Helen had to go back and start all over, which to Mae, only served as a source of greater embarrassment. After Helen ensured every recess had been covered she rose and produced a clean white robe. "You are now, and till the day you choose, the Oracle of Pythia."
Mae smiled a bit ruefully,” What was that gunk anyway?"
"It was a condom", Helen said, "A man can not touch you down their without your permission, if one tries they are then condemned to die."
Mae only nodded her agreement. Helen then departed leaving Mae to her own devices. Mae wandered the paths just outside Pythia. She walked along keeping careful attention of her surroundings. A maenad was especially trained to be aware of her environment and threats held within. So when the Python bolted out from behind a rock, Mae was quite surprised.
"What isss my missstresss doing down out of the sssafty of her home", the snake inquired with rasp hisses. Mae held such hate towards the Python that though he now served her, she felt he would betray her in an instant.
"Walking", Mae snapped.
"Missstresss ssshould be sssafe at home", the Python said as he positioned his body to prevent her from continuing her walk.
"Out of my way, you serve me now", Mae's ire was starting to rise, soon she would be lost to her rage.
"I don't ssserve, I protect. The mountain isssn't sssafe for the missstresss", the Python rose high over Mae, as if he was trying to force his will on her.
Begrudged, Mae turned back up the path. She then stopped and turned around," I know what you do to girls before you eat them." Mae dearly hoped that would hurt the Python.
Indeed the snake seemed taken aback. Then he lowered his head so his one good eye was looking right at Mae," I know what you do to girlsss after you eat them", with only a small shift in a words to what she'd said, the Python had struck back with mighty blow. Anger boiled through Mae's blood as she stomped back to Pythia.

Mae settled into the job of Oracle easily. She could do almost whatever she wanted in her free time. This included fighting with the various priests, each with different martial disciplines. Mae had rules though. One she couldn't leave without permission. Two was she must remain a virgin. It seemed the act of sex was not so much taboo as was that the act of summoning the stork would result in the loss of all her abilities.
Not that Mae ever would have a chance, Helen was almost always around her. The only times she was left to her own devices was when Nature called. The priests had set up booths so people could talk to nature in private. Mae mostly talked about things like her past and silly little things the humans of Xanth tended to do. Nature was quite impatient and would often hang up, even when Mae was in the middle of a good story.
A month went by, the place say very few visitors, even with the Good Magician Humphrey still missing. No one risked the Maenads or the Python.
At months end the priests began packing. "Helen what is going on here?”
"During the Oracle's Stork Cycle, we take a break. But since you are a nymph and don't have one, we all decided just to keep the old schedule. You should do something, like make friends in the nearby village."
Mae nodded as she has become accustomed to doing. Perhaps she would leave the stuffy place and see the world. She grinned to herself as she left the confines of Pythia. Mae was going to hunt down that Grey and perhaps get to taste him again. With giddy joy she raced to where instincts led her. All the while with a sleek, shadowy figure slithering behind her.
