He fell in love with a girl named Eurydice (she's such a poor girl and deserved better than Orpheus)

They both were literally such an OTP they were a great couple. Then came their wedding day. As Eurydice was walking down the aisle, a snake bites her, and she dies. Orpheus is heartbroken and adventures down to the Underworld and is like "Ayo Great Uncle Hades (he's great) you have gots to let my wifey go" and plays a great song for him and his wife Persephone (she's also a lovely gal)

Persephone and Hades were so moved by his music that they agreed to let him have his wifey back. "Only if you don't look back while leaving. Eurydice must walk behind you," says Hades. "What??????" Asks Orpheus, "Did I motherfucking stutter?" Asks Hades. "This ain't a trick??????" Asks Orpheus. "No dice sis, periodt," says Persephone. Orpheus agrees to abide by these conditions and starts walking. He don't hear any footsteps behind him, so he gets suspicious, but he continues on his merry way, making his way downtown. But, he is still incredibly suspicious. On his very last step out of the Underworld, homeboy looks back. Like an idiot. He realizes that his wife was behind him and she falls back into the Underworld and he spends the rest of his days playing music in the forest. Nowadays, he and Eurydice are walking in the Underworld by the River Styx. Sometimes she walks in front of him, sometimes she walks in back of him and he looks back at her every few minutes, and sometimes they walk together, hand and hand, talking about life. Or not life. I hope u enjoyed this installment, the end.
