Kore is the Greek goddess of fertility, grain, harvest, vegetation, and Spring. She is the daughter of Zeus and his sister Demeter, the goddess of the harvest, maternal half-sister to the gods Despoina and Plutus and the talking horse Arion, and paternal half-sister to the gods Apollo, Ares, Aphrodite, Artemis, Hephaestus, Athena and Dionysus. If Demeter ever loses Kore, she will withdraw from society and isolate herself until Kore returns.
