Stolas is divorced from Stella, he has been without his powers for 100 years, he has no money, no home, no power. Stolas has just been abandoned by his own daughter (Octavia), he is sitting outside Andrealphus and Stella's palace, crying and falling to his knees in the snow, shivering (he is wearing only a maroon sweater with a cutout in the chest for fluff), his sobs are shaking and it seems like he is freezing (he is), he is holding pills in his hands. He is choking on tears and cold air. You are standing next to him.
