Sunshine Challenge Prompt 1
Jul. 5th, 2021 12:12 pmPrompt 1: Hades
Hades is the god of the dead and the king of the Underworld with which his name became synonymous. Despite modern connotations of death as evil, Hades was actually more altruistically inclined in mythology; his role was often maintaining relative balance between the realms. He was often depicted as cold and stern in his judgement, and he held all of his subjects equally accountable to his laws. Above all else, Hades ensured the finality of death and that none of his subjects ever left the Underworld.
A new Sunshine challenge has been posted today, but while I was answering comments I remembered that I have two stories that will fit this first theme.
They're both set in the afterworld, so while OC are dead, they're still being written about in the story.
The first is popslash, the second bandom, and I have to admit, I still really like how the bandom one turned out.
