Once upon a time, there was a beautiful goddess who lived in the sky. One day, she was very sad because she had lost someone dear to her. She grieved for many days, until she decided that she needed to go to the underworld to find her loved one.

She took with her a pomegranate as a gift for the ruler of the underworld. When she arrived, the ruler was very impressed with the gift and allowed her to search for her loved one.

With the help of the pomegranate, the goddess was able to find her loved one and bring them back to the sky. From that day on, she was no longer sad and was filled with happiness once again.

The people below saw how much the goddess cared and were inspired by her bravery. They started to offer pomegranates as gifts to the ruler of the underworld whenever they needed help or guidance. And so, the tradition of giving pomegranates to the underworld began.
