Trouble always seemed to follow Thana Ren, but not like this. Never like this. So many lives lost to such a normal occurrence. But it wasn't normal.
3 children who lived such different lifes brought together by tragedy. Then the Greek Gods took an interest in them. They turned them into gards but they were no more than solders.
When I was young, I was always told that everyone loved a tragic Greek love story. Orpheus and Eurydice. Apollo and Hyacinth. Hero and Leander. Achilles and Patroclus. I had asked my mother why so many of those stories didn't have happy endings. She just gave me a grim smile and told me how the world of the gods was tricky. There was a lot about it that I didn't understand yet. That was 13 years ago.
I think I understand it now.
