he slept naked

Hephaestus, Greek God of Fire, digital sculpture by Scott Eaton.

"He slept naked. He hated pyjamas, kimonos, bedroom slippers. He threw his cigarettes on the floor. He washed in icecold water like a pioneer. He laughed at comfort. He chose the hardest chair. Once, his body was so hot and dusty and the water he used so ice-cold, that evaporation took place and smoke issued from his pores. He held his steaming hands towards her, and she said, 'You are the god of fire'".
