Is there anything more inadvisable than reminding a hero of their father?
Obviously, yes, but as far as a guaranteed conversational faux pas, that vaults him way up there. Cringing slightly, Robbie wouldn’t blame Hercules for being annoyed with him, in this case. He wouldn’t fault him for berating him about Stamford, either.
Heck, if he knew Herc was downplaying it as a 'ruckus', Robbie would read them both the Riot Act out of principle. An Act for Preventing Tumults and Riotous Assemblies, and for the more speedy and effectual Punishing the Rioters …
But that’s hypothetical. Reality is that the rescue party has a little more emphasis on part for it to be any relief. Well. It was nice while it lasted. “I was in Mount Wundagore when I feel through.”
Or close enough. “That was a few weeks ago. You’re the first person I’ve recognized, and there’s been a few dozen people kidnapped. It’s hard to keep track – something keeps teleporting us around. We can’t go too far from the group, or it slings us back. And sometimes, just for funskis, it sends us to the Mannequin Funhouse Castle.”
