Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 storyline has been going strong. Epic Games has kicked the narrative into high gear with the introduction of characters like Megalo Don and The Wanderer. With such a lore-heavy season, players can't help but wish for a live event that ties it all together and sets the stage for Chapter 5 Season 4. Fortunately for them, recent in-game clues might be hinting at exactly that.

These clues were brought forward by Rezztro, a prominent figure in the Fortnite storyline space. The content creator highlighted a specific dialogue from the Persephone NPC that players can only get by interacting with her as Megalo Don, the primary antagonist of Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3.

Here's the dialogue from Persephone:

"Sail that Leviathan down the River Styx, mortal. See what happens."

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 live event might have been hinted at by Persephone NPC

While the line spoken by Persephone is quite simple in nature, it reveals how she feels about Megalo Don and the Wasteland Warriors. Given how this ruthless faction of warriors came to the Island out of nowhere and usurped power in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3, it is clear that the Greek Queen of the Underworld is not very fond of them.

This can be seen in Persephone's tone while talking to Megalo Don, almost like she is daring him to take his ship to the River Styx.

However, the question is why would Persephone want Megalo Don's ship wreaking havoc and making its way to the River Styx? According to Rezztro, the answer to this lies in a small detail in the launch trailer for Chapter 5 Season 2.

In the trailer opening, Hope can be seen travelling through the River Styx along with other characters. A spirit from the Stygian Waters then emerges to drag one of the boat paddles away with it.

This could be the reason why Persephone is challenging Megalo Don to bring his ship to the River Styx in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3. She may be hoping that the spirits of the dead in the river will be able to take the Leviathan down with them, bringing Megalo Don down in the process.

This could explain why Epic Games decided to keep POIs like The Underworld and Grim Gate in the game even after Chapter 5 Season 2, potentially using them as the stage for the Chapter 5 Season 3 live event.

However, it is important to remember that this article is largely based on speculation and theories. There is always a chance that the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 dialogue between Persephone and Megalo Don was just another Easter egg thrown in by Epic Games.
