Greece brings evildoers

At night, Ares Mountain.

After a hard day's work, the survivors of Crete sat around in the open space, waiting for the two princesses to distribute dinner.

Because too many Minoans poured into Athens at one time, even if the King of Athens prepared a place to stay in advance, it was only a simple shelter to shelter from the wind and rain. Many things in it needed to be slowly improved.

Therefore, in a short period of time, they, this group of wanderers, still need to eat a few big meals.

Regarding this, the two princesses, one being steady and the other being fickle, had no objections.

And Hestia, who was rarely able to use her own talents, even agreed with her hands.

Although she is a god, she regards these ordinary people who have been with her for a long time as her neighbors and friends.

Although King Minos and those respectable warriors were bent on death, it is also true that they failed to help them at the critical moment.

Therefore, Hestia has always felt guilty about this.

Now that she had a chance to make amends, she was naturally filled with joy and devoted herself to making dishes every day.

The meal in the evening was still sumptuous, consisting of fragrant stew and hungry bread. The two princesses were responsible for sharing the meals.

After the steaming hot food was received, the two princesses filled a glass of sweet wine for them one by one as a consolation after the meal.

At first, the Minoan people who gathered together were a little flattered when they saw the once-high-ranking royal blood bending down and kneeling for them. Some even some old people with old ideas refused to accept it.

However, as time went by, the public realized that the two princesses were not just showing off, and gradually relaxed. The class colors of each other gradually faded, and the ties of blood connected them.

——Wine is our blood and we will sacrifice for you.

——Our blood is thicker than water, we are connected by blood!

After drinking this glass of wine, they will reunite in their sleep with the heroic spirits who are facing death and their lost relatives.

Therefore, even if they are ordinary people who are worthy of their bloodline and the land, they can calmly raise their wine glasses and accept this scarlet gift.

"Sister Phaedra, I dreamed about my father."

"Me too, but I dreamed that it was Sister Severa from the temple."

"And Uncle Florence, he smiled at me in my dream!"

Several young children who did not know how to feel sad gathered around the fourth princess Phaedra, chattering and talking, their little faces full of pride.

A group of adults who were eating heard those words and names, chewed the food in their mouths, and smiled. There was not much sadness in the atmosphere.

The Greeks were afraid of death and attributed both sleep and death to the management of the underworld.

However, they are different.

As the scribe said, life is a labor and trial, with only a short rest, and the end of the journey, death, is eternal sleep.

After people died, the goddess of the night took them to the underworld.

There, a big black river flows turbulently, carrying the pain of the world.

After crossing the river, there is a vast gray plain, which is called the Field of Truth. It connects two roads, leading respectively to the place of happiness - [Elysee Paradise] and the place of pain - [Tartarus Hell]. The souls of the dead receive righteous judgment at the judgment seat in front of the Garden of Truth.

Their beloved King Minos will make a just judgment based on their merits and crimes during his lifetime.

Guilty people will receive varying degrees of punishment in hell according to their crimes, while those who are innocent will be able to live a happy, quiet and happy life in the beautiful and peaceful Elysee Paradise.

So in comparison, death is not terrible, life is a hard journey that requires patience.

"Sister Fedra, I want to see my father soon, can you..."

The leader of the children spoke astonishingly, and raised his head to look expectantly at Princess Phaedra, the chief priest of Dionysus.

"No! Absolutely not!"

Princess Fedra shook her head firmly and rejected the child's dangerous idea. She pressed her hands on the young shoulders and gave her earnest advice.

"Meaningless suicide is a shameful act despised by the god Dionysus! Because it means that you are trampling on life and rejecting the test of life, and such a person only deserves to stay in hell!

And if you want to reunite with your father in the Elysee Paradise, you have to work hard to live a good life and wait until you have completed the journey of life before you can stand in front of your loved ones with your chest raised and tell the judge and relatives that you have not violated God’s teachings are not wasted! understand? "

The easy-to-understand instructions were spat out from the girl's mouth. The child listened word by word, and gradually understood. The defeat in his eyes was replaced by determination, and he couldn't help nodding heavily to the priest sister.

"Well! I will definitely take good care of my mother and sister, and not let my father and the gods down!"

Seeing the child's enlightenment, Princess Fedela couldn't help but nodded happily and touched the child's head, feeling filled with a sense of accomplishment.

Like the Minoans who have been dreaming a lot lately, I also dream.

In the dream, in addition to the father whom I longed for, there was also the mysterious, tall and handsome Lord Dionysus.

In his dreams, he often taught himself some strange truths and stories, asking her to convey them to his fellow Cretans.

Fedra followed the instructions with the intention of giving it a try, and found that after listening to these words, the depressed mental state of her companions improved significantly, and they gradually emerged from the grief and confusion, and worked hard with more courage and enthusiasm. Live your life.

The little guy who just had the idea of ​​​​death has rekindled the hope of life, which is the best example.

"Well, Lord Dionysus, you must be a very nice and handsome man!"

Seeing the compatriots on the field drinking wine, taking a nap next to each other in a drunken state, with happy smiles on their faces, the fourth princess felt quite proud and couldn't help but whisper.

At the same time, the clerk upstairs who was watching through the window couldn't help but shake his head and smile when he heard the childish talking.

Whether it is the original Orphic religion in memory or the Dionysian religion after the demonic transformation, the core of their doctrines has a common feature.

That is to persuade people to indulge rather than act recklessly. They must abide by the precepts and love their lives.

You can choose to be a hero who makes great achievements, or you can choose to be a traveler who conquers mountains and seas, or you can work at sunrise and rest at sundown, and feel the warmth of blood and family ties in an ordinary life...

No matter what the choice is, as long as you can live your life well and live your true self, there will be no distinction between high and low, and you will be worthy of the teachings of the gods.

These are the principles that Lorne taught her Dionysian priest during her dreams, and spread them to more Minoans through her mouth.

The results are also obvious. These spiritual comforts allowed the Minoans who had just experienced the pain of losing their country to quickly get over their grief and devote themselves to new construction and civilization inheritance.

At the same time, it also provided a lot of faith to Lorne, the god of wine who was often talked about by everyone.

In the dim room, a white palm opened, and a rich golden stream of light gathered in the palm, like substance.

Seeing this gratifying harvest, Lorne nodded slightly and played with the serpentine twelve-sided die in his hand with satisfaction.

It has to be said that the reason why believers can accept [God's teachings] so convincingly is thanks to the efficiency of the witchcraft goddess in the underworld.

No, in just a day or two, King Minos and the group of heroic spirits who died in the battle began to take office, set up the tribunal of Hades, and conveyed their message to the remaining people of Crete through dreams. news.

Based on this assist, the three concepts of [Hell], [Purgatory], and [Heaven] constructed by Lorne quickly became popular among people.

The people who survived became more and more convinced that everything was the result of the Lord Dionysus, and they followed the guidance of this good god seriously, abandoned their psychological burden, and loved their lives even more.

Naturally, this group of domesticated [lambs] also provided the [gods] with huge and pure power of faith in the process.

Lorne looked at the earth under his feet that was connected to Hades, and then looked up at Mount Olympus hidden among the stars. He raised the corners of his lips and gave a mocking smile.

Fear and darkness are not the only ways to awe and follow life;

Warmth and light can also make moths willingly throw themselves into the fire!

So, it’s time to update the version of faith, oldies!
