Strax looked at the point Persephone had indicated, at that depth that did not even appear on the conventional maps of Tartarus, and showed no intention of turning it into a prolonged discussion. If Hades's soul was in the Bottom, then he would go to the Bottom.
Simple as that.
Maybe there were seals, ancient creatures, laws of the Underworld, or some other crap left behind by the former King of the Dead to keep intruders from reaching his essence, but Strax was already tired of hearing about places he supposedly should not enter. He looked back at Thanatos, who still kept one hand near her neck after being grabbed by him, and spoke with complete naturalness.
"Then I'm going down there to get Hades's soul."
Thanatos stared at him as though that were exactly the idiotic answer she had expected to hear.
