Mythological Knowledge hidden in Tarot Cards ( Story of Persephone and Hades) Part-II



what happened when Hermes reached to Underworld to take Persephone. What Hades did to Persephone.Did she come back or not.

Now read the next part :- 

Persephone and Hades had reached his home in the Underworld. Hades warned Persephone not to eat any food there. For Hades loved her and knew that Persephone wouldn't be happy in the Underworld all the time. He would have to have food from above brought down for her. 

Swift Hermes reached the Underworld and found Hades. Persephone had hidden herself behind a pomegranate tree. She could hear all that Hermes and Hades said.

"Hail Hades," Hermes said with a nod. "I come to bring Persephone, daughter of Demeter, back to Mount Olympus."

"Hail, Hermes," Hades replied, "I will not give Persephone up. She is mine, and mine alone."

Hermes sighed and dropped the formality. "Come-on, Hades, I'm in a tight fix here. If I don't bring Persephone back, Demeter will have my flying shoes!"

"That witch," Hades remarked, thinking the problem over.

"Has Persephone eaten anything?" Hermes asked.

Hades didn't reply.

"If she hasn't," Hermes said slyly, "then I can take her back."

Hades didn't reply.

Persephone was scared now. She didn't want to leave Hades, but Hermes was her friend and she didn't want him in trouble either. Thinking quickly, she saw six pomegranates on the tree before her. She just picked them from the branch and started to eat them.
