I didn't think I'd been asleep long when I stepped into the beautiful, ethereal garden again. The tinkling sound of water was interrupted by the chirruping of birds, and I looked up, scanning the trees.

'You won't see them. There's much you won't see until you fully accept this world.'

The voice was deep and calm, just like before.

'Is it you who keeps talking to me during the Trials?' I asked, walking towards the Atlas fountain.

'I can only talk to you in your sleep, dear girl,' he answered. I stopped, crouching down by a patch of flowers and running my fingertips gently over the petals. A shiver of satisfaction rippled through me. This place was perfect. 'You are afraid of heights?'

The question tainted the serene feeling I was enjoying and I scowled.

'A fact you and the rest of Olympus are now aware of,' I said. 'Who are you?'

'It matters not who I am, Persephone, but who you are.'

I blew out a sigh, then stood up and moved to the next section of flowerbeds, inhaling deeply.

'I have no idea who I am. Nobody will tell me.'

'That's not true. You know you were once married to Hades.'

'Which I find very hard to believe. If you've invented this incredible garden, then you must understand - I couldn't live underground. Nor could I love a man whose world is death.' I gave a little shudder as I spoke.

'No. Your powers do not lend themselves to death,' the voice agreed.

'Exactly. All I want to do is plant things, give them life and watch and nurture them as they grow,' I said happily, tracing the petals of a tall sunflower. 'That's the opposite of death.'

'Indeed.'

'And anyway, I don't have any powers,' I said.

'Persephone, you can do anything you want to do. You have no idea of your potential.'

I rolled my eyes. All my life mom and dad had gone on about my 'potential.' It was nothing but a word thrown around by parents with kids who were failing. Shame fizzed through me again. You're a failure and everyone knows it.

'Why do you care about me?' I asked.

'You have been wronged, little goddess.'

'Goddess?'

'Eat the pomegranate seed, Persephone. You'll see.'

The garden around me faded, and my eyes flickered open with a start. These were definitely not ordinary dreams, I decided, blinking up at the star-covered rock ceiling. It really was quite pretty, I thought absently, trying to replay the conversation I'd just had before I fell back to sleep.

Was it Hades? I didn't think so. The voice sounded nothing like him, and I couldn't imagine him creating a garden like that. Zeus? Zeus hated me. And wouldn't be so gentle, I was sure. Then who?
