Pandora's Prison
By Landon Schwausch
Prologue
Wisdom. Beauty. Clothing. Speech. These were the gifts that the gods gave to me when Hephaestus forged me into life. But they also gave me a curse: curiosity.
Of course, these gifts and the curse were given to all humans and have been ever since. But only once has the curse of curiosity had such long-lasting effects.
For the gods…who am I kidding, it was always Zeus, the meddlesome trickster. He gave my husband Epimetheus and I a gift as well. It was a jar. He warned us never to open it.
Well, let me tell you that if you ever tell someone not to do something, the chances are that they will do it. Not necessarily out of any sense of maliciousness or defiance or anything like that. It will always come back down to that blasted curse of curiosity.
It was such a pretty jar too…
