Out of the dirt beneath his feet, and the steel blood running through his veins, Zeus creates a living weapon, giving it only one purpose: return Spring to Olympus, no matter the cost. 

Seasons later, Olympus remains cold, and Zeus has no answers to give. He meets his suspicion, his weapon is now one of Hell. 

Enraged, Zeus spills the blood of Hades and Persephone, leaving in his path a broken underworld and a weapon that was never used. 

Her name was Koré. Against Zeus, she was lifeless, a void, and had absolutely no self restraint. In a desperate attempt to bring war to a halt, she destroys the Underworld, destroying the essence of time along with it.

Blooming Emotions by Kthonia

"I asked him for it. For the blood, the rust, for the sin. I didn't want the pearls other girls talked about, or the fine marble of palaces, or even the roses in the mouth of servants. I wanted pomegranates-- I wanted darkness I want him. So I grabbed my king and ran away to the land of death, where I reigned, and people whispered that I'd been dragged. I'll tell you I've changed. I'll tell you, the red on my lips isn't wine. I hope you've heard of horns, but that isn't half of it. Out of an entire kingdom, he kneels only to me, calls me Queen, calls me Mercy. Mama, Mama, I hope you get this. Know the bed is warm and our hearts are cold, know never have I been better than when I am here. Do not send flowers, we'll throw in the river. 'Flowers are for the dead' --'least that's what the mortals say. I'll come back when he bores me, but Mama, not today." --Daniella Michallen, "Persephone Speaks." The kidnapping of Persephone retold in which Hades didn't kidnap Persephone, but she fell into the Underworld and became Hades' queen.

Hope for the Underworld by MDVidgen

'In a single terrifying moment the heavens roared with a deafening crack of thunder, and the wind howled in a bone-chilling frenzy, as if someone was screaming in agony and unbearable anguish. In response, the earth recoiled in shock; the ground shook violently, jolting her off her feet. As the tremors intensified, a great chasm ripped open, devouring everything in its path and swallowing her in an instant. In a heartbeat, she plummeted into the shadowy abyss, consumed completely by the darkness. Then, the great void closed again, cutting off the sound of her terrified voice, leaving no trace of her presence there...' A retelling of the timeless love story of Hades and Persephone. Though some may argue it wasn't a love story at all... I disagree... Cover by AI Updated twice a week.

Punica Granatum by kmbell92

She caught the eye of Hades, the God of the Underworld, who wanted nothing more than to make the beautiful maiden his wife. After struggling to take Persephone away from her mother, Hades finally had the love of his life at last. He assumed that once Persephone swallowed the six seeds of the pomegranate that she would be his forever. However, it was not the case. Kore Caras has always been aware of her talented green thumb, although while the people of her town know her to be a talented florist, there is so much more to the young woman. At an early age, Kore discovered her talent among plant life, how she could make even a wilting flower bloom at her will. Running a successful floral shop in town, everything seems to be going smoothly for the young woman as the days of summer draw to an end. But everything starts to take a drastic turn when Kore discovers what appears to be pomegranate seeds outside of her front door.

Ascension by CajunValkyrie

In a modern world where ancient gods walk among mortals, the balance of power is disrupted when Zeus, the king of the olymyan gods, commits a heinous act: the rape and murder of Persephone, the beloved wife of Hades and queen of the underworld. Consumed by grief and rage, Hades, ruler of the underworld, embarks on a quest for vengeance against his brother Zeus. Leaving the confines of the underworld, Hades seeks allies among the gods, rallying them to his cause in a bid to overthrow Zeus and restore justice. As Hades traverses the mortal realm, he encounters allies and adversaries alike. Athena, goddess of wisdom, joins his cause, appalled by Zeus's actions and eager to see justice served. However, not all gods are swayed by Hades's call to arms. Some remain loyal to Zeus, while others harbor their own agendas, complicating Hades's mission. Amidst the turmoil, mortals become unwitting pawns in the gods' power struggle. As alliances shift and betrayals unfold, Hades must navigate treacherous waters to confront Zeus and avenge the death of Persephone. But in a world where gods play by their own rules, the outcome of Hades's quest remains uncertain, and the fate of both mortals and immortals hangs in the balance.
