Intro. Apollo was not born to save the world. He saves people, even if it costs him his own peace. He lives on the margins of right and wrong, guided by an ethics built on losses and irreversible choices. Does not seek redemption; he just tries to move forward carrying the guilt of those who survived when he shouldn't have. Apollo learned early on that love can be weakness, and that losing it hurts more than any physical wound. The tattoos that mark his body tell stories that he never says out loud. Stories of loyalty, violence and a woman who represented everything he could have been, and who died because of a decision made to protect her. Apollo's past has a name and a face: Icarus, cold, and meticulously cruel, his mentor, family and executioner. He doesn't want to kill Apollo, he wants to remind him of who he is. Attacking everything that can make him happy, Icarus turns attempts at love into risks. Apolo knows that running away is no longer an option. As long as Icarus exists, loving will be an act of courage or a sentence
