New Pantheon 3
If you are a new reader, you might want to subscribe to “Holiday Wars” as well as start reading it from the beginning. Once you’re caught up on the main storyline then checkout the side stories in “Tales of Holiday’s Past.”
We’ve seen gods in the Holiday Wars Universe and we’ve heard them talked about before in the main storyline, but hopefully this newest story is really starting help put all the pieces together.
Nice imagery there. I wonder how Eastre ended up on the opposite side of this argument …
BTW, "Mayans", "Romans" and "Greeks" are all both plural and possessive in context – meaning that each should end with an apostrophe: Mayans', Romans', and Greeks'. Alternatively, removing the "s" from the end of each would turn the words into adjectives that are neither plural nor possessive. This would make a subtle connotative difference, but wouldn't really change the basic meaning or intent of the passage, I don't think. It might be easier to read that way, too.
LOL you could've just said "They are plural possessive."
Ha! You're right. As a son of a teacher, and a possible future teacher, I do (occasionally) tend toward the unnecessarily excessive exposition.
😉
But oh do we kill each other magnificently!
Though I can see that point, it is a very good one and now comes either the rebuttal or the agreement of the strongest beings at the moment.
Ok, then what happens?
Then they decide to go to Disneyland!
Yeah. Think about all the disagreements we had with celebrating holidays. We argue the best way to celebrate Christmas. Whether to have trick or treating curfews. What is the meaning of Thanksgiving? That's just when we see them as mere holidays. What happens when humanity in general realize that there are holiday 'gods'?
Yeppers. It wouldn't be good.
It should be noted that Anubis doesn't eat the heart of the dead, it's Ammit, a crocodile-hippopotomus hybrid. Otherwise, very good.
Well, at least that's the story as it has survived today, through the dim glass of history and multiple translations.
Who really knows which god did what 4000+ years ago?
😉
This is Gaia's retelling of what happened. We aren't actually seeing it, which means there could be inaccuracies.
And I am aware that Ammut was the Devourer of Souls (and we will see her in a later story) but that doesn't mean none of the other gods couldn't eat people when they were in the mood.
