latining:emegustart:When I say you don’t mess with the queen of the Underworld, it’s because you don’t mess with the queen of the Underworld. on deviantart xThere is this amazing part in the Aeneid about having to appease Terrible Proserpina and I just love it because it is very much in this vein.I mean, she’s the goddess of flowers; she would know that there needs to be death in order to have life. And even at the Gates to the Underworld she makes special tribute grow in remembrance of her abduction by Hades, and any souls who are brave enough to find and proffer it to her are granted safe passage through the Underworld.#I love Book Six okay? #I have so many mythology feels #Proserpina and Pluto are my favourite deities #Lawful Lawful and having NONE of your shit #but they are willing to grant favours with the fewest numbers of strings attached #which is pretty huge #esp. for gods -- source link
