““What have you done?" she screamed at Hades with tears running down both of her cheeks. "I am not dead! I don't belong here, let me go home!" Hades towered in front of her, all dark robes and a face so pale, he himself looked dead. His blue lips parted and he began to console Persephone. His soft spoken words surprised Persephone, she had imagined his voice to bring forth fire and lightning, but he spoke to her soothingly. "If I appeared in front of you, and asked you to follow me, would you have done it?" he asked. "No, I would not, of course," she said. "Then, in order to show you my kingdom, and ask for your hand, I had to find a way to bring you down here," he said. "Ask for my hand? I don't want to get married, now bring me back to the field I was on," Persephone pleaded.””
