Hades Vis A Vis Persephone

Hades was a fearsome Greek god and ruler of the Underworld. So dreaded by the Greeks that they didn’t dare speak his name, his most famous act was abducting Persephone, goddess of springtime.

Persephone was the daughter of Zeus and Demeter, the wife of Hades, and the queen of the Underworld. Her most important myth tells of how Hades abducted her, then tricked her into eating something in the Underworld so that she could never leave. Not even her mother, Demeter, could bring her home.
