[On the eve of her nineteenth birthday, Serenity does what she always does - she casts her eyes to Venus with all the innocence she can muster and begs her to take her to Earth. Not for Endymion, this time - though undoubtedly there will be a stop - but because there is news across the Moon's court, that Persephone has returned to her cousins pantheon. In Hades. Tongues are wagging all around, and soon she will be named heir apparent to her mothers own Kingdom, and she should know her distant family, shouldn't she?
She should make the effort to bring them together. Somehow, someway.
So they go to Greece, when the Moon's light is at its brightest, and she tiptoes her way to where the land meets the river Styx; where Charon waits, gloomy as usual in his blackened robes and skeletal face. If he is surprised by her, it's hard to say, but he lets her board, and then they wait, curiously, until she sees a figure run - stumble, and then crawl towards herself at the boat. ]
Ah - [she says, looking at Zagreus with her hands on the edge of the boat, peering over. ] I should have brought coins, or food!
