History Webcomic / DestroyerOfLight

''[[https://theiamania.thecomicseries.com/comics/1/ Destroyer of Light]]'' is a webcomic by Creator/AGnosis that follows the experiences of Persephone, daughter of the harvest goddess Demeter. In this version, Persephone is a bit darker than in other portrayals - the author draws on Orphic myths about Persephone, where she is not abducted to the underworld, but goes there willingly. Despite this, the overall tone of the webcomic is rather light-hearted, with the darkness more in the way Persephone is drawn than in her behavior.

* CreepyShadowedUndereyes: Persephone has these to highlight her darker personality.
* DarkIsNotEvil:
** Persephone is very dark, but decidedly not evil.
** Hades, despite being very gloomy, is the most honorable of the three ruling divine brothers, both toward gods and mortals. He is especially kind to his ghostly subjects. There's a reason Persephone falls for him.

* MyBelovedSmother: Demeter is very protective of her daughter, and [[JerkassGods not without reason]], but it also proves a hindrance to Persephone when she wanted some time away [[spoiler: so she could ask Zeus for an abortion]].
%%* NatureLover: Demeter and Persephone, of course.
* ThatOldTimePrescription: Pennyroyal, the herb used in the abortion mentioned above, is this.
* {{Transflormation}}: Zagreus transformed into a grapevine after [[spoiler:being aborted]].

* IncestIsRelative: Almost all the gods are related in some way, so this naturally ensues.

* NatureLover: Demeter and Persephone, of course.

* BabiesMakeEverythingBetter: Demeter firmly believes this, and is horrified and disgusted when Hecate recounts the tale of a woman who aborted her child because she simply didn't want it, calling her a monster. Persephone agrees. [[spoiler: Because she sees herself as a monster for doing the same thing.]]

* DarkIsNotEvil: Persephone is very dark, but decidedly not evil.
** Hades too, who despite being ''very'' gloomy is the most honorable of the three ruling divine brothers, both toward gods and mortals. He is especially kind to his ghostly subjects. There's a reason Persephone falls for him.

* {{Transflormation}}: Zagreus transformed into a grapevine after [[spoiler:being aborted]]

* {{Adorkable}}: Several sympathetic characters, notably
** Hades, who is utterly inept at love, and is ''hilariously'' embarassed by some of the situations he winds up he's put into by his family, and Persephone.
** Persephone, who is far more ''naive'' than she imagines, as every older goddess around her immediately realizes.
** Young Athena, a supergenius goddess who initially has zero ability to fit into mortal ''or'' divine society -- though she gets better at both as she emotionally matures.

* BiTheWay: Demeter must have been intimate with a man in the past, but in the present she's shown to have a relationship with Hecate.

Persephone agreed. [[spoiler: Because Persephone sees herself as a monster for doing the same thing.]]

* CreepyShadowedUndereyes: Persephone has those.

* GlamorousSingleMother: Justified - Demeter raises Persephone on her own quite well. The fact that she's a goddess helps.
* GoodGirlsAvoidAbortion: Played with. [[spoiler: Persephone gets pregnant, and chooses to have an abortion. This is portrayed as morally neutral. However, it doesn't work as intended, and the embryo survives, because it's a god. Persephone gets someone else do adopt it. Not weirder than the canon of Greek Mythology.]]
