Once again seeing people claim Persephone was A Minor. Once again I would like to know where they got that information from
#She is obviously younger than Hades but that. Doesn't make her a child?#Like that is your actual problem. That Hades is older. WHATEVER that means bc we know jack shit abt the ages of the gods bc I doubt#Greeks gave af#What about her nymph companions and Athena and Artemis. Were they children too or is it just Persephone that was A Literal Baby#Nvm there is at least one source stating the three sisters were raised together which would mean they're all roughly the same age#What about the texts were Persephone has other godly suitors vying for her hand. Meaning she was definitely of marriageable age#What about her own mother (bad at this whole prophecy thing) predicting her marriage to Apollo (or at least that she'd sleep w him)#One would assume this was before Hades took her#Is it bc of 'Kore' again. Is that it.#Well Persephone is called 'Kore' even in her role as the Queen of the Underworld/Hades' wife#Do you know who else is referred to as a maiden. Gaia. 'I'm old as balls and took my own son as consort' Gaia#Like idkkkkkk Persephone's age is never brought up in texts?#The Problem was that her marriage was arranged without her or her mother knowing and then Hades just snatched her
