Persephone's Pomegranate
The pomegranate was already on her plate when Persephone sat down. The table was carved from a single slab of black stone, polished smooth by centuries of use. It reflected everything dimly, like water at night. Her plate held the usual offerings: grey bread dusted with ash, a glass of clear wine that smelled faintly metallic, and slices of fruit so pale they looked bleached by grief.

The Brightness
By the time Cara reached her locker, the light had already arrived. It was rising through the floor in a slow, deliberate sheet, a pale brightness that behaved less like illumination and more like weather. Not harsh. Not blinding. Just there, pressing gently upward, filling the hallway from the ground like something patient and inevitable. It softened the edges of everything it touched. Lockers. Shoes. The thin layer of dust that never quite disappeared, no matter how often the cleaners came through.

The School System
The school system does not fail loudly. It fails politely. It still rings its bells, prints its worksheets, uploads its timetables and holds its assemblies about well-being and future pathways. From the outside, it looks functional. Even progressive. New acronyms appear every few years. New frameworks. New strategic plans featuring pastel logos and mission statements about innovation.
