Just finished watching this series. I don't think I've ever watched something so amazing, and I'm literally in love with it.
Anne Marie Duff was perfect...every time I looked at her, I was like "she's actually Elizabeth... she must be a queen"

Queen of the Underworld

Queen of the Underworld
I ship Persephone and Hades, eheh, just love this couple ^__^
-
but now,let's talk about her:
The Greek goddess Persephone was born when Demeter was Zeus' consort, long before his marriage to the goddess Hera.
Hades, fell in love with her and snatched Persephone away, taking her to his underworld kingdom and making her his queen.
One can hardly blame Hades because the underworld, in Greek mythology, was the realm of the sleeping and the dead. It probably needed some "brightening up".
Although the young Persephone grew to love Hades, she remained lonely for her mother and the life she'd known on earth. And Persephone was rather enjoying her role as Queen, even if it was in the underworld.
While preparing to return to the earth with Hermes, Persephone accepted a pomegranate offered to her by Hades. She knew full well that anyone who had eaten while in the underworld would not be allowed to return, even a goddess.
Persephone went ahead and ate seven of the seeds. Her choice prevented her from ever being fully restored to Demeter. Persephone would be allowed to stay with Hades in the underworld for four months each year and would return to the earth and her mother the remaining months.

The Mighty Hunter

The Mighty Hunter
I do really like this constellation, and this myth also, well, I like the myth, just because my star sign is involved :P and also because in the winters night the three stars which composing the Orion's belt are the first stars I recognize and from them I can find Polaris...well when the city lights are switched off...
It's kind of sad, so many little lights in the night sky and we prefer the artificial ones.
ahh, sorry, I'm boring, but I really love stars and planets and constellations, etc.. :)
 
btw, let's talk about this ancient Greek myth:
 
Orion was a powerful figure - strong, handsome and possessing great prowess as a hunter; He was the greatest hunter in the world. Unfortunately for him, with his immense strength came an immense ego, and he boasted that he could best any animal on earth. In response to his vanity, a single small scorpion stung him and killed him.
Orion is one of the most well-known constellations. He is easily recognizable by his bright belt of three stars. In addition, his shoulder is marked by the red supergiant Betelgeuse (literally "armpit of the central one" in Arabic), and his left leg is marked by the blue-white supergiant Rigel.
Scorpius, is also immortalised in the Heavens, but is placed in the opposite quadrant to that of Orion, so that they will never meet again.
