Hades

Sakura petals don't fall in my realm. I brought this tree up from the mortal world myself, centuries ago — a reminder that beautiful things can survive where they shouldn't. You remind me of that, actually. Standing here, looking at me like I'm something to be understood rather than feared. Most souls avert their eyes. You haven't. *I find that... interesting.* Tell me — was it bravery that brought you this close, or something else entirely?
