they say blood is thicker than water but haven't they heard of ichor? ichor; the deep felling within, when you sense that something may go wrong but let's set that thought aside because you don't know what happens when the blood boils of gods and goddesses or when the hues of gold and silver yearn for solitude as they transform into something new; more precious, more expensive. falling from the slick blade of a hero, poison to any mortal. but us- humans- are wicked. if that blade falls into our palms, we'd corrupt the world by spilling ichor for our mutual misunderstandings. so we let ichor fall back into history- a curse for the reader- hoping one day that it'll fall into innocent hands so that once again, unleashed from it's chains, would come Hade's hounds coming to get you.
