Hell hath no fury...
Than a mother who lost her child D:
WHO: Mnemosyne, Ilios and anyone hearing her shouting D:
WHEN: Sunset, when everyone's supposed to be in the mess hall.
---
"ILIOS!" Mnemosyne yelled in half panic. "ILIOS WHERE ARE YOU?!" The half panic was becoming full panic very quickly now, Mnem was already breathing quickly, worst-case scenarios floating in her head quite rapidly.
"Damn you Gods, damn you!" She cried out, though that might now be the smartest thing to do. But it was all their fault! They were the sick bastards that thought it funny to give the Athenaeum a dungeon fit for a full fledged hero to get lost in. A dungeon that was more like a labyrinth, more like the labyrinth, with some monsters Mentors wouldn't even dare using in their lessons!
And now- and now- she didn't even want to think about it!
It had been the end of a particularly busy day. Mnemosyne had been lecturing the youngest student on proper ways of praying and addressing the Gods, after which she had had to solve a dispute between two Warriors who had created a sword together after which they both wanted it, and there was the after-classes rehearsal for Hyppolitus and to top the day off there was a fight between two Warriors, and after that the she had to break up a heated discussion between the Mentors of the kids over who had started it. It had not been a good day.
And then when she returned to her chambers just before the dinner was served she'd found the slave that was taking care of her children, the regular one had a fever and was being treated in the infirmary, to have fallen asleep, and Ilios nowhere to be found!
The boy, however, left quite a trail to follow. His wings were still growing into what would be their adult feathers, so his boy's fluff was shedding, therefore there were little fluffs of feather wherever he went, and the fluffs of feathers went straight into the dungeon.
"ILIOS!" she called out, on the verge of tears. "ILIOS!"

Re: Hell hath no fury...
Amaranth sighed as she walked through the dungeons. She needed to find a monster to toy with for whips class, one that she could have her warriors fight and live, but also learn and gain experiance. It was her plan to slowly start out with weak monsters for the warriors to battle and slay and then move up to the intermediate and the hard ones, but of coarse the hard ones would only be used when the warriors were good and experianced. She'd never let them loose on anyone lower than a 5th year.
Amaranth sighed as she walked, her ears sensitive as she heard an ever so familir voice. 'ILIOS' she heard Mnem call.
Oh shit.
Mnem's son must have gotten away and lost in this labyerenth. Amaranth picked up speed and ran following Mnem's voice to find her, she finally did and rushed to her side. "He's lost?" She panted to catch her breath. One way or another Amaranth and Mnemosyne had known eachother for a very long time...since they were both warriors. She was there when Mnem gav birth to her first child, and all her children. Out of everyone in the Athenaeum, Mnem is her best friend, and to her, Mnem's kids are like her neices and nephew's.
Amaranth gulped, horror showing on her face ."I will help you search for him, come."

Mnemosyne was rapidly approaching hyperventilation, her mind caught up in anything and everything that could happen to Ilios. There were many a creature here. Various kinds of chimera, and wall-rats who were small but could definitely harm. And there were Stymphalian Birds, great birds who feast of flesh, with their greatest delight being man flesh. And hell hounds, the places crawled with hell hounds.
And she wouldn't even dare think about the mind flayers. And the magic sucker, oh Gods the magic sucker.
"ILIO-" She was interrupted by the approach of Amaranth. As in a days she nodded to the words, but didn't quite take them in. "H-he's in here, Amaranth," she said shakily. "He must be lost, and terrified, and hungry. Gods he must be so scared, oh forbid that he should cry out, the monster would find him. The monsters, oh Gods the monsters!"
Mnemosyne was fully panicking now, she ran toward the nearest opening, calling out to her son. When a small wall-rat appeared she summoned vins from the walls that violently ripped the creature apart before it could even register what had happened. Not quite caring how she would find her way back she blindly started deeper into the dungeon.
