Synopsis

Evangelos was the killer of his girlfriend Cybele in Stonehearted. He and Cybele had travelled to Earth on vacation to Greece, stopping first in Turkey at the G.I.A. outpost. The couple had been discussing visiting Greece for a long time to compare it to their home planet and finally decided to do it.

This trip was also a part of Evangelos's plan to propose to Cybele. He wanted to ask her as they stood on Earth's Mount Olympus if she would make him the happiest man by becoming his wife. He knew they were meant to be together and couldn't wait to get down on one knee with the ring in hand and ask her to marry him.

But unknown to Evangelos, Cybele had a different route in mind for their relationship. She planned to make this vacation their farewell trip and break up with Evangelos in Greece. She had fun with him when they first got together, but her love for him had long turned as cold as stone.

Cybele accidentally found the engagement ring when she looked through Evangelos's carry-on bag for something. She was surprised that he wanted to marry her, but not in a good way. She refused to let herself be tied down to one person and laughed in Evangelos's face as she turned the ring to stone and crushed it beneath her foot.

Evangelos felt humiliated by Cybele's ridiculing. He thought she loved him and would want to marry him... But her rejection reminded him how stone-hearted she was. Wanting to shut up her laughter, Evangelos powered on his energy sabre and decapitated her without hesitation.

It wasn't until he saw Cybele's severed head rolling away that reality set in. He quickly took her head to dispose of it and left the body behind in the outpost. He hoped to go back and collect her body, but the Bureau had already discovered it when he returned.

Of course, he was caught for his crimes and taken in by the G.I.A. to get deported to Olympus, where he would face trial and be sentenced for his crime. He knows he shouldn't have let Cybele's mocking get to him, but the rejection made him see red, and he wanted her to shut up. He guesses he got his wish...
