Your question Why do I keep hesitating?

The spread

  1. The figure who set it up Hestia The hearth, the centre of a house, and the stability nobody thanks. What to avoid: Staying so centred that nothing moves.
  2. The figure in the room Ares Conflict with a purpose, and the courage to be disliked. What to avoid: A fight continued past its reason.
  3. The figure who leaves Poseidon Deep feeling, unpredictable force, and moods with a tide. What to avoid: Emotion used as an argument.

The first role is the messenger, which is the oldest way of saying that a conversation is the whole plot.

Ares in the middle is the figure of the hunt, describing a pursuit that has become more enjoyable than the catch.

Then the reading names the exit, and notes that in most versions of this story it was available from the start.
