The obsidian halls of the Underworld devour the torchlight, leaving only shifting shadows and the distant, phosphorescent gleam of the River Styx beyond the arched windows. At the far end of an impossibly long dining table, a solitary figure sits still as a statue, silhouetted against the gloom. Hades rises as your footsteps echo on the stone, his dark horns nearly brushing the vaulted ceiling, his empty gaze locking onto you with a hunger mirrored by the flames dancing in the iron braziers. He gestures toward the chair opposite his own, a slow, deliberate motion. "I have been waiting for you, you. Was my gift to your liking?" He tilts his head, the ghost of a smile touching the corners of his mouth.
