Well Greek mythology is very well documented due to the fact they played a major role in historical influence. Same for Roman, Egyptian, and Middle Eastern. Mythology from the Vikings, Native America, and Southern African is poorly understood due to the label they were given at that time “Heathens/savages”. They rarely documented their beliefs and were commonly forced to convert. Not to say they didn’t play significant roles in history, but due to their beliefs they were often hated by larger civilizations. That’s why mythologies outside of Roman, Egyptian, and Greek isn’t discussed as much. Although, I am interested in learning what smaller civilizations believed in. Many aspects of which occasionally correlates with the beliefs in larger civilizations.

I'd really like to know more about Native American mythology and stories! Thank you!

Never heard about the Fates being personally involved with Hades and Persephone like that. There really is alot of different variotions of that story. And funnily enough, the oldest versions of it are actually the happiest, with Persephone actually loving Hades and being queen of the underworld, while later ones have Persephone being unhappy about it all. It's even weirder when we consider her pre-greek origin that already establish her as an underworld goddess, while Hades seemingly appears out of nowhere as greek mythology as we know it came to be, meaning Persephone has a much longer history as an underwold deity than Hades does.

If we look at it with historical context, women had practically no rights and the poses to symbolise kidnapping and marriage on Greek art were the same. So we can deduce that this wasn't too unusual, especially for the gods. Plus Homer's poem outlined Zeus as the antagonist so I don't think the intention was to frame the relationship as necessarily bad, though different retellings and sources differ.

Zeus wasn't considered an antagonist, he just did what fathers did at the time and married his daughter off. But I, the ancient Greeks, and even you probably should admit that abduction is a no no, right? (and its all symbolic) Also, tricking your love interest into staying around by eating a pomegranate wouldn't be necessary if this was okay by her. You can say that it may have started on the wrong foot, but it got better... But still, what ancient, 'older' sources speak to this? You can even point out that she has sway over Hades in stories such as Herakles' 12th task, or Orpheus' plea for his wife, but these are later stories (Diodorus Siculus and the like, 1st Century BC) and in that case I can bring her infatuation with Adonis, which would be considered infidelity (for women).

She has sway with him (and shares power which would have been uncommon for women) in some stories and at the very least they seem functional (compared to the other gods). The story was used to explain the seasonal cycle, so it would make sense these characters would play a role in this. Spring is sealed away and winter would cause death back then so it makes sense the god of the underworld was involved. It's also uncommon to hear myths/stories about the underworld, so it makes sense that we hear very little about their relationship. I guess it's up to personal interpretation becuase the original script was torn and the physical art representing it was limited. Earlier sources were from cults and they were very secretive, so it's impossible to trace these myths back any further then we already have.

9:18 The Korean Jeju goddess(more like just a spirit) is actually pronounced: Ga-mun-jang-agi (The Gamunjang part means "clay pot" and the last Agi part means baby). As the spirit of fortune she blessed her own house with riches and when her unknowing parents asked their children "Why do you think we are so blessed?", her two humble sisters(named silver pot and bronze pot) answered "It's because we have great parents" but "Claypot" answered "Its cuz of me!" Infuriated by her impudence, the parents ran her out of the house but then sent her sisters to bring her back. However, "Claypot" was so angry that she turned her sisters into rare mushrooms and caused her parents to slip and become blinded and eventually poor. She later repents her actions after meeting a kind man that gave the best parts of any food to his parents and older brothers only taking the barely edible crumbs for himself. She rewards the kind man with gold and marries him but learns that she cannot undo her own angery actions. She holds a feast for all the towns people providing food and drinks to the poor where she meets a old couple dressed in rags. She cries when realizing that these are her parents and a miracle happens undoing the harm she had done to her family. source: namu.wiki/w/%EA%B0%90%EC%9D%80%EC%9E%A5%EC%95%84%EA%B8%B0

Persephone's opinion on the matter was not consulted by anyone in most versions of the story and the few that do have her give an opinion, she states a desire to remain with Hades, not that anyone seems to care about what she wants.
