#going down in history for being the first thing a hels and wels agree on!

[silverskye13]

In relation to hels or wels being a patron of Apollo, which do you think hels would be a patron of then? I want to say ares personally because hels sees some sort of glory in fighting in the arena but also a friendship(?) with those he fights there

At first I was going to disagree and say he would favor someone like Athena, but this made me do research into the differences between Athena and Ares, and while admittedly what I found was done over the course of an hour on google and not subject to peer review, it seems like a lot of the more bumbling traits given to Ares were given to him by Athenians, and Athena's prevalence over him is more tied to the fact that Athenians wrote the histories and poems, instead of the Thracians and Spartans -- the folks who revered Ares.

So I have to agree, Helsknight would probably be a follower of Ares. I mean, read this and tell me if it sounds like RnS Helsknight at all, the things he values and reveres:

"Ares, exceeding in strength, chariot-rider, golden-helmed, doughty in heart, shield-bearer, Saviour of cities, harnessed in bronze, strong of arm, unwearying, mighty with the spear, O defence of Olympus, father of warlike Victory, ally of Themis, stern governor of the rebellious, leader of righteous men, sceptred King of manliness, who whirl your fiery sphere among the planets in their sevenfold courses through the aether wherein your blazing steeds ever bear you above the third firmament of heaven; hear me, helper of men, giver of dauntless youth! Shed down a kindly ray from above upon my life, and strength of war, that I may be able to drive away bitter cowardice from my head and crush down the deceitful impulses of my soul. Restrain also the keen fury of my heart which provokes me to tread the ways of blood-curdling strife. Rather, O blessed one, give you me boldness to abide within the harmless laws of peace, avoiding strife and hatred and the violent fiends of death."

Homeric Hymn 8, to Ares

Whenever I'm feeling down, I'd often perch up on the tallest build i can find (whether that's mine or someone elses') and just sit there... Focusing on the wind and my surroundings. Its a nice stress reliever. Though, of course, i was caught doing this a few times. I find it hilarious to see the hermits without wings just yelling from below about why i was up there lmao
