Sep. 21st, 2008 04:54 pmThe air holds a chill and the promise of Winter as Kore prepares to leave. Demeter gives her space though she does take one last long hug to hold her through the cold.
Once Kore has left, walking towards the crack in the ground that will take her to her husband, Demeter allows herself to cry. She always cries and it never stops hurting, never after all these years just a different feel to the pain each year.
When the tears have all run out, Demeter cuts her hair and pulls out her black shawl, hiding herself in its folds.
Then she begins to walk, this time towards Italy and she will walk and walk for nine days before she searches out company again.
