A Ballad for Hades Underworld king Hades is used to mistakes. He’s a she, she has a name – its Melani, and she doesn’t need Persephone to be happy, anymore. Numb and trying to return to business as usual, the Olympians send her a problem child: Orpheus. After thoroughly bumming out the upper world with his sad songs, the gods have told him to go retrieve his dead bride from Hades. His song convinces Melani to give him a chance, but when he fails she feels compelled to keep seeing him - to help him of course.
