that the love of a mother, Demeter, for her daughter, Persephone, is unbreakable.
Well of course I do! The first story I can think of is the story of how she became the Queen of the Underworld. (sounds terrible, doesn't it?) Some info you should know first- Persephone's mom is Demeter Husband is Hades Father is Zeus Persephone is the goddess of spring the goddess of innocence the Queen of the Underworld Here's the simplified version: Persephone was picking flowers in a meadow and the ground opened up. Hades, the Lord of the Underworld, grabbed her and pulled her down to the Underworld with him. Hades had been watching Persephone for some time and thought she was perfect for his Queen. Demeter went into a great depression. Her daughter was missing. All the crops for the mortals were dead. (this is also the story of the seasons... [winter now]) Demeter pleaded for Zeus to bring her back. But in the Underworld, Persephone was at a feast. She knew if she ate ANYTHING, she would be trapped there forever. So when Hades offered her a pomegranate, she sucked on the seeds and spat them out. Back on Mt. Olympus, Zeus came up with an idea. He bargained with Hades, and they came up with a plan- Persephone would be with Hades for so many months, then in the spring, she would return and Demeter would grow the crops for the humans. The End??

The central idea of the story
A major idea of Greek belief was that in the Eleusinian Mysteries, these believers when they die are granted entrance into the Elysian paradise sit aside for them in the Underworld. This religion was a part of the worship of Demeter, who's daughter was Persephone.
A story's the central idea or concept is a theme. A story with the idea that sacrifice ensures success would have a theme of sacrifice leading to success.
Persephone is Zeus and Demeters daughter. One day while in the meadow with her mother, picking flowers. Hades was nearby bringing dead souls to the underworld. Eros, the god of love, shot an arrow at Hades and he instantly fell in love with Persephone. The first person he saw. He then raced up in his chariot of black horses and captured her to bring down to th underworld. Demeter, the goddess of harvest, did not let anything grow until she found her daughter. Then Demeter had a idea, she went down to the underworld and found Hades with persephone, and demanded her return. Hades, with no other option had to let her leave. but before she did he had her eat a few seeds (if you eat in the underworld u will have to come back) and one day Persephone wanted to go back and now she lives with Hades as king and queen of the underworld. persephone only lives in the underworld during winter and autumn, she is with her mother in the spring and summer. that's why there are seasons
