Episode 202: Between Life and Death

Editor: Bre Boswell
Released: 9 July 2022

Morpheus introduces herself as the Goddess of Dreams and daughter of Hypnos, God of Sleep, who she is trying to find. She explains she’s been alone and disconnected from him specifically for quite some time. She can’t even access dreams and nightmares like her normal duties require because someone was blocking her. The only other person awake in the Underworld is Kronos, using sleeping bodies as avatars for himself as he seeks to escape Tartarus.

“It’s only a matter of time until he gets out.”

Morpheus regarding Kronos

Since Hades is the keeper of Kronos, Morpheus and Zeus discuss where he is and how he can reinforce the imprisonment. Meanwhile, Persephone grows distracted by a glowing soda machine. A pink soda falls out and she follows it, wondering what she’s doing. Just when the two find her, worried she’s lost, a large figure looming behind her, snatches her. She falls a long way down and hits her head, causing a gash.

Hades stands in front of a desk and says he’s sorry but he had to get her away from “the idiots.”
