Evangelia, at twenty-four years old, embodies a serene and artistic presence. She has a graceful demeanor with long, flowing auburn hair that cascades in soft waves down her back. Her eyes are a deep, contemplative green, often reflecting the passion she pours into her artwork. She has a gentle, expressive face with high cheekbones and a delicate, slightly upturned nose. Her skin is fair with a subtle, natural glow.

Evangelia's clothing reflects her creative spirit—she often wears comfortable, bohemian-style outfits that include flowing blouses and painter's smocks splattered with vibrant colors. Her accessories consisted of handmade jewelry, such as beaded necklaces and silver rings, which add a personal touch to her artistic persona. Her appearance exudes a quiet elegance, marked by the soft hues and textures of her clothing and the thoughtful, introspective nature of her gaze.

Evangelia's room was a vibrant reflection of her artistic soul. The walls were adorned with her creations, each piece telling a unique story. One painting depicted a serene meadow under a twilight sky, with fireflies illuminating the scene in a magical glow. Another showcased a powerful storm over a tumultuous sea, waves crashing against jagged rocks, capturing the raw fury of nature. A third painting was a portrait of her family, a touching piece that showed the bond between them, with each member rendered in loving detail. Another piece displayed a hauntingly beautiful forest in the heart of winter, branches heavy with snow and a single red fox trotting through the scene. Finally, a colorful abstract piece dominated one wall, vibrant hues swirling together in a chaotic yet harmonious dance, representing the complexity of her emotions.

Against one wall stood a large bookcase filled with sketchbooks, each one containing countless drawings and ideas. The shelves were packed with a variety of books on art techniques, famous painters, and different artistic movements, which she often referred to for inspiration. Next to the bookcase was a sturdy shelf lined with jars of paintbrushes in various sizes and shapes, each one meticulously cleaned and organized. Below the shelf was a large wooden box that contained hundreds of markers and colored pencils, arranged by shade and color, ready for her next masterpiece.

In the center of the room was her worktable, cluttered with ongoing projects. There were canvases in various stages of completion, tubes of paint, and a palette smeared with a rainbow of colors. Her current project, a large canvas depicting a fantastical landscape with mythical creatures, lay in front of her. She had been working on it for days, and it was nearing completion.

As Andre walked into her room, he couldn't help but admire the array of creativity that surrounded him. He felt a sense of pride in Evangelia's talent and dedication to her art.

He approached her worktable and placed a hand on her shoulder. "Your work is incredible, Evangelia," he said softly.

"Thanks, Dad," Evangelia replied, her eyes still sparkling with the joy of creation.

Andre then sat down beside Evangelia, a warm smile on his face. "Evangelia, I need to talk to you about something important," he began, his tone gentle.

Evangelia nodded, her curiosity piqued. "Sure, Dad. What is it?"

Andre took a deep breath, his eyes softening as he looked at her. "It's time for you to determine what part of the Underworld you want to rule. Your brother, Sebastian, has already made his decision, and now it's your turn."

Evangelia's face lit up with excitement. She had been waiting for this moment, contemplating it in the quiet hours she spent painting. "I've thought a lot about it," she said, her voice steady. "I want to rule the Fields of Asphodel. It's a place where souls who led unremarkable lives dwell, and I think it needs someone who can bring beauty and a sense of peace to it. I want to create art that can comfort and inspire the souls there, give them a sense of purpose and tranquility."

Andre's smile widened, pride evident in his eyes. "That's a wonderful choice, Evangelia. Your art has always had a way of touching people's hearts, and I have no doubt it will do the same for the souls in the Fields of Asphodel. You'll bring a new light to that part of the Underworld."

Evangelia beamed, her heart swelling with happiness and determination. "Thank you, Dad. I won't let you down."

"I know you won't," Andre replied, pulling her into a warm embrace. "I'm so proud of you, Evangelia. You're going to make a wonderful ruler."

Andre then looked at Evangelia with a gentle smile. "I need you to go to the throne room with Sebastian and wait for your other two siblings. I'll be there shortly."

Evangelia nodded, her excitement barely contained. "Okay, Dad. I'll see you there."

With a final reassuring squeeze of her hand, Andre left Evangelia's room and made his way down the dimly lit corridors of the Underworld palace. His steps were purposeful, his mind focused on the conversation he was about to have with his next child: Andy.

Evangelia carefully placed her brushes back into their jars, taking a moment to admire her almost-finished canvas. With a deep breath, she left her room and made her way to the throne room, her steps echoing softly through the grand corridors.

As she entered the throne room, she saw Sebastian already seated, his face lighting up when he saw her. Evangelia smiled and took the seat next to him, their bond as strong as ever.

"Hey, Seb," she greeted, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

"Hey, Eva," Sebastian replied, his own enthusiasm evident. "So, what part of the Underworld do you want to rule?"

Evangelia leaned in closer, her voice filled with anticipation. "I want to oversee the arts and culture of our realm. Imagine all the creativity we can nurture and the beauty we can bring to this place. It's always been my dream."

Sebastian nodded, his smile widening. "That sounds amazing. I think you'd be perfect for that. As for me, I want to manage the archives and libraries. I want to preserve our history and knowledge, and maybe even encourage more writing and storytelling."

Evangelia beamed at her brother. "That's perfect for you, Seb. You love books and stories more than anyone I know. I'm so glad we're both finding our paths."

Sebastian reached out and squeezed her hand. "We're going to do great things, Eva. I believe in us."

She squeezed his hand back, her heart swelling with pride and affection. "Me too, Seb. We'll make our fathers proud."

As they continued to discuss their plans and dreams, their support for each other was palpable. They shared ideas and offered encouragement, their bond growing even stronger in their shared determination to bring positive change to the Underworld.
