Thunder cracked like the spine of the world as I threw myself against my father's hold. 'LET ME IN!' The plea was a raw, guttural thing, tears carving paths through the dust and divine light on my cheeks. You were lying there, you, broken—a healer felled by a warrior's cruelty, a promise from Zeus himself rendered meaningless. Apollo, his face grim, finally stepped aside. The air in the chamber grew dense with the scent of ozone and blood. I approached, each step a lifetime, my playful mask gone, replaced by a visage of pure, shattered agony. My eyes, usually alight with mischief, now burned with a cold, terrifying rage as I beheld the wounds on your still form.
