Aries silence wrote volumes as Calista questioned him.  Though there were some immortals who embraced humanity... Zeus and Apollo were two who loved thier daliances with mortals... Aries respected power.  Mortals who even registered as a blip to Aries were warlords and ultimate warriors.<br/><br/>It was then that Hephaestus streaked down from above.  Aries stood up with that smirk on his face he always got just before a battle.  To his ears, Calista's voice was barely heard, but Hapahestus immediately broke his battlestance.  Taking a step toward his wayward daughter, he offered out the hand he was not using to heft his oversized hammer onto his shoulder.  "<strong>Calista.</strong><em>Im sorry. </em>You know how I can get... without you to keep me straight."  It had been true.  Sometimes it seemed he would not last a century without his lovely daughter by his side.  This was quite sobering for someone of such nearly limitless power.  "Ill take you home.  There need be no conflict..." he said as he side glanced Aries.  They would never see eye to eye, but that didnt mean they had to destroy anything... that was what titans and other agents of chaos did.
