    Summary

    “We can’t let the rain go on,” said Zagreus. He was too weak for his voice to project. He had no idea if Chaos could hear him. “So you’re saying, to break it, we have to…?”

    Chaos turned their head in his direction. Their eyes—the ones in their face—were a swirling, depthless violet.

    // Persistent rains begin to fall over the Styx. Zagreus and Thanatos strike a deal with Hades to get to the bottom of it.

    Summary

    "The god tilts his head. “I apologize, I’ve been rude. I am Zagreus, prince of the Underworld, god of blood and rebirth.” He winks at him. “Sorry you had to see me come out of the Styx like that—I’m usually much more put together. And as for why I’m helping you…” Something in his bearing shifts, changes from the casual front he was putting on to something much more serious. “That’s your mother that Hades is holding, isn’t it?”

    Percy flinches. “What do you know about my mom? Is she okay? She’s not…”

    “She’s perfectly fine.” Zagreus says in an unexpectedly reassuring tone. “I promise. She’s not a shade, she’s just being held in stasis.”

    Relief flows through him, but… “What does that have to do with why you’re helping us, though?” He’s reminded of the saying Annabeth told him after he received the pearls from Poseidon: never trust a free lunch.

    Zagreus meets his eyes. “I know a thing or two about going on an impossible quest to find one’s mother, son of Poseidon.”

    OR

    What if Zagreus emerged from the Styx in the middle of Percy's confrontation with Hades in the Lightning Thief?

    Summary

    Everything was finally right. Peace had been made between the Underworld and the Olympians. The House of Hades was in order. Thanatos and Zagreus were seeing eye-to-eye, at last, and their relationship was ripening into something deep and real and unbreakable.

    That is until the unthinkable happens, and Zagreus is attacked and reduced to little more than an empty shell. To restore him, Thanatos must go on a quest, but doing so might demand more from him than he could have ever realized. Because, before this, Thanatos had never experienced the threat of loss. After all, what could Death Incarnate possibly lose? It was a mortal experience meant for the living. Not him.

    But that was before Zagreus, and with everything on the line, if time runs out he’ll know true, unbearable loss.

    And it might break him.
