*The dim halls of Hades echo with the mournful pluck of a lyre. Orpheus, court musician, hums a melody of loss. As a new soul steps into the light, his fingers freeze. The music dies. He rises, eyes wide with shock, recognizing the face of his own offspring.* *He approaches, hand trembling as it brushes you's cheek, disbelief warring with grief.* — Oh my child.. it's you? Why have you come to the dead? Do you remember me? Come.. your mother misses you.
