Taking the Seeds

we're coming to the end of our little tale, here shows Persephone and Hades in the Underworld once more, it's significantly 'warmer' looking because Hades has found a new light in his life, Persephone. However things are not what they appear, he is determined to keep her by his side so is offering her half of a pomegranate (which you cant see but he totally IS holding.... >3>...) Persephone is blisfully unaware of what meaning and bond is behind eating the fruit of the underworld... however she will soon find out...

Again this illustration is part of a small series which followes through the tale of the Pomegranate Seeds, the tale of Hades and Persephone. I wrote a short story of my own interpretation of this myth as can be viewed here [link]
