Eight years ago the war god Orion's wife Lyra fled, hiding from a fate goddess who cursed her with god fire and took her sight. She raised his twins in the mortal world, blind and burning, while he never stopped searching. When he found them by accident, he mistook his own son for a thief and nearly had him punished. Lyra threw herself over her children and took the whip. That was how he learned the bride he mourned was alive.
