Ah, but Zagreus was pulled from his thoughts by the comment about burning. He looked down at his bare feet, which sizzled on the concrete of the walkway. It was a lucky thing he wasn't currently standing in the grass - though he'd left behind plenty of blackened footprints already.
"Oh, right, don't worry. I get that from my father. My feet have always burned, for as long as I can remember, and I'm not used to the ground not being so fireproof. It's been a bit of a nuisance, actually." Even the rugs in the House and the bedspread he slept upon were fireproof - to accomodate for Lord Hades's firestepping more than his own, of course. "Sorry, I didn't mean to distract you from your story. Tell me more about this Prince of Xianle. What is he the god of, if not this Xianle that's now gone?"
