*Now a deity himself, Tory goes after Thanatos and finally beats the absolute shit out of him, including snapping his spine and limbs - retaliation for all that Thanatos has ever done. This act of revenge triggers Tory's rise to power as the God of Grudges & Blood Feuds. Maci gets her injuries supernaturally healed and adds the event to her endless compartmentalized backlog of un-dealt-with trauma. |

*OrigiMel walks straight out of Tartarus once she hears what Tory had done to Thanatos. She ascends to the mortal world and kills 1,001 mortals in a single night bloodbath, murdering each in the exact method of injury Tory had done to Thanatos. Tory confronts OrigiMel to stop her, leaving her plagued with Epi-brand nightmares and believing he'd won their face off. |

They immediately artificially age him up to 11 years old and begin to train Chal as a puppet in acts of villainy. |

Babysitter Jesse is unlucky enough to stand off against Chal and Thanatos for the first time, losing this battle in a bloody mess - but discovering unwittingly in the aftermath once Neo's gone that his newly divine powers include the ability to heal himself, and his unborn daughter. |

When Melanie dies, eMel uses her powers as Goddess of Ghosts to physically rip apart her shade into scattered fragments, leaving almost nothing left of her. Epi shatters. |

*In an ambush set-up, Epi is finally located - but by this time his memory has been mostly erased by eMel and Eris, making him uncontrollably dangerous while trapped in his daemon form. As Tory and Alena fight and subdue him, gMel appears and defeats her other half, reabsorbing her back together. Epi is taken back to the Elysium palace and healed. |

*Epi discovers he's pregnant again, though this time unintentionally. Meli returns with Melanie's shade, patched together; Epi allows the new unborn child to absorb Melanie's soul, reincarnating her... unaware that this time around, he's actually carrying twins Ty and Bel.

*Thanatos, from his cell in Tartarus, is filled in by Eris of the drama of the months past, the release and recapture of Melinoe and the trauma inflicted upon Epi. Learning that Epi and Eury now have vulnerable children of their own, and in his slipping insanity deciding that while post-partum, surely Epi is less of a threat to fuck with, Thanatos seeks out a different previous victim to terrorize - Eury. Eris hacks the Elysium barrier to shut it temporarily off, and breaks Thanatos out of his cell. |

*At Thanatos' orders, Chal reappears from wherever the hell he'd been, to break into the palace and kidnap Eury to drop at Thanatos' feet. While in the palace, at the guidance of Eris Chal also manages to slip a poison in Meli's vicinity for the purpose of later chaos. With Eury deposited into his grasp, Thanatos manages to attack him only briefly before Epi shows up, furious that Thanatos would dare harm his mate and challenge him so directly. |

*Meli finally accidentally drinks the lurking poison that Chal had planted. eMel escapes their physical body ''again'', but when she beelines straight to harm the twins gMel rushes after her and they both vanish... |
||
*And when Melinoe soon after reappears, reunited together again as one... despite acting same as ever, this Melinoe is now being secretly puppeted by her evil half. This very temporary version, "MelE" puts on a weepy show of wanting to guard and protect the baby twins from harm especially given Thanatos' recent events. There is no visible reason not to trust her. |

⚫ | *The second she's left unattended, MelE approaches the twins in their crib with malicious intent and tries to harm them. Before she can, the extremely powerful months-old-mindreaders Ty and Bel ''forcibly slam her back and yank the correct Meli back into consciousness'', locking the evil half buried much deeper inside of her. Everyone is uhh, a little taken aback by how easily they managed to do that, but overall a happy ending is had. |

*Meanwhile... though unbeknownst to most of the the residents of the palace, a commotion begins in the mortal world within one of their cities, as a deity from another realm stages a hostile takeover. Though the event resolves itself topside, it perks on Tory's radar due to the sheer weirdness of it all and the brief influx of shades; though there's always strange things happening in the mortal world, and no one thinks anything else of it. |

*Epi meets Loki, wandering lost and angry in the Underworld shortly after an off-screen crashlanding. Sweetly leading him to the guard dog Cerberus, Epi reports back to Maci and Tory that a mortal has broken into the Underworld once again. |
|||
*Reappearing (to save Maci's puppy what the hell), Epi leads them to where Loki is now causing a scene, but Tory immediately recognizes this "mortal" for who he is, having just seen the chaos on the news. Tory immediately throws Loki in Tartarus for safekeeping. He starts the process of contacting the... <small>[stares directly at the camera]</small> ''team'' who had previously neutralized him a few days ago. |

*Maci calls time-out. |

*Loki is too pretty to rot in Tartarus forever, she says; and maybe there's a way to show him the error of his ways, if only they could take him home. Plus, again... he's really, really pretty. A brief argument ensues. |
|||
*...which Maci wins. Batting his eyelashes, Loki goes along with this as his ticket to manipulated freedom and allows himself to be extracted out of Tartarus and brought to the Elysium palace. All plans of escape fizzle as Loki discovers by the time they arrive in the palace that his brother has already been summoned to meet them there. |
