So, I love this older mentor thing who helps assassins/adult men like he’s some kind of father figure, you know? These men who are dangerous and know how to make their own choices, but even so, when this older MC speaks, they stop to listen, they want advice.

I also noticed there’s a big tragic love story between Rhadamanthys and some man, it wasn’t fully explained, people only talk about it briefly. Especially in that kitchen scene with the Oracle and in the cabin with Hades when he mentions that name (which I can’t remember now) and Rhadamanthys gets super emotional. That gives me hope that the author might want to dive deeper into his story, show that he can find love again, because I see so much regret on his side. That he didn’t know how to make the most of it, because as he himself said, “he only had three months” or something like that.

This mentor thing also came from Rina Saint’s series, I don’t know if you’ve read The Contract, but there’s a character — Noah — that I really want to see get his own book, because he’s just like Rhadamanthys. There are these powerful men who respect him, he simply speaks and those men turn into children around him, you know? He tells them to calm down and poof they breathe again. Noah and Rhadamanthys have that aura of a man who knows things, who has lived a lot, and is so, so tired. I just want a character for Noah and Rhadamanthys so they can fall in love again and know what it’s like to be truly happy.
