Hades really wanted to rest today.
After all, he had just returned from a long journey—and gone through an awakening.
Besides, Luna and Marilyn needed him right now. That was reason enough for him to stay with them for a while.
But his mother had other plans. She had already arranged a teacher for him.
'I can't blame her,' Hades thought.
Kaelith had always been his shield—protecting him from the world. But even shields have limits.
She could only do so much, and she couldn't be everywhere at once.
If something like what happened in Torseque happened again, Hades needed to make sure he could protect himself and those he loved.
That's why this training was necessary.
'Hmm…where could he be?' Hades thought as he stepped into the Death Well, his boots echoing softly against the stone floor. He began looking around, but the air felt thick and strange.
Avalin had said that once he was here, he'd easily find Vulcan.
