“Persephone to Hades
You are the kindest thing that ever happened to me, even if that is not how our tale is told.
When everyone else told me i was destined to be a forgotten nymph that nutured flowers and turn meadows gold,
you saw that the ichor that resides in me demanded its own throne. You showed me
how a love like ours can turn even the darkest, coldest realm into the happiest of homes.”
