So, some time ago, my wonderful brother decided to inflict yet another plague on humanity. I tried to stop him with the obvious “Apollo, they suffered enough through the Black Plague!” and “Maybe you feel like causing damage because of self-sabatoge” and “Well, you don’t see Dionysus’ influence everywhere, you selfish bit-“
unfourtunately it didn’t work. He kept pestering me over and over to help him decide how to start it off. It had been a rat, then a cow, then whatever animal tickled his fancy. I suggested one of those but he whined
”Hermes! Those were so 675 years ago! I want to do something original!” like the child he was and left to go ask my much nicer brother. Dionysus jokingly suggested bats because he liked them.
Now here we are. Apparently Apolly didn’t realize his effects in the long run, and now people are praying to him for the plague he started. I hope he feels bad about it, because I don’t think humanity will get over this any time soon. However, I’ve been getting a lot of travelers lately, so maybe this could help me out.
Still, I think he enjoys it too much to stop it any time soon. First the dancing plague, now this…
