"It is terrifying, but we've come this far. It'd be a shame to quit halfway. Even if we don't go inside, just seeing it from a distance would satisfy our curiosity, wouldn't it?" "You're right." She nodded. She, too, wanted to see what kind of place could make Supremes tremble. The two resumed their journey. The nether aircraft tore through the sky, flying west. Half a day later, a vast, wide river appeared ahead. That should be Quicksand River. It was very wide. The opposite bank wasn't even visible. The river roared as it flowed, thick with swirling sand and stone. It was likely the reason it was named Quicksand River.

Faces pressed against the liquid surface from within, mouths open in silent screams or perhaps desperate attempts to breathe. The River of Sorrows contains all grief ever experienced. To cross is to face not just your own loss but all loss throughout existence. A simple instruction, brutally difficult in execution. The Shadow Knight approached the river's edge. The water, if it could be called that, reacted to his presence, reaching tendrils toward him like a living thing seeking connection. He stepped into the flow.

Luna's eyes widened in surprise. "The Styx River?" "Do you mean the river that separates the living from the dead?" she inquired. Vesper gave a nod. "That's the one," she concluded. "It's the only way to reach the underworld." Luna became aware of a knot growing in her tummy. Her blood ran cold just thinking about crossing the River Styx. According to legend, the river was guarded by the terrible ferryman Charon, who would only ferry the souls of the dead over its black waters.

"So what's the plan?" Kael's eyes swept across the sanctuary until they settled on the underground river. "The water." Zara followed his gaze. "You think it leads somewhere?" "I think that's why Wisteria kept writing about it." He crouched beside the current. The water disappeared beneath the eastern wall through a gap just large enough for one person to crawl through. "It isn't a drain, it's another passage." Rynese peered into the darkness. "You want us to crawl in there?"

As he saw the inscription. It can't be! This is impossible, Lex mused as he mouthed the words made out of human blood: HAIL HADES. HAIL THE BRINGER OF LIGHT. HAIL THE THREE-HEADED DOG. Lex could hear screams in his head. ••• Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock. The locket in Lex's mind went. Swaying in the darkness that was his thoughts. Trying to make the swaying pendulum come to a stop.

Charr said frowning and craning his neck trying to see over the trees without luck. ‘Fafnir, any ideas?’ Rex said. “If memory serves me right, other side of these woods was a river that travelled all the way past Ragnar’s Mountains and through to a river town called Delta. See if you can hear running water or smell it. Same way before, slowly breath and force your ears to listen, your nose should follow suit.’

1 “Uncle Hector…Uncle Hetor…Don't, don't do that!” Aubrey burst into tears when standing in front of the cold river Styx, this is probably the coldest river he has ever known because this place does not contain what is called human love, human heart. This was probably the first time Aubrey had burst into tears since the day his mother left him. Aubrey pursed his lips slightly, he knelt down, tears streaming down his face as he watched Hector plunge into the river Styx to cleanse his soul. Hector will not die, but he cannot return, he will forever be imprisoned in the cold river Styx and cannot wait for the day to be reincarnated as a human; that is more painful than the life of an elf.

He swallowed his fear down to his stomach— where it was at earliest automatically altered into a boast. He swiftly managed to organise a rendezvous with his courage and convinced it to play its role. "It's now or never!" Wendell silently and obediently followed the hooded creature with a body two times bigger than his. He witnessed himself, for the first time, walk past the well-known river of Great God's. It was filled with salty waters, that tales forsay that they are the tears of ghosts that are tormented by their fear— while other tales conclude that they are the tears of sinners that died praying in an abyss of despair.

“If that’s true, then who are the last elements?” “Well, I’m pretty sure that Clurife,” she hissed the name with as much disgust as she could muster, “is the element of earth being the son of Hades. And whoever is killing these people aren’t only going after those with divine blood, they’re targeting the descendants of Poseidon.” Eliza turned and with a press of a button projected the search results onto the television screen. “Whoever it is, is trying to prevent us from obtaining the last element . . . the element of water.”

In fact, I feel warm, but not on fire like I should. “Outside the gates of Hell’s city burn all those who flee and do not belong.” My academy teachers’ words come back to haunt me as I keep running and come to a large river made of clear, crimson water. Sharp rocks sit at the bottom, and a few strange fish swim around them. Let’s hope none of them bite. The current of the river flows fast, and I don’t see a bridge in sight or anywhere I can cross. We’ll have to swim.
