Felix's words and pain have been echoing inside Demeter as she walks and she's found it hard to settle anywhere for longer than a few days. The families she passes through worry for her as normally she manages more smiles for them, but they do find small blessings in her wake. A sick child begins to do well again, a dying field has more life, a late harvest pulls through, these are things she can do.
In her wanderings, she finds herself not at a temple but an old forgotten shrine tucked into a cave that once was a home, but now holds wine and supplies.
She sits in the cool of the earth and rests her head on the smooth wall thinking of her daughter as she whispers in Greek,
"Oh my Kore, I couldn't do anything for him and his pain. The Fates gave me no way through and he kept breaking. Will he ever forgive me?"
No voice answers her back as her daughter is too far away for her touch just like Felix and Louis' world is too beyond her grasp.
