"Hera" is really Lamashtu.
I'm not sure why those words come out of my mouth.
Maybe it's just the too-dramatic too-cheesy melodrama timing. Hera just happens to pay a visit to Hades when we're performing a play that makes her look like the scheming villainess? If this were a drama, I'd call that lazy writing. There's no reason for her to visit the Underworld.
Hera--if that's who she really is--never breaks a sweat. "I just came here to help with wedding preparations for one of my sons. CLEARLY, I should have been involved in every aspect of this ceremony, right down to the wedding night."
"My worst nightmare," Hades mutters. Then, to me, "Are you SURE this isn't my mother?"
"Not 100 percent, but I don't trust coincidences."
Daji folds her arms. "I wouldn't put it past Lamashtu, who we know had a spy in the Underworld, to come and cause chaos. She is the reigning queen of chaos."
