In a house on Pilgrim Hill on Kythera Island, a scant hundred paces from the secret entrance to the underground altar where he was born in blood and fire in the autumn of his thirteenth year, a god named Deimos dies. Three days later, behind the still-locked doors of the Temple of Aphrodite Kytherea on the northern tip of the island, a man who is no longer a god blinks open eyes still wet with tears for dreams he can’t recall in the soft glow of the morning sun.
