•• Pirithous ••

Aphrodite's words rang true, and we found the tunnel she spoke of, allowing us to slip into the underworld
My biggest fear was making our way around Cerberus, but as we trailed down to the gates of hell, he was... not there?

"Where is the monster?" Theseus asked
"I am not sure, but we should not tempt fate my friend" I said happily, rushing towards the edge of the river
We needed to pay for passage.

And then we can sneak into the castle and take Persephone.

"Seph?" I mumbled confused as she climbed back into bed beside me
Where did she go?
"I am here love. I just needed some air, some water" she said

"Are you alright?" I asked worriedly
"Just a bit sick" she brushed off as she settled down, taking my hand in hers.

She closed her eyes but I could not help but feel... guilty
Her mother is right. Hermes is right
She gets sick when she returns here, she belongs in sunlight

This... this world is too damaging to her
And she suffers it for me.

* Psyche *

I opened my eyes.
And I truly thought I was dead, lying in the fields and imaging my idea of peace as I looked up and saw my beloved
"Eros" I muttered, smiling

"Psyche... are you alright my darling?" He asked, pulling me up to sit in front of him
I held my head as it pounded
And everything rushed back to me

Opening Persephone's box, feeling so... compelled to it for some reason
And falling into a deep sleep.
But... but now I am awake.
Now...

"I am alive?" I mumbled
"Yes" Eros smiled
"And you are here" I said confused
"I healed. And I have been searching for you" he told me
"You have?" I asked surprised

"But your mother..."
"My mother is bitter. And you... you are my other half Psyche. I cannot be without you" he said
My heart swarmed, after everything... every task and every pain I have suffered through... it has led me back to him

"But I failed... your mother will never let us be toget-"
"I will worry about that. You will rest. And I will look after you" he assured
