It's gonna be around 50,000 words. I have already written 40,000, I guess. So updates should be regular ...unless I have a freak out and think it's shit. Reviews are, of course, very much appreciated :)

AU STARTS: In my story, while Harry tries to find the diadem, Ron and Hermione split up. Ron runs down to the chamber and Hermione tries to find the
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.
