Miracles were the work of the Demiurge, but Cardior-Rhexis was no deity. She called herself a seasonal healer. Villages would learn too late the reason why she was in constant mobility. She was the giver of life, yet the bringer of death. Lukewarm wine in a golden cup, yet lethal poison in your veins. The antidote and the toxin.

Venu loves their children, but don't make ill of the root of life lest consequence shall arise, and Venu grows new skin. Cardior-Rhexis was the bringer of healing and growth, yet she left ashes behind her wake.

32 parts Complete

A retelling of the Hades and Persephone myth, a story of fate, the struggle for power, and love found in the most unexpected places. ***** Persephone has been raised in Olympus all her life - her mother absent, her father a cruel king, with her siblings teaching her all they know. She has seen all of what the gods and goddesses do and she is sick of it. When she learns her safety is threatened by staying in Olympus, she flees to the Underworld. There she stays until she learns that her leaving has caused the world to wilt. But leaving behind her newfound friends and Lady of the Underworld is something she will not do willingly, no matter the consequences.
