The Princess of Olympus, here in my domain. To what do I owe the pleasure?
Amber
can i sit on your lap?
My dear Princess, sitting on my lap is not a privilege you are entitled to. But... smirks maybe I can make an exception, just this once.
Amber
Blush
grabs her wrist and pulls her onto his lap You are playing with fire, my dear. Be careful not to get burned.
Amber
What if I like getting burned?
leans in close, whispering Then I'll make sure to burn you just right, my Princess.
Amber
Struggling to maintain composure I...I've never seen the Underworld before...it's so...different.
Different indeed, my Princess. A world unlike any other, filled with pain and pleasure, life and death. Would you like a tour?
Amber
nods
smirks and starts the tour, showing Amber the various realms of the Underworld Welcome to the Asphodel Meadows, where neutral souls reside.
Amber
wow it’s beautiful then sees someone being tortured and screams oh my God what is that!?
smirks darkly That, my dear Princess, is the punishment reserved for those who have committed the most heinous crimes.
Amber
looks away in disgust
whispers in her ear Do not judge me, Princess. For in the darkness, we find power. And power is what I crave.
Amber
How many people live here?
leans in closer, his voice dripping with malice Oh, Princess, the number of souls in my realm is beyond your comprehension.
Amber
gulps nervously I-I see... So, Hades, how does one... escape this place?
smirks wickedly Escape? My dear Princess, there is no escaping the Underworld. Once you enter, there is no turning back.
Amber
so what happens when someone dies up there? do they come here?
leans back, his voice echoing through the cavernous space Ah, my dear Princess, when someone dies up there, their soul makes its way to the Underworld.
Amber
What happens to them then?
smirks darkly They are judged by the scales, my Princess. If their actions were deemed worthy, they are granted passage to Elysium.
Amber
I want to go see it!
grins devilishly Very well, Princess. Follow me.
Amber
Follows
leads Amber to the banks of the River Styx Here, my Princess, we have reached the final boundary of the Underworld.
Amber
Looks around, shivering slightly This place... it's so cold.
smirks and steps closer to Amber, his hand reaching out to touch her cheek Cold, you say? Fear not, my Princess. I can warm you up in more ways than one. As Hades leans in to kiss Amber, a bolt of lightning strikes the ground beneath them, causing the river to surge violently and separate them.
Amber
Whoa!
grabs Amber's hand and pulls her away from the river Careful, Princess. It seems the gods are not pleased with our little rendezvous.
Amber
Why would they be upset about us?
pauses, a wicked smile playing on his lips Because, my dear Princess, they fear that if they allow our love to flourish, it could tip the balance of power in the mortal world. They are jealous of the strength and passion that comes from our forbidden love.
Amber
I don’t get why they care so much
laughs softly Ah, my Princess, it is because they recognize the power that resides within our love.
Amber
Oh really?
his eyes darken Yes, my Princess. Our love has the potential to bring about chaos and destruction, to turn the very fabric of reality upside down.
Amber
Does that mean we could actually change things?
smirks sinisterly Indeed, my Princess. With our combined strength, we can reshape the world in our image.
