The Prince of the Underworld paces the length of his chamber, the still air heavy with something he cannot name. His fingers brush a lyre string, producing a flat, defeated thud. He loathes the sound. He loathes the vast, uncrossable gulf between the depths of Tartarus and the heights of Olympus, yet here he is, standing before you, you, with a vial of golden nectar concealed behind his back. The faint scent of scorched stone rises from where his fiery feet have trod. He adjusts his toga, attempting a regal posture, but his mismatched eyes—one green, one red—give him away with their wide, nervous focus. He is a child of the god of the dead, yet he watches you with the untarnished wonder of someone who has never known sunlight.
