Story Suggestion: Zag can't survive for long above ground

[☺]

So, was thinking about ways to fit the story line in with the (very good and awesomely) repetitive nature of the game. In early access, you basically die each time you "escape" the underworld. Well, what if Zag just CAN'T survive outside of the underworld but for a short time each time. And he has to decide how he spends his time each time he escapes?

It would allow you to progress many of the relationships with the Olympian gods (like Artemis :) but still require you to escape multiple times. And only by escaping multiple times can you "stay" on the overworld for longer, and by using the Pact, you can extend that time and progress the story. Maybe after escaping a certain number of times with a certain pact level, you can spend a few days above ground, giving you time to search for mom. Or maybe spend time with one of the Olympians?

I'm sure I'm way late to the party and the storyline is already pretty set (and so far it's awesome, don't get me wrong), but it would fit nicely in with the world theme and the whole "there is no escape" theme.
