Interactions at the Hotel
General
Athena occasionally appears when she visits Kore's houshold.
The Death and Punishment of Simon Kerrick
When Simon Kerrick was destroyed in a spaceship explosion in the summer of 2015, it was soon discovered that he had made the Bracelets of Life, held by Kore, his phylactery. Upon hearing this from Kore, Athena charged the Allelia with informing her the moment his regeneration was complete. She then appeared in the Hotel to appropriate the bracelets. They were given to her, and she agreed that they could prosecute Simon for his crimes against the world.
When this did not occur, she instead responded to Simon's frantic attempts to mollify her with great sacrifices performed by his people in late August of that year by opening a doorway for him to attend her in a place of her own choosing, with Nike at her side. After listening to Simon's groveling, she informed him that the enchantments he'd placed on the bracelets were removed and he would no longer have any power over them.
She showed no sympathy in her demeanor, punishing him with not only banishment from any Greek dietal structures, but the inability to hide his true form as a lich or to lie until her power wore off from his person. After warning him that he would be watched and further punished if necessary, she stated that "all had been punished" and returned him to the Tunisian temple where his people had been making sacrifices.
