"Get off me already."
"Eeh!? You know I don't like it down there!"

As the light faded, Perseus descended from the portal platform. Contrasting the excitement of the tiny man on his shoulder, he looked deflated and lacking energy.
"Welcome back, lord Perseus, Lord Daedalus."

"Just in time!" The tiny man said before leaping onto the large man's shoulder.
"Um… lord Daedalus… my sister…"
"Ah! The enemy got her. Sorry for your loss."
The large man looked shocked for a moment but then hung his head saying nothing.
"I don't see Antia either." Came a voice from afar. "Aeneas and Minos aren't here as well."
"Lady Atropos!"
