On April Fools' Day 2021, Pythe was called by [[Jenny Everywhere#Adventures with the Cupids|Jenny Everywhere]] after she'd encountered a member of the [[Faction of the Fooling Fish]] who'd been posing as her. Pythe flew his [[Fog Ship]] to the Fish's [[tachyonic sailing ship]] and talked the Fish's hired bodyguard, [[Lainya Vantrik]], into letting him see the Faction's higher-ups. They greeted him jovially as an old friend, and he was able to make them apologise for having gone overboard with some of their pranks this year in their rush to make the most of their newly-acquired interdimensional capabilities.

[[File:Pythagoras-858 in The Winter Quests.png|thumb|Pythagoras in the [[World Below]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Winter Quests (novel)|The Winter Quests]]'')]]In December 2021, the [[Supreme Quaestor]] called Pythe to his office in the [[C.I.I. Headquarters]] to inform him that he was to meet the goddess [[Sigyn]] in [[Finland]] in the [[Prime Universe]] to discuss her granting ownership of something she was auctioning off (the venom of the [[Wyrm of Loki]]) to the [[Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids|Crew]] rather than one of its enemies. Pythe, anticipating that Sigyn might set the onto a mythical quest to prove their worth, took Juliet with him, although he refused, at first, to fully explain the nature of the assignment. After traipsing through the snowy woods for some time, they found a [[Rune Stone]], which Pythe figured out how to use to summon the goddess. She set them the task of slaying “a certain [[Wyrm]]” in the [[World Below]] before disappearing in a flash of light. | [[File:Pythagoras-858 in The Winter Quests.png|thumb|Pythagoras in the [[World Below]].

To find their way to the rest of the Quest, they elected to lose themselves further until they found themselves in [[the Forest]]. There, they found a small waterfall, and figured out that there must be a cavern hidden behind it. There was, but, much to their dismay, it was not the entrance to the World Below; it was actually the burrow of a carnivorous [[Scandinavian Troll]], [[Tero Trollgarsson]]. Panicking, Juliet activated her stolen [[Dematerialisation Engine]], transporting herself and Pythe to the [[Interdimensional Tavern]] — but also the Troll himself. There, Juliet greeted [[Tpxszum]] as an old friend, before the three of them were invited to have a drink by an old man whom Juliet quickly recognised as [[Odin#In the Prime Universe|Odin]]. Though Juliet briefly seemed to have offended Odin, he clarified that he was in jest, before speaking a [[prophecy]] to them and advising them to keep the Troll with them throughout the rest of the adventure. He then departed, leaving them at the Tavern. | To find their way to the rest of the Quest, they elected to lose themselves further until they found themselves in [[the Forest]].
