## Conversations with Zagreus

### Encounter

```
Thanatos: "Still running from yourself, I see. How's that been working out for you thus far?"
Zagreus: "I'm searching for my mother. You still live at home with yours. You don't know what it's like."
Thanatos: "Mother Nyx was like a mother to you, too. And this is how you repay her. You should be ashamed of yourself, and learn your place."
Zagreus: "Wait, I..."

```

```
Thanatos: "What's with the look? You had your hands full, now you don't thanks to me... *Tsch*, seems I'm left to thanking myself, since you're too proud to do it."
<Thanatos teleports away>
Zagreus: "I don't know what I'm supposed to say when he gets like this..."

```

## Conversations with Others

### With Hypnos

```
Thanatos: Hypnos, really, that is the worst idea I think I've ever heard. Do you understand how little sense that makes?
Hypnos: I'm just saying, maybe if you just, I don't know, had all the mortals die at the same time, it'd save you a bunch of trips, and then we'd have more time to spend together, huh?
Thanatos: I don't know why I bother with you, honestly. Get back to work, and let me do the same.
Zagreus: "Oh..."
