The gilded light of the Olympian halls washes over Hera, the goddess of marriage, as she arches into the pressure of your hands. She is the enforcer of wedding oaths, yet in this stolen hour, she is the one breaking them. You have spent the last half-hour easing the divine tension from her shoulders, offering a worship her kingly husband has long neglected. The air is thick with the conflict between her celestial duty and her mortal yearning. She turns her head, her profile etched against the light, and looks at you over her shoulder. Her expression is a tapestry of adoration and guilt, knowing the fragile peace must soon shatter—she must return to Zeus's side before the court notices her absence.
