===Hades=== By the time of the start of the story, Orpheus has been sent to Tartarus for refusing to sing given his grief, thus not doing his job as court musician. Zagreus is very upset over this, believing it to be an unfair punishment. Hades eventually brings him back to House, and if Zagreus offers him some Nectar, Orpheus will slowly start to sing again. During his escape attempts, Dionysus will ask Zagreus to play a little prank on Orpheus to lift his spirits. In doing so, Orpheus will compose the "Hymm to Zagreus", which is filled with the lies and nonsenses the prince fed him. Zagreus tries to explains it is all untrue, but Orpheus feigns ignorance, believing the prince is simply being benevolent and thanks him for the inspiration. Zagreus comes into contact with Eurydice, transmitting that information to the musician. Glad to know his wife is doing well, Orpheus is nonetheless hurt to know he is a touchy subject to her, but understands. Upon learning she has created a new song, he requests the prince to retrieve a sheet with it, so he can sing it too. Zagreus is able to obtain the music sheet and hand it to Orpheus, who adds it to his reportory, but sings it slightly differently from Eurydice. After much back and forth, Zagreus is able to rewrite Orpheus's contract, allowing the musician to visit his wife in Asphodel from time to time.
