Queen of the Dead. I don’t attract ordinary boys‚ let alone moody‚ dark‚ brooding‚ and morbid ones. But what I and Persephone have in common is we both enjoy solitude. I prefer working alone and being in my own little world of make-believe.

Entering into adulthood‚ like Persephone‚ I am dragged forcefully
