“Phoibos [Apollon], of you the swan too sings in clear tone from its wings as it alights on the bank beside the eddying river Peneios; and of you the bard with his clear-toned lyre and sweet verse ever sings in first place and last.  So I salute you, lord, and seek your favor with my singing.”

— Homer, Hymn 21. To Apollo in Homeric Hymns. Homeric Apocrypha. Lives of Homer, LCL Vol. 496, transl. Martin L. West.

The Warrior of Light and his Loves

A Kyler & Polycule Playlist

Everlasting Light by The Black Keys | The Warrior of Light, Shard of Azem

Let me be your everlasting light The sun when there is none I'm a shepherd for you And I'll guide you through Let me be your everlasting light

Let me be your everlasting light I'll hold and never scold In me you can confide When no one's by your side Let me be your everlasting light

Oh baby, can't you see? I'm shining just for you Loneliness is over Dark days are through They're through

Let me be your everlasting light A train going 'way from pain Love is the coal That makes this train roll Let me be your everlasting light...

This came on shuffle one day when I had Brainwyrms and I went "I'm a shepherd for you" -> "Shepherd to the stars in the dark" and then all the sun and light imagery clicked. This is now, to me, Azem singing through the WoL, living on through them, and loving being the WoL. What remains of Apollôn adores being Kyler. And even his shard, who is also Kyler's Reaper Avatar...

I had not expected the Apollo vs Poseidon in the Dionysiaca to go so hard:

"And now a fiery chief stood up to the champion of the deep: Phoibos, to fight with Poseidon. He set shaft on string, and also lifted a brand of Delphic fir in each hand doubledextrous, to use fire against the surging sweep of water, and arrows against the trident. Fiery lance and watery arrows crashed together: while Phoibos defended his home the upper air rattled a thunderclap for a battlesong; the stormy trumpet of the sea brayed in the ears of Phoibos — a broadbeard Triton boomed with his own proper conch, like a man half-finished, from the loins down a greeny fish — the Nereids shouted the battlecry — Arabian Nereus pushed up out of the sea and bellowed, shaking his trident."

(Book 36, Trans. William Henry Denham Rouse )

Apollo is fighting Poseidon standing on Delos - an island - completely surrounded by Poseidon's domain. He's ambidextrous apparently and is using fire against Poseidon's water. There's thunder in the skies sounding like a battle song (thanks Zeus) and the roar of the waves is tearing Apollo's ears (thanks Triton). Poseidon has his entire gang cheering for him.

Like don't get me wrong, Apollo peacefully refusing to fight Poseidon in the Iliad is good on its own, but their fight in Dionysiaca is so so fun to visualise.
