Prologue:
Demeter, the goddess of fertility, harvest, and sacred law, is responsible for the earth's fertility and grains. Her devoted archangel companion stood by her side, especially during the six months her daughter Persephone was trapped in the Underworld. Demeter's loneliness and grief grew as she felt disconnected from the earth, leading her to abandon the earth, causing the natural world's perpetual cycle of death and rebirth.
As Demeter's companion, the archangel stood by her side, but unbeknownst to Demeter, he harbored a secret: he was deeply in love with Persephone. Despite his devotion to Demeter, he couldn't help but feel a strong connection to the queen of the Underworld. Despite his unrequited feelings, he remained loyal to Demeter, who remained unaware of his emotions.
When Demeter discovered the archangel's secret, she was devastated. In response, she created a barrier to prevent him from seeing Persephone. The archangel felt dejected and sorrowful, eventually disobeying Demeter's orders to stay away from her daughter.
After six months, Persephone was due to visit Demeter. The archangel planned to sneak a glimpse of Persephone, but fate had other plans. He saw her and was overwhelmed with emotion, his wings spread in awe at her beauty. Persephone took the flower he offered and smiled, sending a flutter through the archangel's chest.
But their moment was short-lived, as Demeter soon discovered them together. The archangel was unable to resist Demeter's cry of anger and fell unconscious. When he regained consciousness, he found himself in Demeter's chamber, where she revealed that Hades had demanded his death after learning of his feelings for Kore.
The archangel refused to back down, determined to face his fate. However, Demeter was desperate to protect him and devised a plan to send him to the human realm. Despite his reservations, the archangel found himself falling through the gate and losing control of his wings.
As he fell through the human realm, he caught a glimpse of Demeter's tears before disappearing from sight. He landed on the ground, his wings gone, and his divine form now visible to humans.For centuries, the archangel lived as a human, mastering his new existence. However, despite his success, he felt an emptiness in his heart. He longed for something more and began to lose sight of his true identity.
As time passed, he felt a growing desire in his heart that could not be fulfilled. His fate seemed uncertain, leaving him wondering if this was another trial or curse bestowed upon him.
Will he find redemption or continue to suffer?
