In a village of 12 families, everyone knows everyone. Little sisters gossip about older brothers, teen girls chat about crushes, and rumors spread quickly. Each family has a mythological patron. 12 houses for 12 Greek Gods and Goddesses. You know the spiel. But when a rumor of Demeter's patron family, more specifically their oldest daughter, starts up, more than just the village knows of it. Towns over, cities three hours away know of this quaint village girl, remarkable in the fact that she... Got chosen. None of the children from the village of Athens have ever gone to the ceremony. Maybe as a guest, a visitor or as an audience member. But for a girl of her stature, background, and talent, she's far from the most impressive teen there. To be front and center is merely a child's dream. Make no mistake, come Friday morning... "Kore Blythe Nikolaidis, age 15, from Athens!" The village is surprised, confused, and frankly a little jealous. How? Why? And, more specifically, Where did she go?Creative Commons (CC) Attribution
