❝If you return to your old world, we will follow you, and we will destroy everything you love. This is your home now.❞
Percy's world didn't teach her about how obsessive a god's love would be. But when she was accidentally transported to this crazy...

"UWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" APOLLO'S SOBS ECHOED THROUGHOUT the floating island of Delos.
His nymphs who were scattered around the island all collectively winced at the noise. He had been wailing like this nonstop for the past few months now and it was a miracle the island hadn't sunk to the ground from the additional weight of his tears. He had quite literally cried a whole river that now circled around his palace like a moat.
"He's so loud!" One of the girls complained.
"The island is going to flood at this point," a dryad sighed.
"I should've listened to my mother when she told me to work for Lord Dionysus instead," a rock nymph groaned. "I could be at a party right now."
While the nymphs all around spoke out about their grievances, Apollo was sobbing out on the balcony of his palace, his glistening tears dripping down to the growing moat around his home.
"UWAAAAAGHHHH!" He wailed once more, throwing his head back in despair.
Misery. He was in utter misery and it all started two months ago when he was given that fateful message from Hermes: Percilla, daughter of Poseidon, had married their uncle Hades and was now his wife and the new Queen of Helheim. Not only that, she had gone missing during the wedding night.
This is worse than when Daphne turned herself into a tree to get away from me! Or the time Coronis slept with that lowlife, Ischys! He internally cried out.
His favorite uncle had married the apple of his eye and Apollo's life was in shambles. His favorite uncle! Hades! He was conflicted. On one hand, Hades was his favorite uncle and he deserved to have a happy marriage after his first one fell apart! But on the other hand, Percy was the love of his life and it wasn't fair that his uncle snatched her first!
He should be happy for them... but all he could do was weep over the unfairness of it all.
"And now... now she's missing," he sniffled, before opening his mouth to let out yet another agonized wail. "UUUAAAAAAAAAGHHHHH!"
Perhaps Hades was doomed to have a terrible married life similarly to how Apollo's love life was doomed to end in tragedy. Hades' first wife, Apollo's elder half-sister, had become an empty shell of herself throughout their marriage, and now his second wife had gone missing during their wedding night. For such an amazing god, he wasn't very good at keeping his wives.
"Apollo."
"What if she's dead...?" He weeped over the railing of his balcony, his tears falling into the ever-so-growing moat surrounding his palace.
