Your question What am I ready to release?

The spread

  1. The figure who set it up Ares Conflict with a purpose, and the courage to be disliked. What to avoid: A fight continued past its reason.
  2. The figure in the room Hephaestus The maker, the workshop, and value created by repeated effort. What to avoid: Craft used to avoid being seen.
  3. The figure who leaves Aphrodite Desire, beauty and the practical work of being wanted. What to avoid: Worth measured by attention received.

Under the sky over Washington, D.C., the myth begins with an old bargain, and the bargain is still being honoured by habit.

At the centre, Hephaestus, the figure of war conducted badly: a conflict continued past its purpose.

The final role is the witness, and it is the least dramatic and most useful part you could take.
