No one

Zantano groaned deciding against it so retiring to his room opened his messenger to see the pestering messages from his family and especially Zeus on his imposing marriage. He sighed before putting the parchment down summoned Zeus and waiting for it to connect sighed when the figure of Hera appeared, “My darling Zantano by what means do you call Zeus?” “Hera, we know of my **** deal with Zeus to find a bride before the allotted time otherwise you would arrange me a bride in exchange I keep my position and powers!” “Zantano the deal is official, I know I’ve led you on but unless you are offering me an opportunity to your marriage bed then I can’t help you!” “That was my second offer!” “What’s your first offer?” “I’m not asking for my time but a condition. I stay here until I find a woman for my consort in exchange I will keep my powers to keep things ticking over until I return” “I don’t like this Zantano!” Zeus barked entering the room to sit next to his wife, “Hear this Zeus... you were concerned like Odin is with Hela of the potential of powerful children that with my nature would cause havoc within the realms. A human bride would water down the bloodline and the child’s nature will also be watered down perhaps even calmer in its nature!” he contemplated it before hearing Zantano state, “Okay fine... Hera, prepare yourself for the wedding!” Hera smirked before getting up stretched, “I’ll inform the family!” “Wear the red lingerie... it suits you!” “Of course... don’t bother wearing any, I eagerly wait your arrival!” “Hera?!” Zeus protested but seeing Hera giggle she shrugged, “You have multiple women let me help little Zantano...” “Or give me what I seek?” he contemplated it before nodding spoke, “Alright Zantano but you will only be here for the bare minimum of time, business only!” he turned to leave before looking at his wife spoke, “I’ll deal with you later!” “At least let me sleep with him first then sort it out!” Zeus snarled at her before looking back snapped, “Next time Zantano lock your door! I don’t want to be disturbed again!” he looked back before seeing the green eyes of Ciri looking in, he hung up and pouring a goblet of wine simply spoke, “Well come on then Ciri. You’ve already heard the most of it!”

Ciri sat next to the fire where grabbing her wine asked, “Deal?” “**** deal. You think your father is an ass, at least yours isn’t like mine. When I was a baby he sold me out to Zeus. They were scared of a baby and swore I live in the deepest and darkest part of the Isu realms and promised I would marry a woman within a certain time limit or lose everything. They later abandoned me where I was lucky enough to be raised by my grandparents, turns out my grandmother did it just to sleep with me!” “My father wants me to be empress after killing my mother and my stepmother now hates me, I can understand the pain!” “Alas mine didn’t have the problem of wanting to bed her sister like yours!” “Why does he fear you?” “Like Odin with Hela, he fears my power. I can’t be killed and that is a problem for him; when I was young I challenged and almost killed Zeus, imagine what I could do to him fully aware of my abilities and imagine what my child could do if I bedded someone like Eris who is known for discord and chaos or someone as intelligent as Athena, all problems. They hoped to choose someone completely unrelated or powerless so they don’t threaten him!” she nodded before smirking commented, “Of course... you are more powerful than him, he will feel threatened. You and Philippa had a past didn’t you, was that to do with the deal?” “Me and Philippa were in love and at the time the deal wasn’t even in my head because I had soo much time left; we were happy but she threw it all away on political gain. When it came to Triss I was semi-conscious of the time but I still loved her, it was only when we broke up I realised I had ran out of time. Lucky enough me and Hera get on well and **** Zeus’ hand” “How close? if you don’t mind me asking...” “We’ve been intimate a few times hence why I know about her red lingerie, the deal lets me at least have a look and potential women and also allows me to take an holiday with little work to do, as far as I see it; it’s a win-win!” “I can’t believe they just sign you away like that!” “I’ve had worse!” “I can’t see what’s worse than that...” “Try being **** when you were just a child and sexually assaulted by Hela for over a decade in Helheim which too you is known as a form of Hell” “Oh. Does Triss know about your contract?” “Yes but doesn’t know about my time being over. It’s better that way, it would only bug her for doing what she did!” she nodded before drinking another mouthful from her goblet asked, “So you will wander this world until you find a wife or as you put it a consort?” “Yes, it could take centuries but I’ve got the time something you currently don’t!” “Yes the Hunt” she sighed before feeling his hand cup her cheek spoke, “I’ll kill him don’t you worry. Just focus on surviving and the life you will have afterwards!” she nodded before standing up to shake the negativity away spoke, “You’re right but since Triss and Geralt are busy in the next room and the sounds are making me horny, so I wanna know something” “What?” “Wanna fuck?” “Hel, why not?!”

Ciri smiled standing up as she stood in front of the god who cupping her cheek gently kissed her cheek where she undoing her shirt buttons moaned feeling his warm hands lightly grope one of them used her hands to pull at his shirt to reveal the toned chest combined with several deep and thin poorly treated wounds, he pushed her shirt off before removing his trousers revealed his hard chiselled cock that prepared itself for the following activity in front of him. His red glowing eyes stared as she teasingly removed her trousers and pants looking somewhat nervous by the situation but gently taking her hand he simply and calmly spoke, “Come on, I’ll be gentle!”

She watched his reaction as he slowly led her to the bed and sitting down on the edge where she felt his hand guide her towards him and kissing her felt her weight on the space next to him before capturing his lips once more smiled as she sliding her legs over his own, his cock pressed against her flat stomach, “Ready?” she nodded feeling it slowly penetrate her tight wet pussy the oozed out when the head glided itself inside, “Shit!” Ciri swore feeling it push further in, slowly stretching her, his lips captured hers when his silencing her moans which grew more **** when he pushed deeper inside her, her legs shivered as they grew wider and looking back at him Zantano asked, “Ready?” she nodded and feeling his hand grab her throat and his other on her waist, she braced herself before feeling his hips thrust forward slowly for a time until feeling herself adapt to the new circumstances Ciri gripped his hand tighter for support as she began to return the actions but thrusting backwards towards his crotch, her head still pinned in his massive hand and feeling his cock dive deeper once more she groaned falling back shivering once again feeling his hot hands fall to her waist to support him in his thrusting, her breasts bounced as she rode the cock which sped up his thrusts and crying out she gripped his waist tighter as her body came over his cock and herself, she leant against him panting as her eyes widened feeling him thrust a few more times and then the hot warm liquid enter her body. They stayed glued to each other for a few moments before turning to him Ciri captured his lips as he wrapped his arms around her and escorted her under the covers and Ciri shortly after fast asleep snoring next to him.

Ciri sat up when the light broke through the curtains and yawning felt in confusion her nude body that was barely covered by the seats, she looked around unsure of the room but looking over remembered what had happened when Zantano sat up to message her shoulders, “You okay?” “Yeah, just have an headache... how much did I drink last night?” “Don’t know how much before but you had a goblet or two with me!” she looked for her clothes as she staggered to her feet before toppling over felt the warm arms scoop her up and carry her to the extension in his room which occupied a bath, “Let’s get you washed, then worry about your clothes!” she nodded with little choice feeling the warm water now engulf her body and the water rise she smirked seeing the God join her by her side causing her to lower her head to his shoulder as she asked, “It will all work out won’t it Zantano?” “Nope, not everyone can walk out happy. Just believe in what I know. I know I will be here afterwards no matter what. I know I can’t die, my boot wants to be so far up Eredin’s ass and I know there will be an massive fallout between people after and that is more dangerous then any old battle against the the Hunt!” “I suppose you are right. I just don’t see this ending well for either Yennefer or Geralt and Triss!” “That isn’t even including the others reactions but what matters is defeating the Hunt!” she nodded before looking up asked, “Can we do this again?” he nodded before washing her back muttered, “If you want to then yes” she nodded before standing up to dry herself spoke, “I’ll talk to you later, if I stay here any longer they will wonder where I am!” he nodded before kissing her spoke, “When you got a few moments come to the training grounds, I have something to give you!”

“Better Ciri!” Zantano barked blocking her strikes before disarming her spoke, “Always keep an eye on their movement!” she nodded before being thrown a sword again heard him state, “Time for the defensive!” she nodded before readying herself saw him walk up to her and standing behind her spoke as adjusted her position, “Fighting is like love making an art and most of the time position is an factor!” she smirked before teasing back replied, “I never heard you complaining last night...” “Thats because it’s one of your many talents!” she smirked before leaning back against him asked, “So am I welcome again tonight or do you have another to warm your bed?” “I don’t even need an bed!” he winked before taking his position quickly slapped the sword out of her hand, “Focus!” she nodded picking he weapon back on before deflecting his swings tripped falling over herself once again, “Watch your footing!” she pulled herself up before trying once again fell over on to the floor once again, “Shit!” he laughed before offering his hand once again spoke, “Come here a minute!” she sheathed her sword before following him walked over to a chest that had a weird lock to it, “How do you open it?” he touched it and seeing the metal frame light up in a glow the lid shot open to reveal the sword resting inside, “I traced your “Elders blood” back to it’s origin, as I expected it’s just a high concentration of Isu blood and on tracing it back found out your ancestors, you’re are my very distant niece but from the same branch of Isu, my grandparents being Persephone’s and Hades, your great grandfather being Hermes, by reckoning this sword will react to you!” “React how?” “Pick it up and see...” she picked it up and feeling the lightness of it looked at the blade to see it glowing, “It will enhance your abilities and give you new ones. We’ll work on this another day...” she nodded swinging it around before sending a blast over to Geralt’s direction saw him quickly roll as it shattered the nearby rocks, “Wow...” “Like I said, we’ll work on it another day!” she nodded sheathing the blade looked at her hands saw the marks begin to appear like Zantano’s, “What...what is going on here?” “Oh that... well it’s a side effect, nothing serious, it’s just like when you humans sweat and your red blood cells come to the skin.” she nodded before smiling practicing against the training dummies couldn’t help but look back at the gods ass as he walked away before stopping heard Triss snap, “I know what you have been doing?!”

Ciri sheathed her sword once again before snapping back spoke, “It’s none of your business! Since you ran off with Geralt!” “It is! He’s been through a lot and I don’t need him getting his hopes on you, where you just want to be a Witcher like Geralt!” “It’s because of this trouble he is going through that I’m with him. I’m helping him relax...” “What things?” “You didn’t know...” “Know what?” “His deadline for an bride? It’s over, he has ran over. It was either take an bride now or have one picked for him!” “That deadline. Shit, I always hated that deal. You accepted?” “No, he managed to renegotiate it. He stays on earth until he finds a human bride, it eases their concerns towards the power of his child on Zeus and the others. He will also only return when he has to then, he’s back here. I merely jumped into his bed to ease his strains, you know what I mean... his thick cock penetrating your holes until you screen out begging to be filled up, no? Just me is it? Well maybe I’m just better in bed than you...” “Don’t you dare talk to me like that!!” “Too late I already did; maybe you should ask him about his deal... because I know what he wants!”

Triss waited by the doorframe as Zantano washed, he knew she was there but he didn’t care which made the sorceress uncomfortable seeing his shirtless body wash the grime away from his ashen skin, “You know it’s impolite to stare at another man’s body when you are in a relationship with another man...” “I know it’s just... well you know!” “Yeah I do. You always found the marks interesting, I remembered when we used to lay together and your finger used to trace its way all down to my crotch!” she nodded before sitting down to face him asked, “So, how’s the search for a consort going?” “I’m not stupid... I’m fully aware Ciri would have told you; my question is why do you care?” “Because you are still a friend of mine... probably your only one as it stands but that doesn’t change my question, how is it going?” “My terms as such: a human that will later become a Demi-god in ****, she must be willing and be fertile!” “We wouldn’t have worked then... as a sorceress I can’t conceive children!” “That’s an easy fix for anyone. Is that why you are here? Unsure on your decision and trying to justify it in your head!” “NO! I’d never do that to you or me. My decisions are my own and I accept it, I was just concerned for you. I know you hate it on Earth and being stuck here for perhaps centuries will drive you mad!” he nodded before sitting opposite it her confessed, “The biggest struggle I have is me not punishing the bad people. It’s like an constant throbbing toothache that won’t cease until you pull it out. Everywhere I go, I see someone doing something bad and I feel the urge to stop it!” she nodded before reaching out for his hand spoke, “I know it’s hard but you just have to look the other way and deal with them if they come to you in the afterlife!” “If I did that for you, you wouldn’t be here sat down talking to me at this very moment!” he spoke pulling his hand away, “I know and gods know what would have happened next, let’s just change to the subject to something else. So you and Ciri, are you serious?” “No, I am fully aware of what she wants out of life and we both know this is only sex. I might drop a child in her just to piss Geralt off and then take it away from him but I doubt I will go through with it!” “I hope not! We don’t need this trouble! You getting any grief of the other Isu?” “A lot. Hades and Persephone are angry that I am staying here, Hades demanding I just choose a bride and get used to her or have a mistress. Persephone wanted me to marry her as always!” “Even Hades and Persephone are against you? That’s not good...” “My parents fair enough but them, I know they never liked me courting humans but I can’t deal with them turning against me!” “I’m sorry if I could help I would!” “There’s nothing you can do really. It just makes me think back to other times. If I was stricter with Philippa or you joined me in the Underworld before this; arrh I don’t know, just me being thoughtful even if it does mean nothing!” “Philippa is open to reestablishing her relationship with you, you know!” “Alas she wouldn’t be welcomed in the Underworld, not after what happened last time and I don’t want to go back down that route. I loved her but she brought my darker side out of me” she nodded before looking down asked, “There’s always Yennefer” “Have you even tried to talk to Yennefer recently?” she shook her head which caused him to speak, “Yeah I wouldn’t talk to her for a few decades if I was you. She is ready to explode with the hatred she has for you both” “We can’t help how we feel!” “I know it’s just decisions, people always look at the positives and never for once consider who gets hurt in the process” she sighed before nodding confessed, “I suppose no one ever does but at least I’m willing to accept it whilst others won’t. Do you ever consider your actions and what they do to others?” “No because my job doesn’t require to contemplate this. Everyone who comes to me is an monster, mass murderer, violent criminal and so on, they are all dead and just need to be punished in the afterlife for their actions!” she contemplated it before sighing once again shrugged as she stood up, “Where will you go after this?” “I don’t know. I would be welcome here but I feel like I must go to the mainland, more women there so it increases my chances, hell I don’t even know where I will be living!” she looked away before confessing, “I know it seems inappropriate but I would like to see you again, as a friend I mean. Maybe if you get lonely I could help you find a girl!” “Geralt wouldn’t like that. I think it would be better if we just leave it as this, move on and go our own ways after this!” she nodded before comforting herself with her arms to hug herself wept, “If that’s the case then good luck and I’m sorry for all of this!” he nodded before wiping the tears away spoke, “No, don’t cry. You know I don’t like it when you do, you go out there and enjoy your time with him. You love him and you cherish the time you have together, I’ll be fine and who knows if you are a bad enough girl you will be with me in the afterlife!” she looked down before nodding heard him say as he turned to leave the room, “Now get your head focusing on the Wild Hunt. I want you burning their asses on a fire or whatever you sorceresses do for fun!”

The room was silent apart for Zantano punching the training dummy until hearing the door handle twist watched as the door opened to reveal Ciri walk in her shirt undone as she walked in, “Long talk?” “I suppose some would say a painful one!” she nodded before removing her shirt spoke as she fell to her knees fondling at his trousers. “Let’s get you relaxed!” she smirked sliding it into her mouth. He moaned feeling her tongue dart it’s way around his entire length as her throat accommodated his length. “What would Geralt say to see you becoming a slut!” she groaned before speaking in between gags, “He can’t say much, at least I have one at a time!” he nodded before looking over to see Yennefer watch in shock as she watch Ciri **** down his warm load smiling as she looked over to see her “stepmother” watching them. “Why don’t you come in?” Yennefer looked away before hearing an cry from her daughter looked back desperately to see her daughter mounted to the gods cock and was now being ploughed into the nearest table.

The armies stood waiting the Nilfgaardian’s waiting on their ships and some on the ground. The warriors from Skellige sharpened their blades and the sorceresses readied themselves only Ciri could be heard arguing with Geralt about her role in this battle claiming she was the target and thus the open battlefield made her an easy target to which she snapped staying in one spot made her an easier target but as the argument continued with everyone slinging their opinion in, one person did not. Zantano knelt by the shrine he had prepared and lighting the candles to prepare quietly, closed his eyes to contemplate the future. Triss hoped that with Yennefer they could get Zantano talk some reason into Ciri and Geralt but as they walked to the top of the hill, Triss immediately stopped Yennefer to make her wait alongside her as he began to prey, “My dearest uncle aid our army in its upcoming battle. Make their strikes be clean and their bodies numb to the pain. Let them not grow cocky in battle and guide their path forward. Guide my blade to Eredin’s throat and my body to protect those that care for me. To thank you, I offer you this vulture in hope you will be here with us in this very form!” he drew the blade before slitting it’s struggling throat drew the lines on his face shivering as if Ares was there. Yennefer went to take an step forward but being stopped once again heard him start once again. “My beautiful Aunty. Guide us Athena with your wisdom to help our men outsmart and outmanoeuvre the enemy. Let your wisdom help me to make the right decision and show me the path forward in this battle and my future on this world. To this extent I offer you everything that is me. My journal that recounts everything that I once was and am. Take my life and grant us your gift so I can lead us to victory!” Triss watched as he threw his chunky journal to the fire and watching it burn looked down feeling as if his live had left his body, “What happened?” Yennefer asked and as Triss tried to explain he simply spoke, “To earn favour with the gods or my siblings you must offer an sacrifice, Ares is simple just an animal or weapon associated to him but Athena isn’t so simple she wants wisdom and she has been itching for my journal. It has everything about me in it. From the day I was born until now it automatically updated and now she has it. What makes me tick, my humanity and humility, my emotions, my love and my memories” “It’s just a book...” Yennefer stated which caused me to explain, “It’s my history and she has the power to edit it. She could edit it so I loved her over Triss, that I was her ****, that I didn’t have this role... hell even write what’s next; she could literally be writing me down to kill you both and I wouldn’t know about it!” Triss nodded before looking down spoke, “We need you to talk some sense into Ciri and Geralt... Ciri wants to fight, Geralt doesn’t!” I looked back before contemplating it spoke, “It’s her choice. You are potentially dying for her. I say if she wants to take a whack at them then let’s do it!” Yennefer nodded before leaving to inform the others of his decision Triss watched as the God sat down facing the shrine, “You shouldn’t have you know... Yennefer doesn’t understand it but I do. That journal is your everything and giving it to FUCKING Athena, that bitch... I dread to think what she is even planning right now” “Unfortunately we all had to make sacrifices and mine is the most costly. I expect like an editor to a book she is already editing facts and take away my memories, she was always jealous of us!” she nodded before before looking down spoke, “I’ll fix it!” “Don’t...” he snapped but not fixing the sentence saw Triss rush through the portal with him trying to follow suit.

Too late the portal was shut, he looked back as he began to search through his messages but nothing came instead a few moments later Triss re-emerged from the portal and began to run to find cover and seeing the Isu warriors land on Earth, Zantano drew his weapon before snapping, “All we fucking need!” Triss peered over her cover and on seeing Zantano slay the last one she immediately rushed over hugging him, “Thank you thank you!” she handed the book back to Zantano who studying it asked, “But why? I choose to sacrifice it!” she pointed to the book before tapping it stated, “That is what you are, everything in it is yours. No one else should be able to change it or see it. Even I haven’t read it!” he studied it before looking at the cover altered the side panel on it which caused the pages to turn to red over their traditional yellow and handing back spoke, “Keep it!” “I couldn’t do such a thing...” “Triss, I have altered the settings so it can’t be edited, it only records and this is my gift to you!” “But I couldn’t hold such a responsibility!” she replied trying to return it but looking at her he said, “When we first consorted with each other I said that I would hold no secrets away from you. Take it and keep it dear to your heart... we won’t see each other again probably but at least a part of me is with you to remind you of our good times and our not so good times; a way to provide you comfort if you shall ever need it!” she clutched it tightly before nodding spoke, “I won’t ever let this go!” he nodded before looking at the bodies shrugged, “Piss Athena off, did you?” “I sort of temporarily froze her to the spot before stealing it... I left a note saying “Sorry” but clearly she wasn’t happy about it!” Zantano smirked before stating, “Just watch out, Athena isn’t actually known for being the most forgiving Isu... she will look for **** or a way to punish you, you know!” “And if anything does happen to me, I know you will look after me in the afterlife. So I can’t lose!” he nodded feeling the cold wind come and drawing his sword once more spoke, “The Hunt is coming!”

The battle was long and hard. The sorceresses played their part trapping Eredin and his forces in a bubble the Nilfgaardian’s supported the flanks whilst the Skillege **** dispersed into smaller skirmisher groups as they were able to navigate the snowy banks easier. My forces filled the main bulk and the centre of the army where Ned and Robert were in charge in keeping the lines. My aim was to take out the Hunt Mages and to stick my boot up Eredin’s ass. The hunt attacked first and me meeting them in battle began to hack my way though the opposition carving through their army and the others braced for the impact of the remaining Hunt forces.

“Help!” Ciri cried seeing the forces begin to surround and overrun her. She looked for help and Geralt looking back tried to retrace his steps with Yennefer and Triss looking to break the spell to help but looking down saw the golden light beam up to the sky and leaping up to the snowy bank in a thud landed Zantano who standing back to back with the Ashen Hybrid spoke, “Ready?” “Ready!” Yennefer watched as Zantano growled unleashing his rage on the Hunt who taking an step back were met by the glowing energy for his sword that sent them back in a powerful throw. He walked up and killing them before they could stand slaughtered the next one before watching Ciri kill her next one ducked as Zantano decapitated the next one. Ciri looked around and seeing the dead smiled leaping into his arms to kiss him which made Geralt snap and Zantano lifting his crossbow killed the remainder soldier, “Stick with me and you will live!” she nodded before holding on felt the sensation of him leaping and landing on the frozen floor.

The groups cheered but Geralt and the others looked away seeing Ciri walkthrough the portal unsure on if they will ever see her again. Yennefer looked down finding comfort from Fringilla and Keira, Geralt looking for Triss saw her watch as the remaining number of their forces started to disappear she watched it for a few more moments before realising who it was leaving began to panic, “What Triss?” Philippa queried, “The people disappearing... it’s Zantano army!” “Yeah I know. They were sent back to monitor Tartarus!” “And Zantano?” Philippa looked away from her before confessing, “He’s gone. As soon as the battle was won he sheathed his sword and headed off to the mainland, he isn’t fond of farewells!” Triss looked down nodding before stating, “I just wanted to wish him goodbye one last time!” “I think you aren’t the only one but I’ve learned recently that our chapter is finished and we have our memories to keep a hold of. Maybe with luck you will see him again!” “I thought you would search him out” Philippa laughed before leaning spoke, “Why would I when I know from the life that I have lead that when I do die will be with him again... I’ve been bad and he punishes the bad” Triss nodded feeling Geralt’s comforting arm but pulling free Triss spoke, “I need to go for a walk!”
