athena:" I know you're there, might as well stop sloughing"

Finn:" I wasn't hiding from you, I was minding my own business"

Athena:" oh, say's the man who broke 7 laws to get information on something that in the end, was legally justified and broken 12 different international laws in the process with 50% of his Familia being put on death row in his place due to not wanting to take responsibility "since I haven't made myself a name yet for my people" but let hundreds of others take the fall for you instead"

Finn:"... I never said I liked my decision back then"

Athena:" like the one where you let half a village die before you allowed your Familia to do anything since it would have looked better otherwise"

Finn:"... that was inexcusable"

Athena:" oh, here's the kicker, what about when Gareth and Riveria joined, you decided to do something immoral and those 2 backlashed at you, and started a civil war that nearly killed each and every member of your Familia since only 137 were left by the end of it, thousands of people who you were responsible for died because of your hero complex"

Finn:"... screw my money, I'm leaving, and for the record, my people need a beacon of light to follow"

Athena:" you're not a beacon of light Finn, you're a path of darkness, remember, Tartarus's Highway is pathed in good intention, and you're destined to Tartarus child of man"

Finn:"... I may be damned, but I want to at least inspire hope even if a little, and if not me, my heir will do so in my steed, better than myself"

Finn left as Athena sighed, knowing full well what Finn wishes to accomplish, yet, know's how other Hobbits see Finn, a glory hog who only seeks attention, the best Finn can hope for to be remembered is as a disgrace, not a hero, yet, Finn clings to his dream, a dream doomed to fail, the sad thing is, Finn is one of many like this, and Athena drink's as hardly anyone else can say people like Finn aren't a dime in a dozen, but hopes that a genuine hero will emerge just yet.

authors notes

yes, 2 ova's in a row, deal with it, I'm getting context above all

I made a few subtle changes, in case you missed it, Anya left Freya's Familia and joined Artemis's Familia as keeping Anya was never Freya's intention, and yes, Freya's plan for her brother was this sick and twisted, but Anya was able to escape before she would be in a similar fate to Mia

in my version, the main reason the goddesses were two moody and had so many varying emotions was due to having periods every day, which if real would explain a lot more than we thought before

because Freya fans will kill me if I don't mention this, I'm mentioning her villainous reasons for her actions now, her want for happiness at any cost, even the cost of millions if not billions of lives

I am stating Finn's crimes here to show how far he went to look heroic and to show how I am making Finn out to be, and also how dysfunctional the Loki Familia normally is, and yes, Athena said the truth in every word
