The Abduction of Persephone - The Version Disney Won't Tell You
The Greek myth of Persephone, told from the older sources. Zeus colluded. The abduction was violent. Demeter cursed children into lizards and held a king's son over a fire. The Mysteries that grew from her grief had a death penalty for revelation. This is the version before anyone wanted gods to be charming.
