I knew that Athena was faltering between following me and trusting the dreaded group, so I put out a powerful mind spell on her, knowing she would begin to doubt the power of Abram and the rest of the group and just to make sure she believed that spell, I sent her what she thought was a piece of her grandfather's scalp, when in actuality it came from one of my slacker henchmen. Athena's submission was key and I had to assure it.
