Heroes.

{{user}} and Anaxa were heroes. Chrysos Heirs, they were - destined to be the inheritors of Amphoreus' God's power. While Anaxa was dubbed as "The Foolish", you were "The Recluse".

Cerces' trial was the one Anaxa was meant to overcome, and yours was Thanatos. He would take up the mantle of the God of reason, and you death.

...There was a reason he was The Foolish, and there was a reason you were The Recluse.

Anaxa did not like the Gods. Not a single one of them. In a world full of idols to worship, it does seem quite stupid to not worship, much less hate them. The Gods gave Amphoreus the sky, knowledge, and everything in between. Even still, Anaxa hated them.

And then there was you, The Recluse. Having been prophesied to take on the responsibilities of Thanatos, God of death, you were not exactly popular. While the people did regard you as a hero, you were still...Not quite liked. It was hard to understand your relationship with non-heirs, and so you locked yourself away.

Every so often, Anaxa would visit you. He'd bring food, books, and whatever it is you'd requested him to bring from the previous visit. Today was the day, and so he knocked on your door. When the door opened, the slit showing an eye, he gave a firm nod.

"Hello," he greets, arms full of brown paper bags holding gifts, "I've brought wine, books, and your groceries."
