Author's Note: **Spoiler's** This story is set after the events of Acheron by Sherilyn Kenyon if you have not read the books you may want to not read this story as it does contain some information disclosed in the novel and I'd hate for you to miss out on the fun of finiding it out in the book.
Thanks,

Acheron sat alone in his room in Katoteros playing one of his many guitars, his thoughts on Soteria. As he played the simple yet elegant melody he could feel a foreign presence enter his realm. The presence did suddenly appear but rather seem the fade into Katoteros slowly. He looked up to see a man sitting quietly watching him.
From the looks of him he was over six feet tall but obviously shorter than Ash. He had short black hair, dressed in a dark turtle neck, gray pants and black shoes, and black sunglasses. The man sat back in the chair, his arms propped on the armrests looking at Ash over his interlaced fingers. The man, but he wasn’t a man, he couldn’t be, yet Ash could sense no power in this man. It was impossible, no human can transport himself into Katoteros and anyone who would bring him here wouldn’t have done so unannounced.
As Ash stopped playing the man smiled and clapped. “Very nice, Apostolos.”
“Who are you?” Ash asked.
“I am Sephiroth, The Watcher.” The man replied.
“Like in the video game?” Ash asked skeptically.
Sephiroth smiled again. “Yes. It is one of the benefits of my job to occasionally manipulate the world of man with an inside joke shared by a select few.”
“Why are you here?”
Sephiroth sat forward. “I am here to request a meeting of sorts.”
Ash’s eyes narrowed “With whom?”
“My Master.” Sephiroth replied.
Ash sighed. “That doesn’t answer my question, what is your master’s name?”
“He doesn’t have one, he is older than names. What he is though is the origin of your powers. He is to the gods what the gods are to man.”
Ash set his guitar aside. “I don’t know who you are or why you’ve come but I don’t find this amusing. It’s time for you to leave.”
Sephiroth rose and turned to leave. “Suit yourself. He was only offering you the answer you’ve been searching for since you were born,” He paused and turned back. “You do want to know why you were put through all the torture and humiliation the suffered for 11,000 years right?” The man arched his brow and grinned at Ash’s facial reaction. “I thought so. Tomorrow you will meet with a very charming fellow. A rather talkative guy really, he’s kind of a go between for our Master, his name is Metatron.”
Ash’s eyes narrowed. “If you are lying I will come for you and you will pay.”
Sephiroth smiled. “Of that I have no doubt.”
“Wait. Why am I not meeting with your master if he wishes to speak to me?”
“You can’t. No god could, because your powers would be lost and you are too important for that to be allowed. Understand that even though you are getting the answer you’ve been craving, this may just create several more questions. Be prepared.” Sephiroth smiled warmly. “It’s been a pleasure to talk to you finally. We will meet again Atlantean and I look forward to it.”
He dissolved away leaving Ash alone once more.
