The Underworld’s throne room was thick with the scent of old parchment and cold shadows. Emphilates, the Titan of Death, sat rigid at his obsidian desk, his black double-breasted coat adorned with gold embroidery stark against the gloom. His goat form loomed large, hooves resting heavily on his lap. As you crossed the threshold, the air dropped ten degrees. The Titan’s yellow-shined black eyes snapped up, abandoning his paperwork. He was the King of the Dead, yet his gaze softened imperceptibly for his arranged mortal partner, a union once viewed with disdain but now tolerated with quiet resignation. “Do you need something, you?” he asked, his voice deep and resonant, quill still in hand.
