Luke knelt before the portrait he had painted. He stared intently at the portrait and so to Nyx's eyes.
"This is not a temple, my lady, great Goddess. Forgive me, I wanted to show my respect to you in this way instead of building a temple," Luke said suddenly.
Then he smiled and said, "I owe you an apology. I knew you protected my lineage, that we lived on your lands and you protected our empire, that you enabled thousands of heroes to flourish on these lands, but I was ungrateful."
"Instead of worrying about things I shouldn't have worried about, I should have ignored the things I should have seen. I made a big mistake...no I have made choices," he added.
"Perhaps I will not be the person you or your daughters, three Fates and your son, Destiny, imagine me to be. Perhaps I will disappoint you greatly, but I want you to know that my faith in you… will never be broken. Even when I was ungrateful, I continued to worship you, and this is an unshakable truth."
