Dennis Hackethal criticized idea #4240.
#4240·Dennis HackethalOP, 1 day agoLong ago, Hades, god of the underworld, kidnapped and raped Persephone, goddess of spring. Then Persephone’s mother, Demeter, goddess of the earth and agriculture, negotiated a contract for her daughter’s release, which specified that Persephone would marry Hades and eat a magic seed that would compel her to visit him once a year thereafter. Whenever Persephone was away fulfilling this obligation, Demeter became sad and would command the world to become cold and bleak so that nothing could grow.
“[W]e have no way of knowing that Demeter is sad…” (BoI chapter 1)
