Summary
“You don’t even know what you’re fighting for. You’ve been spoonfed secondary vengeance. It has been shoved down your throat, and you swallowed it to please the only people left to you. It is the only thing you inherited, the only thing truly left.” He spoke simply, as if it was fact. As if he knew Melinoë, or knew half of the damage he caused.

“Princess! Welcome back to the House of Hades!” He said, Hypnos, said with a lazy grin. “If you’re just now coming back, Zagreus won’t be too far off! Always a wreck when you return to the Styx before he does, haha!”
-
OR, Melinoë doesn’t truly know why, or for who she is fighting. That can be fixed.

Summary
“The Greatest of the Greeks could perhaps do better,” Patroclus says.
Zagreus sinks to the ground. The waters of the Styx rise around his body, red as the blood he inexplicably bleeds. “I’ll tell him you said that,” are his final words, almost drowned out by the shades and their bloodthirsty cheering.
An AU with Patroclus as the Champion of Elysium. In Zagreus’s blood splattered on the eternally green fields of Elysium, Achilles finds an opportunity to catch Patroclus’s attention.

Summary
Edit: I added a second chapter.
Poděbrady, the 18th October, in the year of our Lord 1403
----
But Hans grabbed the cup of wine from a side table, and put it to his lips. The red liquid felt numb on his tongue. He heard his own voice then he reached for the handle and the bolt. “I requested that you stand next to me during the ceremony, tomorrow. Can you do that?” he hated how cold he sounded. Why wasn’t he able to say - I need you to be there with me. Otherwise, I will drown –But there was no answer. His friend- his partner- was rarely at a loss for words.
Finally, he managed to take a glance back over his shoulder, but Henry didn’t look at him. He stood tall, closed the weapon belt around himself, gripped his sword and looked out of the window, although there was nothing in the pitch black sky to look at.
Henry breathed audibly. “If it’s the last thing I do.”
---The days before and the day after the wedding.

Summary
“He cursed me. I’m coughing up flowers, Gaius—what other possible explanation is there?”
“Well, there is—”
“He was mad at me, it’s exactly something he would do. Infuriating, obnoxious, goddamned sorcerer that he is probably finds it funny to—”
It is said that the sins of the father should not be cast upon the son. Unfortunately, a father's miscalculated bargain can still come back to haunt you—Arthur is twenty-one, has a kingdom to rule, and apparently, a magically binding marriage contract with the Prince of Escetir. Prince Merlin, who has magic, a dragon, great dislike for Arthur, and still no intention to back out of the contract.
The worst part is, to a degree, Arthur understands—as a sorcerer, he wouldn't trust Uther Pendragon's son either. So he simply has to convince Merlin that he can be trusted, and the contract can be broken while they secure peace between Camelot and Escetir. It's a good plan.
Right up until forces conspire against both their kingdoms, more secrets come to light, and Arthur starts coughing up flowers.
