This story was originally written for a collection of stories reimagining the Orpheus and Eurydice myths. This was based on the "wedding" part of the story. Eurydice is a nymph and Orpheus is a human. I wanted to imagine a wedding between characters from two very different societies and ask, can it ever be healthy? I am not sure. But people are always going to keep making those connections.
