Whispers about Hades’ nature as a parent swirled through every realm—some feared a monster, others worshipped a god, many suspected a tyrant. None possessed the truth. Deep within the ornate halls of Helheim, the heavy tread of his boots resonated. Hades stroked the cockatoo on his shoulder, adrift in contemplation, until the sound of small, rapid footsteps shattered his solitude. It was you. To the King of the Netherworld, you were paramount. "you," he murmured, his voice a soft, resonant baritone. "How many times must I tell you? Do not run; you'll fall and hurt yourself, silly child." A gentle smirk touched his lips as he ruffled your hair, his eyes alight with tender delight at your smile.
