“Tell Rhea that I will love her even in the ether. Tell my children that their faces are the images I held on to when I died. That I always loved them. When you're ready.. when you need me...come find me... in our cell.
"Father," I whisper brokenly. "Don't go!"
The trace of his smile is the last thing I see before he pitches himself into the flames.

I am currently falling from driving off a cliff 😭😭

“I, Hades, King of the Underworld and god of death, bind mysel! to you, Lyra Keres. All of me. For eternity”
"I, Lyra Keres, Queen of the Underworld and goddess of things still unrevealed, bind myself to you. Give myselt to you. Vow myself to you, Hades. All of me, For eternity..." She swallows. "Even should we be parted?"

😍😍

“I want more. I want your heart. Your soul. Your fate. Your future. AIl of it.”
“Only in exchange for you. All of you for all of me."
“Done."

😍😍

I groan and drop my forehead to her shoulder. "Paradise." I whisper. “And madness."
Maybe that's why I love her so much. Because she reflects my kingdom-heavens and hells— and my kingdom reflects me.
She is my mirror.
Made for me.
And me alone.

😍😍

"Thank you."
"Thank you?" My voice is a rasp now. "For what?"
"All of it," she says. "For waiting. For falling in loxe with me. For trusting me. Enduring me. All of it."
"I don't want your thanks, Lyra,' I snarl.
But the way she always does when she should fear me, she smiles instead.
"What do you want, then?"
Everything. "Your fucking eternity?"

😍😍

Ok I get that Boone got hurt and they have a thing going on, but Persephone needs to calm the f down rn. Like it’s not Lyra’s fault that she went into the past and had no control when she would return. And it’s not her fault that Boone went into Zeus’ lock without her. AND YET PERSEPHONE BLAMES LYRA FOR BOONE INJURIES AND BANNED HER FROM BEING IN THE ROOM WITH HIM!!!!!!!

"You worried someone might want to hit me with a bolt of lightning while I'm in your arms?"
"Talk like that could win a few hearts." I whisper. Not mine, thouch. gave it away a long time ago

Little does he know 🤭🤭🤭

I pause to look over my shoulder, and Cronos waves me on. So I take that final step.
Just as the terrible silence grips me, I think I hear him say, "I trust you, daughter."

YESSS KRONOS IS LYRA DAD AND LYRA IS KRONOS DAUGHTER AHHHHHHH 😍😍😍

"I always loved being a father. I miss it. Miss my children sorely. I guess. I just... wanted to give you those happy memories that you craved and remember myself what it felt like-being a father with his daughter-even for a second."

He’s definitely her father now 😍😍

"You know, I always imagined doing those things- the sea lions the ice cream at the whatf—with my father. I never in a million years would have imagined that it would eventually be with you"
“I know. You told me once about wanting to do those things, so I ..." He glances away like he's embarrassed.

That’s her father 😍😍
