home to find it Persephone was trapped deep in the underworld were neither her mother nor Hades but God of that underworld could save her would Persephone be able to escape or would recklessness trap her in the darkness of the underworld forever the great myths tell us that Persephone loved life and was always anxious for a new experience Demeter loved her daughter with all her heart but she was very busy with her work and couldn't always keep a watchful eye on percept Demeter made the fields rife with wheat and the gardens lush with vegetation she worked tirelessly to feed a hungry world five what the bounty of the earth is not here for your amusement don't like me smashing melons well how about this well what you are done you must be punished [Music] for his disrespect to a god the boy paid a terrible price he was forced deep into the earth where he would live far from the world of sunlight for the rest of his days there was one thing that worried Demeter even more than her harvest and that was her daughter's constant search for adventure Persephone Persephone Persephone longed to explore the world around her and sometimes Persephone acted recklessly [Music] Persephone did not realize she was being observed by someone far beneath the earth he was the god Hades what is it Severus that's personated the daughter of Demeter isn't she beautiful Severus look at her my eyes shine like vampires her hair like amber I wish you could join me here in my Dark Kingdom but Who am I fooling she would never come to me if I could just touch her come on mother you've made it rain for a week now please let the Sun Shine if not for me then for the mortals you'll ruin their harvest I'll stop the rain as soon as you promise to stop disobeying me and wandering off but mother

went by Persephone grew frustrated by her confinement and even though she had promised not to leave she began to dream of freedom and adventure she had so much work to do she won't miss me sorry

to make her see me do I look all right how are you I'm sorry I didn't mean to frighten you Akane ah well this pool is only a window to my world which stretches far under the earth but it's a lonely Kingdom I'm afraid you see I don't have a queen no one will accept my offer they fear they'll tire of this dark land and want to return to the world about I can't blame the man I suppose it's better

shadows of the underworld will I ever see her again she was in great peril to meet her if she eats any food or drinks any water from the underworld she will never be able to leave unaware of her mother's grief Persephone was filled with the excitement of her new adventure she was too young to know that many great adventures also hold great dangers and that danger was very close to her now so

are very noble to tell me this I want you to stay because you wish true thank you Zeus Zeus Demeter you terrible what has happened to you my sister Hades tricked my daughter into joining him in the underworld well let's see how she's doing it doesn't really like she's being held against her will how could she leave me you should have allowed her to grow and become independent if she wants to return to you she must do so on her own then I will take my revenge upon the earth if I must suffer then the world will suffer with me north wind cover the earth with ice and snow in less than a day the entire world had been covered by a freezing blanket of ice and snow there was no food or warmth and the people grew cold and hungry one two three one two three the underworld is a very different place with Persephone here I've never felt so happy as to eat sometime aren't you worried about her leaving I'll send a minion to bring food from the overworld but there is no food up there their mother has covered the world with ice and snow you see soon she will want to leave may I come in yes I never realized until now how much I love my mother III even miss her nagging me to comb my hair pick up the leaves in the garden I can cheer you up it's beautiful tomorrow I will finish the garden I started for you and then I must go home it breaks my heart to see her cry but I do wish you would say I think I know what how don't even consider trickery me of course not her mother did a favor for me once and I'd like to return it does leave it to me your majesty very well do what you can oh yes if I have my way Persephone will never again see the night Persephone now realized that her mother's protectiveness had come from a great love for her as Persephone prepared to return home she was unaware of the trap that was being set this will be the most beautiful garden of all it will always remind Hades of the time we spent together how sweet [Applause] I know I planted pomegranate seeds they you were a gift from me I noticed the pomegranates necklace around your neck you must like them they're my favorite food in the whole world Hayley you must be very hungry why not take a bite no I can't eat the food of the underworld or or I'll be trapped here forever here at least taste these tiny seeds altogether they don't even add up to a full bite how much harm can a few tiny seeds do No take it away very well goodbye r7e I will miss you I would get my kingdom to have you stay just a smile before I go I can't you see forgotten already you must remember I thought you said don't worry he has my permission to leave the underworld you have eaten the food of the underworld some of the seeds are missing three is enough according to the law you can never leave the Dark Kingdom now I said no trickery how dare you disobey me but now she will stay with you forever I I thought it would be you it pleases me to send you Zeus was right what am i doing it is my fault that Persephone ran away if I could just see her and tell her I'm sorry please can I go to her for just a day or two even an hour so I can ease her pain can't you see how much she needs me I also need you more than I ever thought possible but you were right when you said that love changes people my chariot [Music] there's only one way to find out the world can be a dangerous place I should have listened to you know it was my fault I should have given you more freedom but are you free now no one has ever been released from the underworld before yes she is free I care for her too much to keep her against her will I ask only one thing Persephone has eaten three pomegranate seeds from the underworld I would like her to return for three months out of every year three months but she's a woman she must make her own decisions I happily for three months every year we will laugh and dance and sing and when you leave me I will always have the memory of you here in my heart everyone needs to find their own way in the world but it can be dangerous if caution and common sense are not heeded in the exploration for that reason Persephone learned to appreciate her mother's advice and value it [Music] Persephone kept her promise and did return to the underworld for three months of every year which is why winter counts and during that time nothing will grow [Music] like Demeter we look forward to the time when Persephone comes home [Music] when the warmth and color of spring spreads across the land and all of us celebrate the return of life [Music]
