*~*Talia's POV*~*
I took the time to unpack for myself. The small, tedious task was enough to occupy my hands, but not my mind. As I pulled the dresses, shirts, pants, pajamas, and all the other clothes from the multiple bags and boxes I brought from home, I tried to think about what was going on here. And why the others never told me what was happening.
It was clear that the destruction had gone on for more than a day. The burning had been happening for almost a week, at the very least. And the other Gods hadn't been in the castle back home for that long, so it had to have started before they left. Which made no sense to me at all.
If the revolt, uprising, insurrection, coup, mutiny, or whatever you wanted to call it, was happening before they left, then why didn't they stop it? Why did they let this go on? Were they losing control of the people before they left? Had they lost their powers? What was actually going on here?
