  2. Brief Biography • Persephone was playing in a flowery meadow when she was seized by Hades and carried to the underworld as his bride. Her mother, Demeter, searched for her and was furious when she found out that her husband Zeus conspired in Persephone’s abduction. She refused to let Earth fruit until her daughter was returned. However, due to the fact that Persephone tasted the food of Hades, she was forced to spend a part of the year with him.
