Your question What is costing me more than it is worth?

The spread

  1. The figure who set it up Aphrodite Desire, beauty and the practical work of being wanted. What to avoid: Worth measured by attention received.
  2. The figure in the room Artemis Independence, the forest and a life that does not need an audience. What to avoid: Solitude defended past the point of need.
  3. The figure who leaves Persephone A descent and a return, and the strange authority gained between them. What to avoid: Staying in a lower place out of habit.

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

At the centre, Artemis: the figure of the return, meaning something comes back and must be recognised rather than resisted.

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

What to do

Take the smaller portion and the longer walk.

Timing

Three weeks is the real timescale, whatever the deadline says.
