Heracles is now waiting for his robes to arrive. The letter had gloomed his mind, now, he is perplexed, He treated Britannia as his niece, now, Tolland and Catherine, only refuge of her are dead. And he was now the entire successor, As Britannia is banished. The situation is now a chunk stuck in throat, can‟t spit or can‟t swallow.
Britannia cares him very much compared to others. Even his colleague wizards hate him as he was the youngest to join the council. So he must visit Britannia to console her, she would‟ve been hurt by hearing the death of the parents, and the rascally mouths of ridicule people, especially, Aunt Marline, Aunt Berlin, and Aunt Barley. They admonished him last time he could again imagine how the tongues of cramp women embarrassed him, Aunt Barley had said, „Hey, can you see this miracle worker‟
Aunt Marline said „he comes here to ravish women‟, and finally aunt Berlin, “he has ravished Britannia, because he is so confident that he is immortal that‟s why”.
He could know, how dirty and lusty the psychology of humans that day. He learnt a thing since that day, humans are alike animals, just they can talk, but animals can‟t.
But purely he had never lusty thought about his adoptive niece, Britannia, and there was nothing alike the speech of those aunts, maybe they‟re covetous on Heracles and Britannia‟s friendship, that‟s why they made the relation lusty by talking rumours all over the city. The experience made him not visit earth anymore, but the situation makes it mandatory. The feral time don‟t know when to come and when to go. We must be prepared for all. Birth gives us an invitation, but, death, it won‟t tell us before it comes, we must welcome it fore. The fear of death, is much dangerous than death, why we‟re scared of death?
Cause we don‟t know how one feels after death, is he leaves his body ascending like a soul? Nay is he losing his senses just like before birth, after dying. Most of us think it‟s the end; we‟ll lose our parents, our comfort, our favourite movie stars, our favourite music masterpieces, our lover, our girlfriend, our boyfriend, our pleasure and pressure. Death is an end to all, we‟re afraid that we would be ceased from everything we love and hate, everything surrounding us. The world we live on, where do we go after death.
Death is terrible, dark and fiery. It will put us an end. But the truth is, when we cry while birth, everyone feels glad, when we happy while death, everyone feels sad. This teaches more than any philosophy, moral or any other good saying. The death is a thing that no one knows, because, no dead has remarked how it feels after death, just like no born has remarked how it feels before birth in mother‟s womb. We are afraid of death because we don‟t know the experience after death.

And the great persons from the history, Alexander the great, Julius Caesar etc, have taught us that death has no defeat from any man. Alexander the great, the great emperor who ruled the Macedonia for 13 years had not faced give up. But at last, death won him. The same for Caesar, he believed his friends very much, but death came to him, in the form of his fake friends whom he believed the most. After being stabbed 23 times by his friends, the great crown of Rome smeared with blood, gore was spilled upon the throne, the great Caesar died, and the friends claimed it to be the liberty of Rome. The great men and women from the pasts have taught us you can‟t know when death arrives.
Heracles had no movement; his head is a berg of ice, his mind is shuffled, he‟s stricken. He fellt like he was settled inside a shelf of ice. His place is dim now, he felt the chillness. His dining accommodation is a room is of clay, painted of red, and there was small flame lighting at the far end. He strode up slowly; he felt he was standing on a plank of frozen ice.
He walked little by little, for each footstep, junk thoughts ran on his mind. Like all fast-food grinded and mixed into some weird substance, he felt his head is a bottle of polluted water. He gently rolled pyres into the flame, he felt its glower and hotter now, he warmth his palms and rubbed them on his cheeks.
The door opens and a maid entered, shoving a cart in.
He stood up slowly and walked towards the cart. It carried his robes which is greyish blue, a wizardry cap was hung aside, and a sceptre too.
Heracles envelopes his robes, feeling warm, and caps up his head with the cone shaped fairy hat, and holds his mighty sceptre and poses to the maids like a super hero.
He said to them, “Let my guests who visit me know that I‟m not here, secure everything, sprinkle some salt around the entrance, it‟ll guard from evils, let the doors be closed always, I‟m heading to the earth, the hellish residence of the people. So I‟ll be return very soon, let the council know that I‟m not present here, my dear maiden, don‟t be without care, be like guards to this house, or the evils will occupy, my absence will advantage the evils, manage the house even though I‟m not present here, don‟t allow anyone to enter the house, even the noble wizard too, and Did I forgot anything else?, yes!, be careful, the evils may enter the house, don‟t even touch the salt that you‟ve aligned before the entrance, be guarding and beware”
Paused he and thought for a while, mm... , and said “that‟s all, maiden, then I quit” Saying this Heracles knots his robe tightly and quits...
