Hades game headcanon:

Shades can change their appearance in the underworld.

It is usually to what they looked like at different points during their life, but they can also get older too. Usually it reflects their mental state.

Zagreus' wise mentor has matured since his death, which is why he looks a bit older. When Achilles gets to Patroclus' glade in Elysium, they both look like fresh faced teenagers from Mount Pelion.

Orpheus sometimes looks at Eurydice like she hung the stars in the sky, and she'll catch a glimpse of a purple wedding tunic and a decorated himation. Eurydice will sometimes be cooking whilst Orpheus is at the House, and she might make a dish from her childhood, only to have to cup the bowl with the hands of a ten-year-old.

... just an idea (if someone wants to make a fic or expand on this, yay)

Made a design for Orpheus and Eurydice's kid!

The background music of Tartarus includes motifs from Hymn to Zagreus. Considering that the first area Zagreus has to go through to escape the house of Hades is Tartarus, it's a great musical choice.

Are we as a society ready to talk about how Orpheus and Eurydice are character foils in the game?

Orpheus is weighted down by his and Eurydices death. He’s trapped by it, unable to see past his mistakes

Eurydice, on the other-hand, is freed by her death. Although she is angry at orpheus for his screw up, she’s found peace within her solitude in Asphodel.

This in turn gives the line “don’t look back” a different meaning in Lament of Orpheus, as it shows how Eurydice refuses to “look back” on her past life due to the peace she’s discovered in death, while Orpheus ONLY chooses to look back into his mistakes.

Looking back for Orpheus would mean that he’d have to realize change could be made, even now that he’s dead

But that’s just a theory, a ga- *gets shot*
