The Plaka is quiet, the twisting, wandering cobblestones have few souls on them this odd Spring night as Demeter leads Clark into Athens.

Demeter turns, her veil slipping for a moment as she is home and old memories keep rising in her heart and she is complicated and true,

Her lips tremble just once, and she has to fight the urge to hold him with her forever in this garden. Instead, Eirene curls her fingers around his lightly, briefly, and then stands up to move away.

"Thank you." It's not quite clear which of his statements she's thanking him for, but then, it doesn't really matter. All of them are important to her. And to him.

When Clark has stood as well, she walks with him to the front door, studiously ignoring the curious eyes of her sisters.

Each of them is given a slight smile in turn regardless, as well as Themis. Clark was raised to be a polite houseguest, so matter how short the stay.

"Take care," he says to Eirene, and then gives her hand a very gentle squeeze, before stepping back out onto the road and starting back toward where he hopes Demeter is still waiting.
