The interruption to Thanatos’ monologue was a mere split second of three heads turning to see Tory's entrance; a brief hesitation appearing in Thanatos’ eyes, for the last time he’d gone toe to toe with Tory he had lost horribly. But that second was the exact “in” Maci had been waiting for, and in the singular moment that Thanatos had allowed himself to be distracted, Maci tore his scythe from his hands. She allowed her restraint to vanish. In Neo’s name, inferno blazing, Maci descended upon him with his own scythe and ''hacked.'' Thanatos was not fast enough to stop her. |

In fact, no one tried to stop her. Tory was in sync with her and as Ker and Chal stared at Maci’s assault on Thanatos, Tory had already broken through Neo’s cage and summoned the Furies back, another split second. Perhaps Maci was unstoppable, but Ker didn't even try. Only Chal attempted to rush forwards to save Thanatos |

Tory was in sync with her and as Ker and Chal stared at Maci’s assault on Thanatos, Tory had already broken through Neo’s cage and summoned the Furies back, another split second. Perhaps Maci was unstoppable, but Ker didn't even try. Only Chal attempted to rush forwards to save Thanatos from this unceasing assault, but was quickly restrained back by Ker herself, impaling Chal’s shoulder with her entire clawed hand to slam Chal back against the cavern’s wall. When the Furies appeared to collect Thanatos, ''the actual Thanatos'' this time, Ker vanished with Chal still in her gory grasp, never to be seen again (or… would they?). |

Maci was still going, scything apart the god who’d harmed them over and over and over again for more years than she could count, now her daughter too, with hysterical violent wrath. She continued well after Thanatos was incapacitated, until Tory pried her off of him, pried the scythe out of her own hands, and clung to her - the adrenaline fueled anger and panic finally ebbed. Covered in the ichor of Thanatos and clutching their baby, all three of them in tears, Tory and Maci watched the Furies collect the maimed remains of an unconscious Thanatos, before they returned home. Thanatos was now finally, finally, ''finally'' imprisoned away. |
