Her name is Persephone and is the daughter of Demeter the goddess of the harvest. Hades loved her and kidnapped her to be his wife. Then she was taken to the underworld, but she hated it and wanted to go back to her mother. When Hades saw that she was unhappy he let her go, but on the way out Persephone ate 6 seeds of the pomegranate. By eating food from the underworld you stay forever, but since she only ate 6 seeds she stays in the underworld for half of the year every year. Because of that, Demeter mourns for her when she is away, and forgets to work for nature, that is why there is winters. So pretty much all Persephone does in the underworld is try to get others to eat her pomegranates so they can suffer too...
