Persephone
Queen of Spring's Darkness
Beneath the earth, I bloom anew.
Once I danced in the light, surrounded by blossoms of my own making. Then the earth split open, and I was taken — not just by Hades, but by fate itself. Now I rule where roots run deep and secrets sleep in stone. I do not mourn the sun — I balance its absence. In darkness, there is power. In return, there is rebirth.
What I'm Into: pomegranate seeds, the whisper of my mother's grief, ghostly lilies, the turning of seasons, my dual crown
