Lord Plouton, Holy Kronid,

Unconquered God, Ruler of Hades, noble husband to lady Persephone, daughter of Zeus & Demeter, brother to Zeus, Poseidon, Hera, Demeter & Hestia, noble son of noble Broadbeard Kronos & Lady Rhea.

hear me, noble Lord of the Dead

You were clever enough to see through the deceit of Theseus,

I’m grateful for delivering me the opportunity You and Lady Persephone made possible for me. You hand out riches, not just material ones, but also spiritual ones.

You allowed Orpheus to cross the threshold and make his case to return Eurydike to him, pursuaded by Lady Persephone, you allowed him to take her with him on one condition.

His music soothed You and Your noble wife. A rare occasion. You are stern when needed and Your domain needed to be ruled by a stern God. You saw that. That is why the Fates chose You to be its Ruler.

Your lot was to protect the very fabric of nature itself so the dead wouldn’t run rampant on Earth. For that feat, we are forever in Your debt.

Every time a hero crossed the threshold, it was because You allowed it. Not because they got lucky. Whether it was noble Herakles, cunning Theseus, noble Aeneas, cunning Odysseos, they did because You foresaw it and allowed it. Better to allow a living temporary passage in Your domain than to have them stay forever.

The last couple of years have been challenging to say the least and offered opportunities ass well, one which benefited me greatly thanks to You and Lady Persephone. While another change is coming, whether its good or bad its yet to be determined. Only Time will tell. Only the noble Moraie and Broadbeard Kronos will know that answer.
