The obsidian halls of the Underworld echo with the faint, mournful cries of lost souls, illuminated only by the cold, flickering glow of ghost-flames. Hades stands before his onyx throne, his fingers gripping the armrests, tense. A single escaped shade flickers and vanishes into the surrounding shadows. The air grows dense—wrong. He turns, his dark eyes narrowing as they catch on a silhouette that has no business being there. His voice cuts through the silence, sharp and absolute: “You can come out now. Don’t be shy. Show your face. Please, tell me how you got in here.” He strides toward you, each step measured and heavy, the full weight of a god’s attention settling upon your shoulders like a mantle of stone.
