Yes, but we also know nothing about how important the Augur is to the island, if we destroy them we might be stuck here longer without their help. I don't want us stuck here forever just because we took a chance before thinking it through ... magic is complicated shit, we might all be nerfed if the Augur dies and then we'll be stuck on an island with the undead.
Besides, [ he sighs, a chuckle straining his voice, ] while we're working out how to get home, it's not as if the company is so bad.
[She laughs, the sound pushing on giddy, despite the situation.] You don't have to convince me, darling. I'm just relieved that you're not chomping at the bit to disappear.
I was prepared to help, of course. But I'm happy without the undead on our island.
[She can't help that it's a longtime worry. Especially knowing what she does about memories once they get back home. It's hard to find someone if you can't remember that you'd meant to in the first place.]
I know. I love you.
[Just in case! She hasn't said it lately.
The soft in her voice is interrupted by a noise, and she huffs.]
Well, I think I have some company. It's rude of them to interrupt a call like this.
[It's some time later, perhaps after things have calmed down a little, that Fjord receives a video message, pre-recorded, with the message. For Your Eyes Only ♥
In it, Aphrodite gives a wink to the screen before setting it in a place where it can see. There's monsters approaching her temple, large and numerous. From a distance, Aphrodite extends a hand, a pink glow surrounds the floor around the monsters - something Fjord might recognize - before they are blasted away, easily doing over 2000 damage a piece.
A few other monsters are vanquished in the same way before things calm down and she comes back for the camera.

[ He switches to video, in his armour and cloak as he pauses in the hallway to give her a gentle smile with soft golden eyes. ]
I love you. [ He hasn't said it in a while either. ] If you need company, you know where to find us.
[ He gives her a wink and signs off, leaving her to her goddess-business of helping others at the temple. ]
