Summary
“It’s a piece of history,” He argued and she was, as always, shocked at the rolling gravel that flowed quietly from his mouth, “We must preserve it.”
And Mae, who’d spent hours scrubbing the ghost of bloodied fingerprints from her brushes and days willing the scratch of pen to paper to drown out the sound of the Fire Princess's wailing; had looked at the child clutching ruined parchment to his chest and suddenly understood like a punch to the jaw why Prince Iroh had to be physically restrained from murdering his brother in cold blood.Or
The early days of Firelord Zuko's reign as described by his Royal Stenographer.

Summary
She understood the suddenly frantic movement of the boat when she saw Hypnos struggling to his feet across the river from a blackened circle of stone. Half of his quilted cloak had been incinerated, revealing the terrible ruin of his right arm, burnt and weeping sapphire ichor from an undeniable lightning strike.
OR
Another retelling of the myth in which Hypnos has to flee Mt. Olympus after putting Zeus to sleep on Hera's orders.

Summary
Zagreus always made stepping from the Styx look painless and elegant, what with the way he shook its blood-red waters from his hair as he strolled through an unending rain of snow-white flower petals.
Hypnos figured that practice must have made perfect as he clumsily clawed his way from its depths, weighed down by both his own Styx soaked cloak and a general inability to get his trembling legs to hold his weight.OR
In the Iilad, Hera has Hypnos put Zeus to sleep so she can go cause havoc. In the original myth, Hypnos escaped Zeus's wrath by fleeing to his mother, Nyx, for saftey. Zeus immediately backed down, unwilling to fight against the night.
In Hades, Hypnos wouldn't have that option.

Summary
The Link before him was not the Link he knew, but the delighted grin, full of teeth and bracketed by deep dimples, was exactly the same. As was the strength in the hand that grabbed the tip of his wing and all but dragged him forward until he was racing a long behind the Hero that was not the Hero he knew through the rusted remains of the kingdom’s destruction.
OR
Three times Kass played for a Hero other than the Hero of the Wild and one time he played for Link.

Summary
“Wait. That means...” Nebb gasped and squinted up at Link, ears pinned back against his head with the force of his expression, “That means you’re old!”

Summary
“May Hades strike you for your disrespect,” mutters Zagreus. He has hardly any breath left, the world dimming. He tries to reach for his spear, but his fingers merely twitch.
He didn’t intend the words as a summons. Would never, even now, knowingly call on the lord of Hades for help.
But that is who appears in a foul cloud of brimstone shot through with bright sparks.
OR: Hades may not esteem his son, but that doesn't mean he'll permit anyone else to disrespect him.
