I should probably offer up a prayer to a Muse. To which Muse, I'm not sure.

Calliope is the muse of epic poetry, but my tale is far from grand. It is a small fragment of a much larger story. A single line from a poem lost to time.

Clio, muse of history is not appropriate either, for though this story is real, it is not entirely true.

This work is not a tragedy, so no need for Melpomene.

Not a comedy, so no need for Thalia.

Although involving love, this is no love poem.

Though involving gods, this does not feel sacred.

Mayhap it is better off this way. I do not think they would approve of what I am about to tell.
