"I'm always glad to help ease your heart, Sir. And knowing the bond that you and Patroclus share...I think not even the Fates could ever keep you both apart forever. Besides, I think they rather do prefer the two of you together! One of their minor prophecies spoke of your reunion, after all."

Not that Zagreus had needed predictions from the Fated List of Minor Prophecies to want to help Achilles and Patroclus, of course. But it was always better to have the Fates on your side.

"You know I don't think you've ever told me much about Scyros before," Zagreus says, thinking back on the many conversations they've had. But that was a time of Achilles's life he hadn't really heard much about.
