Even before the scenes being played before them disappeared and left them in darkness, strands of darkness began to frantically move at the very edges of the room. Hades was thrown off by the sudden shifts.
Some part of him knew that Elias was missing, too, even though he hadn't quite noticed for sure. He just kept watching the Elias that appeared before him. It was like one of Hecate's spell, projecting something in two-dimensions instead of the three that they were actually in.
Then Kaz's question registered, and Hades frantically began to look around the room as well. The darkness at the edges of the room started moving more desperately before, but they were still under his control. When he became fully aware of their presence, he reigned them back.
"We need to find Elias," Hades said. He knew was stating the obvious, but he couldn't get the pit out of his stomach. It reminded him of the Fates, though they didn't exist outside of the religion that had created him as well. Past, present, future. He couldn't tell if Elias had met Sohiro already or if that was something for the future, but his stomach twisted at the thought of Sohiro plunging the knife into Elias.
...And at how Elias's future implied he would end up in a place like Tartarus when he someday died.
