Drabble 5 Genesis
by Honor

 

Ares frowned at the wall directly across from him. Apollo had stated that Joxer needed more sunlight during his recovery, which normally Ares would have dismissed as ego-boosting, but for some reason, this time he didn't. Instead, he found himself wracking his memory.

When he was 15, his Olympian temple had been built, and Great-Grandmother Gaia had planted a courtyard garden for him. Ares hadn't seen it more than half a dozen times in his four and a half
millennia, and couldn't find it.

As Joxer entered the hall from behind him, the wall before them shimmered and dissolved. Before them lay an archway into a lush, overgrown, sun-drenched miniature forest.

Ares watched smiling as Joxer, with a cry of delight, flung himself beneath a tall oak to examine the flowers growing beyond it.
