Fool's Flight


He was once known as Icarus, one of the boldest yet also bravest men amongst his time. Trying to fly up to the heavens and breach into the godly realm as no other had done before him whilst escaping from his imprisonment. Yet the only thing not within his calculations were the fickle nature of luck and the ever harsch destiny resting heavily upon his small shoulders as he happily explored the skies.
Ruin bears death and death brings relief.
A luxury yet not offered within Hades.
