Hades has many assistants and servants, among others are the judges who judge the human soul (Minos, Rhadamanthys, and Aiacos), Cerberus the guardian of the underworld, and the Moirae who control over fate. One of the most famous myth mentioned in history is the abduction of Persephone, goddess of spring, where Hades kidnapped her. Demeter demanded her daughter to be released and he did, but not before giving the pomegranate fruit to Persephone, which made her the queen of underworld, therefore every half year must she return to him. Hades also appears in the tales of Orpheus and Eurydice.
