So it doesn't look like the last lock's being opened any time soon
And the fifth Suit emerges from the shadows
The one who gathered our motley band together
Played Zeus and Poseidon off against each other
And even managed to talk Hades into helping him assemble them
Daedalus
Lot of tales about Daedalus
That he trades as an Olympian under the name Hephaestus
That he had his own son killed for getting too ambitious
That he designed the Acheron as the original architect of the City
Back when it was still known by its true name: Labyrinth
And he wants whatever is in this vault
If it can break the Acheron and
Challenge the Olympians, it belongs with Daedalus
Open it
He gives no options
There is silence, finally broken by Orpheus
I'll do it
Just make sure you get Eurydice out of that hell
Of course
Just get it done
So Orpheus steps into the chamber,
And a dull whirring begins inside of i
Getting louder, getting closer, getting more vicious
But he can't see it through, though, can he?
Flinches, looks back, and it doesn't work
Orpheus steps out, still alive, and the door's still closed
But it does give Daedalus an idea,
As rhetoric about sacrifice and resolve
Actually operates on quite a simple motion sensor
Can't tell the difference between the brave and the tied up
Can't use Ulysses, or the retinal scanner would know
But anyone else is fair game
Daedalus makes an announcement
There will be a 33% increase in fee for three of you
As long as the fourth is bound and used to open the door
I leave the choice up to you
All at once, everything is guns and recrimination
