A new fate rose for Hestia with her plead to the deities who listened to her with pity-
A cold hand was carrying Hestia
Due to her miserable state she could not open her eyes

𝐍𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐲
*𝗦𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗲* I will be your servant starting today Lady Hestia, my name is irrelevant, but it's Susan, my Lady.
𝐇𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐚 𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐬
May I know why I'm appointed with a servant?
𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐧 𝐇𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐭𝐨𝐧
*𝗙𝗿𝗼𝘄𝗻* Don't worry about why you're treated differently here. I bought you from that auction last night if you remember.

𝐍𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐲
My Lady, please calm down.
𝐇𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐚 𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐬
I REFUSE TO CONTINUE THIS CONVERSATION NOR AGREE TO YOUR DEAL.
𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐧 𝐇𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐭𝐨𝐧
𝙃𝙖𝙖... Seriously, I'm afraid it's not up to you or anyone at all.
𝐇𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐚 𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐬
You are not given a choice on this matter.
𝐇𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐚 𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐬
It's my body and my will we are talking about Mister Rick.
𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐧 𝐇𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐭𝐨𝐧
Fiesty.
𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐧 𝐇𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐭𝐨𝐧
