"Every single person who encounters me finds me difficult to understand, Roxanne. Even you, sometimes. The only person who didn't...is dead." he said.

"But the other gods and just about every human I've ever met don't quite understand what it means to be the God of Fear. They can't. Most people want to be loved,, cherished and admired. Even the ones who want to be feared have no real idea what they're asking for." he said.

"I know what it really means and it doesn't bother me." he said. "But that separates me from humanity in the same way that being the God of War separates Father from the other gods, or being the God of the Underworld separates our Uncle Hades from the others." he said.
