"Find the shears..." Pittheus repeats the line from the group's prophecy as the discussion of the Fates continues, "I hope that's not talking about those that cut each person's thread of life. And that last part, sleep lightly lest plagued by strife. We'd better make sure to keep watch every night."
"It's always never about the destination, but the journey," Pittheus quotes to himself. He then focuses back to Aegore, "Can you tell us anything about the journey to Prometheus then?"
"The journey will be long and hard," He says, "For you folk, it will take you weeks to get there at the very least, no matter of how you choose to go there. You may choose land or sea, both with their own perils. Additionally, many monsters will assault you along the way."

Aster settles down in the same chair he was using earlier, though he is willing to surrender it and stand if anyone wishes to have it for their own, and continues reading the poetry where he left off. All through the night he sits there reading, and he appears to fall asleep last of the group. He is up earliest as well, however, so you must wonder whether or not he actually slept at all.

"Ignorance is bliss, and you look absolutely miserable."
Acacia unfurls her bedroll near the foot of one of the statues and flops onto it face-down, falling asleep almost immediately. She wakes up with the sunrise and notices Aster reading and her other two companions still asleep. Not wanting to bother any of them, she distracts herself by twirling whatever small objects she can find, such as her daggers and an arrow, over her fingers in increasingly elaborate patterns.
The night before, after Aegore said goodbye, he walked out the doorway, and walked down the path for awhile. The sun is down, and you all take a long rest.
As you rise in the morning, you see the dawn shining through the doorway to the temple, sunbeams glimmering off of the shining golden statue of Apollo. The morning of your journey has begun.
What do you do?

After what feels like a while to her, but is probably only a few minutes, Acacia stows her arrow and crawls over to where Zoe is sleeping. "Zoe. Wake up, we gotta go." She jostles the girl's shoulder as she speaks.
While the group has a bite to eat, Pittheus spends 10 minutes retelling a story from an age ago, inspiring the group with heroic tales (Inspiring Leader Feat - everyone gets 7 temp hp). Once everyone is ready, "I guess we should go. Fate awaits."
Zoe wakes up suddenly, and looks like she's about to stab Acacia when she woke she suddenly, but stops, "Don't scare me like that," Zoe says, quickly getting ready to go.
"Sorry," Acacia says with a sheepish grin. Standing up, she shoves the rest of her things in her bag. "Do you guys think we should travel by land or by sea? I'm personally voting for land because, um, well, I kind of don't know how to swim."
"My vote is for land too,"Says Aster, getting up from his chair. "I don't float. Even if though I won't drown, it'll be quite a bore walking all the way to land."

"Ignorance is bliss, and you look absolutely miserable."
"It seems that land is the consensus," Pittheus concedes, "I am impartial, but agree, land will probably more enjoyable. Having my feet on solid ground is much more comforting. Shall we get going then? It seems a long journey awaits us." Pittheus picks up his things and makes his way to the exit of the temple and stops to look back at the others.
You start walking out the door, and see the astonishing view from on top of this mountain. The dawn is lighting up the valley below, which is filled with olive tree groves. Birds flit around the sky, singing as the new day begins.

Acacia follows close behind, a spring in her step. Whenever they pass by flowers, she picks one or two and sticks them into her messy updo. She attempts to lure the birds and whatever other small animals she sees closer to her, but is wildly unsuccessful.
"Well let's hope it isn't one that would turn out bad for everyone," Zoe says.

Aegore clears his throat, and says, "Well, I must be off for the day. Good night, and good luck adventurers."
(We can skip forward to the morning, now. I'll post more tomorrow.)
