Persephone, Queen of the Underworld The story of Persephone, the sweet daughter of goddess Demeter who was kidnapped by Hades and later became the Queen of the Underworld, is known all over the world. It is actually the way of the ancient Greeks to explain the change of the seasons, the eternal cycle of the Nature's death and rebirth.
For instance, the set-up of Persephoneâs encounter with Hades has at least 10 variations, such as. 1  Persephone gathers flowers on a hillside alone in order to make a garland for Demeter. 2  Persephone plays with the sea nymphs. She runs to gather flowers in order to make necklaces for them but is soon far afield. Persephone gathers flowers in the cool, moist woods with Demeter, then notices a narcissus. She wanders off in search of more. Persephone gathers flowers in a meadow along with four river nymphs. The variations go on.
