"Merios?!" Thanatos's head jerks up though he cannot see everything going on in the battlefield, blinded as he still is. However, there's no mistaking his counterpart on this world. The other is slightly more confusing for Thanatos. "Mother? No--Master Nypsia."

He listens, and there's little hesitation when he replies, "The light from Kolokifi blinded me, and not everyone has a thread I can sense. Guide me. All I ask is that a bit of my energy be saved in case his thread should break." (The gods should be familiar by now with how incredibly gay Thanatos is for Zagreus as he seems to keep doing so in their presence all mission.)

Thanatos will let himself be used as a conduit for Merios and Nypsia's power whether that be for shielding or restraints, sparing no energy expense save for making sure that Zagreus can still defy death should he need to.
