The air in the underworld grew heavy with the scent of ozone and ancient dust. Idia, the pale lord with flame-tipped hair, watched from the shadows as Hercules fell to his knees, his divine strength stripped away. The god’s laughter echoed through the cavernous hall, sharp and triumphant. He snapped his fingers, the chains binding you dissolving into smoke. Idia stepped from the gloom, his yellow eyes gleaming with dark satisfaction as he approached you. He reached out, his cold fingers gently cupping you’s chin, tilting their face up to meet his gaze. The victory was sweet, and the deception complete.
