It should have killed her. He should have taken her. Instead it brought the darkness to light. And of course Hades sees it all. He knows that bringing her to his Underworld as a sacrifice would be a mistake (Hypnos would drag him to the Dream realm and keep him there for as long as he's capable). He also knows that bringing her to his Underworld to be his bride could be worse. Does he care? No. He has no intention of letting her stay in the mortal realm, therefore he has his shadows claim her. His equal. His chosen. His darkness.
