Summary
Artes, who once had a marriage, met Liliu for the first time at his partner’s funeral. The gods who can transform from swans can only love one god in their lifetime. Once one of them falls in love with another, their life will wither away until death. So, even though Artes sensed Liliu’s affection, he could only pretend not to notice. Artes stubbornly believed that this should be a struggle, and death, that belonged to him alone.
