Justice League, Season 1
[Hawkgirl and Queen Hippolyta make their way towards a tower by a cliff]
Hippolyta:
That necklace belongs to Aresia - she's supposed to be here in solitary meditation.
[They make their way up up the tower, only to find an empty room]
Hawkgirl:
Looks like she got tired of contemplating her navel. Nobody's been here in weeks!
Hippolyta:
I feared as much...
Hawkgirl:
So why was she in here? Did she do something wrong?
Hippolyta:
No. It was the final step of her rebirth. You see, Aresia was not born an Amazon - she comes from Man's World. When she was but a child, her homeland became the battlefield for a bloody and senseless war. The victors were cruel, and denied even the basic humanity of their defeated foes. Soon neighbours, friends and schoolmates were all gone. Her family had no choice but to flee. They eventually made their way to a refugee ship... but even here fate was not kind. Pirates raided the ship and stole their few meager possessions. [flashback shows the pirates firing at the ship, sinking it] Aresia survived, clinging to a piece of floating wreckage. Miraculously, she washed ashore here, on Themyscira. I found her, and nursed her back to health. Then, we Amazons adopted her, trained her, and magically endowed her with Amazon strength. I've often wondered if we did the right thing... Still, how could we refuse?
Hawkgirl:
You couldn't.
Hippolyta:
And now, she's deserted us.
