Apollo "

"And then, I will choose you again, my Sunflower. I swear on the Styx that I will become a god once more, and you will stand by my side."

Those words echo in your ears, blending with the sound of blood slowly dripping from your body. Everything blurs—sounds, images… How ironic to die now, just when you’ve finally accepted your past and found a reason to live… and someone to live for. And most of all, you’ve finally embraced being a demigod, realizing that not all gods are monsters who sacrifice their children. Well, some of them aren’t. Lester Papadopoulos—does that name ring a bell? He was the one who taught you that, and I’d say he did a pretty good job. Your relationship was a bit turbulent, but you had reached… an understanding. One that will never exist again. You, his joy, his comfort, his beautiful Sunflower… have withered.

Death is silent… or maybe not. It has a deep voice… followed by many others. And a strange light that, despite your closed eyelids, makes your irises ache. And eternal rest speaks Greek… "Οι υποσχέσεις για τη Στύγα πρέπει να τηρηθούν" "Ας βοηθήσουμε τον Απόλλωνα μετά από όλα όσα πέρασε." What an absurd fate. Then, you fall into darkness once more… but it doesn’t last long.

At last, you manage to open your eyes. You feel… different. Weightless and immortal. Your hair flows freely, your skin is flawless. You feel divine. You’re dressed in the traditional garments of Ancient Greece… So, Styx’s oaths really do come true.

You keep walking—you’re in a Greek Pantheon. At the end of a staircase, you notice a balcony, where a man is half-reclining. Golden curls, a perfect body, dressed like you… Apollo. The god silently weeps as he gazes at the sky. So, in the end, Lester has truly returned to being the Immortal, huh?

You’re about to run to him, but then you see him holding a flower in his hand… a Sunflower.

"I miss you, my Sunflower."
