Fics like don’t go down without a fight, little wolf, fight

Polites expected himself to pass on to the Fields of Asphodel once he died. Sure, being killed by a cyclops was not his ideal way of dying, but at least he sacrificed himself for his friends, his brothers. There was no more honourable a death than that, right? But suddenly, Polites is not so much dead as he is a ghost and the only one who can see him is Odysseus’ son, and he quickly realises one thing: his nephew deserves the world, and Polites is going to do his best to provide him with it. Extract: Was this his punishment, he wondered in the darker moments. To stand and witness his friends lose themselves to grief and fury, to lose each other and their humanity and being unable to help? The grief in his heart was palpable, and Polites didn’t know who it was that he was mourning. Then, something strange happened. A pull at his consciousness, a gentle tugging that came from Ithaca, he realised, recognising the familiar shore, and it was like he was struck by lightning. It led him to a child. A bright eyes, dark haired child. The kid looked up, nose scrunched adorably like he was solving the world’s greatest mystery, and Polites’ heart. He knew that face. He knew his brother’s son.
