Author's Notes: I don't know why I had put this as my third choice, when I really like the myth of Persephone and it's a really awesome request. Luckily, I got it, even though I didn't follow it very closely; but I really tried to stick to the main themes. I hope it works!
Thanks to 'El' for their quick beta, and to the mods of the fest for their hard work, especially [livejournal.com profile] plotting_pen and [livejournal.com profile] westkitsune for their patience and encouragement. The title and quotes are taken from a poem I found online; it and any other notes are listed in at the end of the fic.

WOW!!!

This is like seven years too late, but GOD, it was an awesome read!!

The concept of Hades and Persefone was beautifully introduced with that quote and developed smoothly along the fic.
Also, I think what I liked best were the secondary characters, LUCIUS WAS AWESOME! I think it was a very true and faithful portrayal of him... Also Pansy and her lines, I loved her. And Harry, and Narcissa, and Andromeda... haah everyone, really.

As for Draco, I really felt for him. Going from belonging to Voldy, to Snape (the King of night and his consort of darkness??? OMG I'm flailing so hard hahaha), his reluctance, his sheer slytherinnes at handling everything, it was a great Draco to read, haha. I liked how you can tell he's matured but is still an inssufferable brat, also very true to his canon-self.

I would have liked to have a little bit more inside (insight? insightful? I don't know how to express myself here, sorry but I'm not a native english speaker) to his POV, but he's awesome nontheless, so.

I hope you read this, and know that I will go and stalk your lj now, hahah. The fandom needs more plotty snaco!!!
