Chapter 6: Cercyon:

Circe's POV:

I was watching this mortal... Theseus! At first, I found him entertaining... but now I'm starting to get annoyed! He's unbeatable! But that's going to change!

King Minos' POV:

I just gotta wait for this man to come and then I'll feed him to that monster! To think that my wife... would have an affair... with... with... GAH!

Ariadne's POV:

I was watching my brother as he seemed restless and hungry. I feel so sorry for him!

Theseus' POV:

We arrived in Cercyon. "So, where's that weird drunk guy," asks Phaedra.

"I'm here," says the Drunk.

"And what are we to expect here," I asked.

"Eleusis! He challenges passers-by to a wrestling match and, when he beats them, he kills them!"

"Got it," I said.

. . .

We were walking when Eleusis showed up. "Which one of you would like to wrestle me," asks Eleusis.

"I will," I said.

"Say hi to Pluto for me," says Eleusis.

We then wrestled to the ground, but... I won. "Say hi yourself," I said. After winning, I then killed him.

"So, we just continue," asks Phaedra.

"Pretty much," I said.

"I know you only kill those who deserve it, but... do you ever feel remorse," asks Phaedra, "do you have any humanity?"

I didn't respond to that. "Let's go," I said. We just continued moving.
