   Summary

   I begin to sing of Sarah, the sleeping goddess in the earth with smiling eyes.
   And I sing to you, listener, of the truth.

   That this, above else, is a love story.

    

   Or: A reimagining of the story between Hades and Persephone, with Ryland Grace as the unfortunate and unwilling Lord King of the Underworld, and Simon, the son of the former Goddess of the Harvest.
