Her story begins where one would least likely expect it to.
In the dying black flower fields. Her father had only allowed her this far, to play with Cerberus, but never past Styx. Her mother was gone 6 months a year, and during that time her pap would take her on adventures. Past Styx to the upper world, but only at night. Her papa always told her stories of young heroes who saved their home one time. Or how they rode past the blue water above to lands beyond what they could see, of course, she had never seen the sea.
During the day she'd try to look for photos in her papa's large black castle. Running around the black staircases and whirling in the kitchen while others cooked. People laughed at her and with her when she skipped around singing songs her mother taught her, and when her mother finally returned she always brought life with her. Everyone smiled more and her papa even kissed her. When her mother was there, everything was perfect, until one day, when she was 12, things started to change.
She knew she'd been hidden away her whole life and that her papa wanted to show her daytime, but her mother insisted it was a bad idea.
And she knew why, her powers had grown stronger, everything she touched. Died.
So her papa made special metal gloves for her and her mother finally agreed.
She would get to see daytime.
