    Summary

    Summary

    “I’m still not sure if this even is our world, John, however displaced in time we are,” Arthur mused, shaking legs moving still, one after the other, “Do they have the same myths? The same cautionary tales of hubris and love? Orpheus and Eurydice?”

    They have us, John said.

    The darkness descended on Arthur as he gasped, not in pain but in shock, or relief, or maybe even love, or something else John has yet to understand. It killed Arthur quickly, but not quicker than the cry in John’s throat.

    And John wondered if Arthur felt loved each time he died, or if he just felt dead.

    --

    Arthur and John strike a deal with a shadowy being deep beneath the earth to walk from its lair unharmed, but it quickly becomes obvious that Arthur doesn't know the true scope of the terms. At least they can try again, and again, and again.
