Persephone was a beautiful maiden, daughter to Zeus and Demeter. She was sweet and innocent and embodied everything spring or maiden related. One day when beautiful Persephone was picking flowers with a few other maidens, she was kidnapped by Hades the Lord of the underworld. Hades had fallen in love with Persephone's sweet demeanor and beauty and had asked Zeus for her hand in marriage. Zeus said that Demeter would never agree and advised Hades to kidnap her instead.

While Demeter searched for Persephone guided by Hecate, Persephone got hungry and ate 6 pomegranate seeds in the underworld. Demeter told Zeus that if she did not get her daughter back she would cause the land to become barren and the humans to starve. Zeus having a love for his humans agreed to return Persephone to Demeter, however because Persephone had eaten the 6 seeds she would have to live with Hades in the underworld for six months of the year and the other 6 months of the year she would return to Demeter. Henceforth why we have winter when the land becomes barren. In the spring Persephone is returned to Demeter and the world comes back to life, bringing spring flowers, fertility to the land and those who inhabit the earth.
