The Silence Of The Sirens

Description

Seunghyun had been told, all his childhood, that loving a Siren was one of the greatest sins a man could commit to. He'd always been told to stay away from the water, for what was hiding beneath, was too gruesome for a human heart to take.

Seunghyun had never been one to follow orders, though.

"Now the Sirens have a still more fatal weapon than their song, namely their silence. And though admittedly such a thing never happened, it is still conceivable that someone might possibly have escaped from their singing; but from their silence certainly never." Franz Kafka - The Silence Of The Sirens

Foreword

"Their song, though irresistibly sweet, was no less sad than sweet, and lapped both body and soul in a fatal lethargy, the forerunner of death and corruption." - Walter Copland Perry

 

Sooo... this is my first myth/supernatural themed fic and I hope I'm not an utterly lost case, plese bear with me.

If you haven't noticed yet, this is, yet again, a GTOP fic >_<

I hope you guys like it, I just wanted to try something new :)

Disclaimer: I don't own the caracters and I credit Franz Kafka here, for burrowing the title :P

The rest is the product of my imagination (including the used poems, I wrote them myself since I couldn't find any that fit the story the way I want)

That's it ^^ 

Ps: Please note that I will quote some authors and poets from time to time, their names and the works they are from, the source will always be stated!
