    Summary

    The first time he feels the terror, he doesn't understand why. As he barely hangs onto consciousness, the soft silicon presses against his face, enveloping his nose and mouth. The spark of terror catches fire in his chest and quickly spreads across his body. It ignites a screaming inferno within his skull. He forces his eyes open. Everything is red. There's shapes above him. Pure oxygen fills his airways, stale and clinical and familiar and wrong.
    Grace's memories of his unwilling medical sedation and forced sacrifice return, vivid and violent. Later, on the journey back to save Rocky, he has night terrors. The thin lines between consciousness, unconsciousness, memory, and nightmare blur.

    Summary

    “I’ve covered every inch of the Underworld by now,” Zagreus says. “So, if there’s someone you’re looking for, I can probably help.”

    Cody smiles at him again—an awful, pained smile that cuts like the wings of a soul catcher’s butterflies—and says, “Thanks. But if I haven’t found him yet, it’s because he doesn’t want to be found.”

    Or: Zagreus finds another lost soul in Elysium, and he does what he does best.

    Summary

    Hector is ushered to Elysium after his death, but he remains haunted by the animalistic rage in the eyes of his killer, and wonders what kind of man he once was. In his search for Achilles, he encounters Patroclus instead, and through time and talking the wounds of the war begin to heal.

    Summary

    “May Hades strike you for your disrespect,” mutters Zagreus. He has hardly any breath left, the world dimming. He tries to reach for his spear, but his fingers merely twitch.

    He didn’t intend the words as a summons. Would never, even now, knowingly call on the lord of Hades for help.

    But that is who appears in a foul cloud of brimstone shot through with bright sparks.

    OR: Hades may not esteem his son, but that doesn't mean he'll permit anyone else to disrespect him.

    Summary

    Wade kicks a door open – Peter must’ve fallen asleep, because it doesn’t seem like they went very far – and then Peter’s being laid on a couch. The spring that’s always stuck out digs into Peter’s back, making him whine in the back of his throat, but Peter’s too tired to shift to the side.

    And then, very abruptly, Peter’s eyes fly open. Because Wade doesn’t have springs sticking out of his couch. Peter has springs sticking out of his couch.

    Or: Peter realizes that Wade knows where he lives, and Wade doesn't seem inclined to tell Peter how he knows.
