Do you have storys about Persephone?
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??

All I recall is when Persephone was kidnapped by Hades; Demeter (her mother) and Zeus (her father) demanded that Hades return her. However, she ate a pomegranate (or four seeds, the legend varies), and because of this she had to stay in the Underworld for three months out of the year. Demeter, the Goddess of All Living Things, was said to bring about winter and stop all plant growth during Persephone's time with Hades out of grief. Spring was said to be Demeter rejoicing at Persephone's return. Also, Hades claimed Persephone was his wife and his Queen of Tartarus. Queen of the Underworld and goddess of Spring; she also ruled over the Furies and heroes who went to the Underworld sought her favor.

What is the myth about Persephone birth?
Hades (Pluto is the Roman version of Hades) is the Greek god of the dead and the underworld. Persephone is the daughter of Demeter, Greek goddess of the harvest and growing plants. Hades saw Persephone, decided he was in love with her and kidnapped her. Demeter mourned the loss of her daughter and the world went barren of growing plants. Eventually the gods found Persephone in the underworld with Hades, but before she was found she had eaten six pomogranate seeds. Because she had eaten of the fruit of the underworld, she was bound to stay. The gods worked out an agreement that Persephone would spend 6 months of the year with Hades in the underworld, one month for each seed eaten, and would spend the rest of the year with Demeter. This is the explanation for the changing of the seasons - when Persephone is with Demeter, plants grow because Demeter is happy to have her daughter back. When Persephone returns to the underworld, Demeter grieves and the world goes barren, aka the seasons turn to winter.

Zeus had only two daughters: Persephone and Helen. Both were considered to be so beautiful that Theseus and his friend Perithoos decided they wanted to kidnap them. That didn't work so well for Perithoos because he became trapped in the underworld and Theseus had to go bail him out. Actually Pirithous and Theseus went together into the underworld to kidnap Persephone and were entrapped there. It was Hercules that rescued Theseus but Pirithous was condemned to stay in the underworld forever. And Zeus had other daughters: Athena, Artemis, and the Muses. Honestly, if you were the daughter of the chief Olympian, wouldn't you be a knock-out?
