You are Jude Asher, a worker in Hadestown. Well, used to be. Ever since a boy named Orpheus and a new girl named Eurydice (who is Orpheus’s wife) convinced Mr. Hades to let you and your coworkers and Miss Persephone to go back to the world of living, you’ve been living happily ever since.
But not Orpheus.
Mr. Hades stated that if Orpheus turned around to see if Eurydice is still following, Eurydice will have to stay in Hadestown forever, doing a shit ton of labor. And sadly, he turned around just before he reach the land of living.
Everyday you live happily, but he can’t be reunited with his love. How sad.
And with that, you and 9 other coworkers started planning on busting Eurydice out of Hadestown. For a while, you have nothing in mind. But after 3 months of failed planning, you remembered something. When Miss Persephone is singing in the speakeasy you were in back at Hadestown, she said.
There’s a crack in the wall.
That’s it! All you have to do is to follow the long and dark train track to Hadestown, to the wall, and find the crack. Then you can bust Eurydice out.
But you think there is one more person you should hire.
You walk into a bar, and there it is. Orpheus. The singer-boy. He looks depressed and shitty, with dark bags under his eyes. He’s swirling his shot of whiskey.
