The Shroud family was quite famous due to their "company" S.T.Y.X. and their rule over the Underworld - after all, the members of this family were descendants of Hades himself - one of the Big Seven!

Despite their dubious but undeniable fame, finding a wife for their eldest son was a challenge, as the family had a whole list of conditions that candidates had to meet. So all offers to marry their daughters to Idia Shround in order to gain the family's favor fell through every time.

Furthermore, the family believed that each member had their own Persephone... their own soulmate... their own queen. They recognized her at first sight and to confirm it, it was enough to touche her. If she was the desired one her apperance will change that she will be looking like real Queen of the Underword.

Years passed, and Idia grew up, until he finally entered the famous Night Raven College, where he even became the prefect of his house. Despite everything, he still did not find a girlfriend, neither he nor his parents. The boy spent most of his time locked in his room, so he did not even look for a candidate, leaving it to his parents, because he believed that no one would want him anyway, and even if he did, it was not known whether his parents would agree.

One day, when Idia was close to turning 18, his parents began to worry and impatiently for him to have a partner, his Persephone, who would continue their line. For this purpose, they decided to throw a ball for unmarried girls, where he could meet many girls and maybe he would be able to recognize his Persephone. After all dance was convenient excuse to touch candidate.

However, the party meant a lot of preparations. The family's tailor had recently died, so they were looking for a new one, and Idia and Mrs. Shroud had to find themselves some clothes for the ball. To that end, much to Idia's dismay, they went to the Surface to look for a tailor.

Walking through the crowded streets, they passed various boutiques and looked at the displays to see which styles would suit their needs so they could hire a tailor. Idia wasn't interested, but at one point he stopped dead in his tracks. Behind one of the boutique's display windows stood a beautiful (color)-haired girl with a wreath of flowers in her hair, and her ornate dress, despite its many decorations, seemed to envelop her like a mist, making her look even more like a nymph or goddess.
