Wake up

Train.

Eat breakfast

Train.

Have lunch.

Train again.

Get ready to sleep

You guessed it. Train again.

That was Lyric's new schedule, fun fact? She had no idea what she was training for! Each and every time she asked Hades he'll say;

"It's for the future, Lyric now again"

And back to training.

"Can I take a break?" She panted. Hades observed her with his calculating jet black eyes then nodded. She walked out of the training grounds feeling relieved, then she made her way to Persephone's garden knowing Hades couldn't disturb her there.

Lyric sat on a bench admiring the hyacinth's when a voice asked; "May I join you?" she looked up to see the queen of the underworld holding an undone flower crown in her hands, she wore a magnificent black gown that slightly formed a train as her gown swished the flower pattern in it did the same.

"Sure" Lyric nodded, Persephone smiled and sat next to Lyric smiling softly. "I heard what you did for your friends"

"Oh the deal with Hades? It was nothing" Lyric said tracing a finger down a Dianthus that slightly bent then stood again, the whole garden had flowers yes but what stood out the most was the Pomegranate tree, in the middle of it all, a bite from it and one would be immortal. It was Hades gift to Persephone along with the magnificent garden.

"My husband gifted me this garden, I'm sure you've heard the story" The story of how Hades kidnapped Persephone and held her until she was shown the garden he had created for her which had her astonished, but she ate a pomegranate which as the rules state; if you eat food in the underworld you'll be stuck there forever.

"Some say he kidnapped me, others say I chose to stay. Tell me Lyric Honey what story do you prefer?" Persephone asked, Lyric pondered over it for a while before answering. "I'd like to think he did kidnap you but also you fell in love and chose to stay in the underworld or else you wouldn't have changed your name"

Persephone looked surprised, "hmm not everyone knows I changed my name the ones that do know don't know my reason. I was once called Kore which meant the maiden, but once married to Hades I changed it to Persephone"

"Death bringer" Lyric realized. Persephone smiled, "perhaps I wished to impress him I still don't know how I fell in love with him, maybe you're mother foresaw it"

Lyric realized she was talking about Aphrodite, "she was probably Hades wingman" both her and Persephone laughed at the thought: Aphrodite giving Hades tips on how to woo Persephone.

"Did you like the underworld?"

Persephone tilted her head to think they shook her head, "I hated it it was gloomy and I was thinking; there is no way I am staying here nothing can make me." She plucked a tulip and added it to the crown then continued, "that was until I saw the garden, this garden. I was fascinated, he went through all of that just for me and I caught feelings for him first I thought it was ridiculous the goddess of spring marrying the god of the dead but here we are today"
