After having told Andromeda about his past life and reincarnation Daedalus felt somewhat better. Due to this he had also decided that he would start paying more attention to Hephaestus, this was because in a way Daedalus was like a disciple of the god.
So a few nights after he had told Andromeda about everything Daedalus could be seen in his crafting room with Richard. Richard was saying something to which Daedalus said "We will ask Hephaestus for guidance, he is in a way our master, and us his disciples."
Richard sighed but started helping Daedalus to craft a small shrine like structure to the god.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
A few minutes later Daedalus could be seen kneeling lightly Infront of the shrine as he spoke "Hephaestus, I have made this shrine in your honour. I hope that though I may have taken my time to do this, you would still speak to me as I have a few questions."
After he finished talking Richard did and said almost the same except that he had tried to talk with Hephaestus far sooner than Daedalus.
As he finished speaking both he and Daedalus who where kneeling became completely still as the world around them seemed to stop. Then a rift of sorts opened in front of them. Hephaestus then stepped out and said to himself "Now to make a cool entrance, ah I know I will sit on the couch and act all high and mighty. Hahahahahah this is a great plan!"
And so he did as he said, sitting on the couch he took a few minutes to find the proper 'above all frown'. He then unpaused time and watched to his suprise as Daedalus noticed his presence almost immediately.
Daedalus stood up and looked over to his favourite couch only to see Hephaestus sitting their with a frown on his face that basically screamed 'acting all high and mighty'. Richard who stood up after Daedalus immediately bowed his head after seeing the god. Hephaestus could see the amusement in Daedalus eyes so he sighed and said "To think you could see through my act, Daedalus."
Daedalus just smiled and said "I have been getting in to politics lately."
Hephaestus nodded at this and said "You should experiment more with your crafts."
Daedalus nodded again then Hephaestus turned to Richard and said "Maybe you could teach Richard here about what you have learned over the years, he is quite the talent."
Daedalus smiled at this and said "I don't know if I have the time however if he is anything like me he has at least a basic understanding of the various crafts. In that case I will be more than willing to have my friend Grite help him to learn things like enchanting, runes and formations."
Richard who had stopped bowing a few moments ago now looked enthralled by the idea of learning enchanting, runes and formations. Daedalus however continued saying "And if she is alright with it Andromeda can give him some lessons when she is teach Reginn and Rose alchemy."
