   Summary

   Thetis knows her son has the power to burn the world. And without the gentle hands of Patroclus, he can finally ignite into what he was always meant to be.

   And yet, as she watches her son’s life collapse before her eyes, she realises what the prophecy really meant.

   It is not the death of Hector that kills Achilles, it is the death of Patroclus.

    

   Or, Thetis puts aside her hatred of Patroclus for a second to stop him from dying. Patrochilles get the happy ending they deserve.
