25 years….

I have been sleeping in this cave of ice for 25 years…

How could you do this to me Ares?

Is this your way to show love?

By bury my alive?

But you thought I was dead, didn't you?

Yes, I had to fool them, fool you…

You had to think that I was dead…

I had to protect my family…

Even if that meant to deceive you…

You don't know how hard it was my love…

Watching you as I was "dying"…

It tore my heart apart…

But I had no chose…

I had no chance against them…

What weapons do I have against Gods?

You put me in a ice cave Ares…

Was it your way to say that you loved me?

Why cant you just say the word?

If you did I would stay with you forever…

What are you afraid of?

I think I know…

You have never felt any love towards you in your whole life Ares…

Not from your parents…

Not from your brothers and sisters…

They never gave you a chance…

They looked at you and saw war, blood and death…

They never saw the loneliness in your eyes…

The tears frozen in your eyes…

I was blind too…

Did I hurt you when I left your side?

I did, didn't I?

I never realized that then.

I was so confused myself that I didn't see how much pain it cost you…

Please forgive me my love…

Just say the words Ares…

And I will stay…

Forever…
