'Tell me losing everything is what saved you. Tell me you finally tasted freedom. Don't lie'
- Clementine Von Radics• Persephone •
"Well... wherever you want to be should be the main goal right now, where do you think you would get a better compromise from?" He asked
"Well here obviously" I said
Hades actually listened
If I was home, mother would lock me in my room for eternity."Then. Stay here" he said
"How Hermes?" I groaned
"Eat something" he said, and I suppose it was obvious
But if I ate something, would it not mean I would have to stay? Permanently?"I can see your mind overworking Seph" he scolded
"But what if-"
"What if, what if-Seph! What if you stay here and you end up happy? Hm? Have you thought of that? So many gods on Olympus, they are miserable, they act happy, because they have all the wealth and the status, but they are not! They are not and you could be, why would you not seize that chance?" He askedI had not thought of it that way
"I thought... I thought you were on the side of getting me back home" I said
"I am on the side of whatever makes you happiest Seph, besides like you said, I get to see you either way" he smiled.Should I do it? Determine my own fate
I had no idea how the meeting would conclude.
I could decide for myself and stay here.Or decide and... go home.

"Try to keep your head Demeter-"
"She is my daughter. Mine! She does not belong in that wasteland he calls a home" she shouted across the table at me.
Zeus sat furious. Whether it was because Demeter spoke over him or because he was just tired of both of us."I am aware that she belongs above ground-"
"Then do something about it" she screamed, standing up
"Interrupt me again and I will do something about it, sit down for the love of Olympus you disgraceful snake!" He shouted at her.Hera sat silently, seemingly unfazed by his anger.
She shut her mouth. For once
And sat back down
"Persephone is the spring goddess, her role is to bring new life, a new season of growth and peace. She does not belong in the underworld" Zeus pointed out."Maybe she does" I chimed in
"Oh please" Demeter spat, crossing her arms
"She is made for somewhere like the underworld, she has all the qualities to be a queen" I pled my case."A queen!" She shouted
"She is a young impressionable girl who you have swept up into jewels, dresses, money!" She shouted
Persephone did not care for any of it
If she truly knew anything about her daughter, she would know that.
