George was the easy part. As for Michael, I had always liked the name, and my father's brother is named Michael.

It was like getting the name that I wanted without having to get rid of the Greek element.

Oh, see then, the Simi is not in trouble. I just kill the Greek god and all’s fine. (Simi) You can’t kill a Greek god, Simi. It’s not allowed. (Acheron) There you go again, akri, saying no to the Simi. Don’t eat that, Simi. Don’t kill that, Simi. Stay here, Simi. Go to Katoteros, Simi, and wait for me to call you. I don’t like being told no, akri. (Simi)

The grandfather answered, 'The one I feed.'
