    Summary

    It felt strange, to be regarded with such approval by a god Melinoë had only belatedly just met.

    Summary

    The House of Hades has been more or less set to rights- but it wasn't in the way Melinoë expected, and she still has questions.

    Summary

    For as long as she can remember, the Titan Chronos has waged war on the realms; and for as long as she can remember, Melinoe has trained to do one thing- kill him.

    Killing Time is easier said than done, however, and rumor has it he's gained control of the three Fates; a death sentence for the forces of Olympus and the Crossroads, if true.

    But as with all things the Fates have a hand in, the truth is more complicated than it may seem. Melinoe must navigate a war on three fronts to save the ones she loves most; all of Past, Present, and Future hang in the balance.

    Slightly AU, effectively a canon rewrite of Hades II starting from midgame. Eventual MAJOR spoilers for certain character backstories, game events, etc. This should be about 7 chapters, ~30k words all said and done. I have the story outlined, I know where it needs to go, I just need to get there.

    Summary

    “It’s good to see you, Melinoë.” Zagreus smiles gently. Too gently. This is a place of rest, yes, but it is also a place of necessity. 

    He doesn’t belong, Melinoë thinks, and barely keeps her expression steady. It’s an unkind thought. She has it anyway. 
    ---
    “Why are you avoiding me, grandfather?” Zagreus sets Gigaros down, gently leaning it against the wall. His voice is as soft as the Elysium grass. Too perfect. Too sweet. Too unreal. 

    It would be so much easier if Zagreus did not remember.
