Your wife is a real piece of work isnt she? Why would you stay with a gross old hag like her anyways? I think it’d be best for her to be taken down a notch dont you? //For Erebus for the anger meme!
Send things you think will make my muse angry!
“..Gross old hag? Taken down a notch..? No. You’re wrong. My wife is not the ‘piece of work’, it’s me. She isn’t a gross old hag, either…she’s beautiful. She is the only beauty I will acknowledge.” He tried to calm himself down – tried to FORCE himself to either fall into his own shadow or pass out, but he couldn’t. Anger now took its hold on him, and the usual sleepy expression he wore shot into RAGE.
“What do you believe could come out of ‘taking’ Nyx down a notch would accomplish? What is it you truly think would happen if that were to be done? I’LL TELL YOU. This AWFUL WORLD that mortals inhabit will be LAID TO WASTE by the darkness around them. I will make sure that I have my shadows devour them from the inside out – tear them limb from limb and throw their remains into Tartarus. Billions upon billions will suffer the consequence if anything were to befall Nyx.”
Glaring at the figure hidden by a mask, his eyes no longer held the linear cross section they once did – instead, both had opened up to resemble a star. Once this happened, parts of the world that were occupied by the sun at this hour were completely blacked out; no stars, no sun, no moon, simply an abyss that shouldn’t exist.
“The Greek Pantheon is POWERLESS before me if I were to enact my wrath. Against my darkness, there is no light that will prevail. There is a reason why darkness is feared by many; be it because you cannot see through it or there are monsters within it. Within my shadow lies a doorway straight into Tartarus, I will not hesitate to open the door and let the world see what TRUE MONSTERS are.”
Slowly, his eyes began to shut. “I do not care for the lives of mortals. I hardly care for the lives of those Gods. I do not care for my own life. But…I DO care about Nyx. If there is but one thing within my darkness that shines bright, it is the love I hold for my wife. None can take that. None WILL EVER take that. None will ‘take her down a notch’ without attempting to get through me.”
Opening his eyes again, the blackened star-shape had returned to the normal cross section in his eyes again – and the world knew light once more.
“…Pandora’s Box is full of ‘All the World’s Evils’, but I am filled with All of Creation’s Evils. Do not test me this way again.
I will bring death to all that lives if it is for her.”
