And the way they were talking about dying was so matter-of-factly too.

Hmm..this got me thinking. There is a noticeable change in attitude towards Vorenus' outlook on death in this episode, and in "Son of Hades". True, he doesn't want to die stranded on the island - but he doesn't fear it and feels like he has lived an honorable life.

Now in "Son of Hades" I get the feeling that he is slightly suicidal. Not that he wants to kill himself, but that he wants to die and that his whole outlook on dying has changed dramatically. Am I making sense here?
