Twisted Mythology: Hades

Hades has grown bored in the Underworld. He also wishes to learn more about the ways of mortals so he might govern them better in death. So the god of the dead leaves the Underworld for the city of Larissa in Thessaly and the home of Ixion and his demigod son, Pirithous.

Among the mortals, he finds a guardsman named Arcadius whose skill with weapons would make him an excellent soldier in the Underworld.
