"I'm so glad to hear that," Apollo said, in genuine relief, his eyes not leaving Cin for a moment. If he'd been stronger, he should have been able to tell how Brody was doing- the connection he'd created between them was like the inverse of the curse he'd placed on Marcie, and he'd been able to twist that little beauty from afar. Brody, though, had drained him badly, and while recovering, Apollo hadn't had anything leftover to give.
But if Brody had died, he felt sure he would have known, if only because Cin would have come to burn his world down. With that thought on his mind, he'd been fairly confident; whatever was happening out there in the world, Brody had survived.
