Thanatos
The God of death, the God everyone loathes, and yet the one everyone longs for at the end, the God they cling too, seek comfort in, the God all the others forget about and yet... Olympus itself would fall without him.
He's lonely... under...

"No my lord forgive me, you must have been mistaken-" "I have reason to believe that Thanatos is conducting a relationship with your daughter" I interrupted Hypnos Who shut his eyes briefly at my words, in almost... defeat.
"What?" Hades asked simply "I believe Thanatos and Macaria are sneaking around, meeting with each other in secret" I went on He stood for a moment "Get out" he said "Sire I-" "Get out Moros, now" he said.
I shut my mouth, bowed to him, and left.

This was not good This was far from good "Hypnos, is there any truth in what Moros just said?" He asked calmly. So calmly I wondered if this was even Hades "I could not possibly know what my brother gets up to in his own tim-"
"Hypnos, tell me the truth, or so help me I will throw you in Tartarus! Is he meeting with my daughter in private?" He demanded loudly "I... I uh..." "Hades dear what are you doing?" Persephone asked, entering the hall from what I can only assume was a result of Hades' shouting.
"Moros thinks Thanatos and Macaria are in some sort of relationship" He said "Ah, I see" she said, standing beside him He stared at me for a moment, before his gaze fell on her "What do you mean? You see?" He asked
She looked up, seemingly broken from her thoughts "Hm?" She hummed He sighed "Do you know? Is there truth in it?" He asked She was silent... a suffocating silence
"Hades dear, you did not honestly think it was not going to happen?" She asked "Oh my..." he cut himself off. Head falling into his hands as he paced away
"Hypnos you can reschedule your meeting?" Persephone suggested, giving me the escape I so desperately wanted I nodded quickly, bowing my goodbye before hastily leaving I needed to find Thanatos. Before Hades does

"So they are? He... he is tainting our daughter. Our youngest daughter?!" He shouted angrily "It is not exactly like that-" "What is it like then? What is it like as you seem to know all about it. How long has it been going on?" He asked I took a breath, trying to conceive any way to explain this without upsetting him.
"I found out when I got back" I started, causing him to begin pacing in anger again "But she loves him, we have to accept that" I said It was her decision, her choice who she spent her days with.
