The gods turned their attention to the ant mound immediately after they found out something is going on. They saw a royal guard approach the front line and speak to the soldiers. They heard what the royal guard asked for. Then they all turned their attention towards Stelios.
Stelios was in thought for a while before he spoke. "I agree. There doesn't seem to be anything out of place. They want a demigod to be the intermediary between the gods and them. They chose him because he is the only demigod around. But the colossus must escort him for his safety."
Harkam and the other 7 gods sighed in relief. Stelios had the right to refuse but he didn't. They appreciate it and have to admit that he truly is reliable.
Harkam chose that point to speak up. He grinned smugly and said, "You have me to thank for this. Now there's progress because of me. If I hadn't done something, we would have been here for many years to come."
