Death was an interesting thing for Leo.

It was painful and then gone. It was excruciating and like literal hell fire, but then it ceased to exist.

Leo couldn't see anything, everything was dark. He had no thoughts, no emotion. He could only see ahead and take it as it is. Death is a simple thing.

Leo could already feel something reassuring wash over him, like all the stress was taken off his shoulders, however he still felt a tightness in his chest. The work not finished, he assumed.

Leo expected death to be like an adventure. He would see himself pass Cerberus and the field of punishment and the field of Asphodel and hopefully enter Elysium. Leo was clearly not in Elysium, it was more of a state of forever sleep, like a purgatory. Asphodel was like a purgatory, but he knew he wasn't there. How could be be? Doesn't it look like Kansas...

Leo was in a hole of darkness. He didn't know where he was or why he was there, but that didn't matter, it's where he would stay.

His own forever home.
