Miles starts to call the police, but Lore stops him. Police mean Lore’s name would go on file for anyone to find her, and bringing Athena to a hospital would put the goddess at the mercy of the hunters. Reluctantly, Lore brings Athena inside, feeling “helpless for the first time in years” (37). Lore sends Miles to get supplies to clean the mess and examines Athena. The wound was done by a professional, which means at least one group of hunters searches for the goddess.
Athena is one of the original Greek gods, having survived 211 Agons. Lore informs the goddess that she’s out of the hunt and won’t be pulled back in. Her entire family was murdered as a result of the Agon, making Lore the last of the House of Perseus.
When Miles returns, Lore cleans the blood in front of the brownstone and then leaves a scattered trail of Athena’s scent throughout the city in hopes it will delay the hunters. When she returns to the townhouse, Athena confesses she sought out Lore for protection. Her sister, Artemis, betrayed her, and Athena heard about Lore’s family, which puts Lore in the unique position of being knowledgeable and trained but outside the hunt.
