The silence that ensued between the siblings was deafening. Yet the intense gaze that was exchanged by the two held more meaning than words could possibly relay.
The Sky God's proposition laid out in the open– Hung high as an irresistible bait, tempting the Dark deity into taking a bite.
And then, his Goddess would be free…
Sky held his breath as he waited for his brother's answer. From where he stood, he could see the myriad of emotions that funneled themselves through Hel's eyes.
Every glint of light that reflected off of the Underworld God's gray orbs, illuminated the man's lust for power. The desire was enough to consume the whole of existence.
But Sky knew his sibling's cravings could never be satiated.
His heart drummed against his chest. Every beat represented a millisecond of eternity, waiting for Hel's decision.
