Answer:

(Hope this helps can I pls have brainlist (crown)☺️)

Explanation:

"The Gifts of Feodor Himkoff", is a very heart touching story by Arthur Quiller. It is narrated in the first person. The narrator is a frequent visitor to a coastal area called Zoze Point. It is a difficult place to reach. He recalls of one of his visits in cold December.  

He had been walking continuously for four days and was totally worn out. He wanted a cup of warm milk to keep him alive when he chanced upon a small cottage with a fire burning. As he knocked at the door shyly he was greeted by a poorly clad old lady. The woman invited him inside and offered him a cup of tea. There was an old deaf man slouched in a chair. He was Isaac, the woman’s ailing husband.

The woman served him a very high quality tea complemented with rich dainties. When the narrator asked from where the gourmet came she narrated the story of the gifts of Feodor Himkoff.

Long ago Isaac had lost his only son. He was a soldier brutally killed by the Russians. Ever since, Isaac had vowed that he would slew every Russian he saw to avenge his son’s death. Some years later a Russian soldier with the middle finger of his hand missing, had knocked at his door in search of shelter. He and fifteen soldiers were badly injured and had been shipwrecked. Isaac cruelly refused shelter and all the Russians perished. Next day onwards Isaac went to the shore and buried the bodies that floated ashore.

A few years letter Feodor Himkoff, the brother of the soldier with the missing finger came to meet Isaac. He had come to thank him for giving his brother and his crew a peaceful burial. Ever since he had been sending the rich gifts to Isaac. As a deed of redemption Isaac and his wife did not touch the gifts but served them to all the weary travellers who sought shelter in their warm cottage. They no longer refused any one shelter.

In the myth of Demeter Persephone and Hades what happens when Demeter learns that her daughter has been kidnapped
alukav5142 [94]
She searches for her and meets a queen. she then turns the queens baby into a demigod to thank her for her kindness when she was disguised as an old woman. After revealing herself as Demeter, she and the soldiers of the queen's nation begin searching for Persephone. She meets the sun titan and finds out where Persephone was taken from. She meets Hecate, a witch who tells her it was Hades, so Demeter goes to Zues, who tells her that he can do nothing about it. Demeter flips out and nothing grows anywhere except the place where the queen helped Demeter. Mortals were dieing and the gods were becoming irritated. Zues finally caved and sent Hermes to get Persephone, right after she eats part of the pomegranate. He tells this to Zues and Demeter, who turns the gardener who gave her the pomegranate into a newt. they eventually come to the agreement of Persephone stays in the underworld for part of the year, which is believed to be winter when Demeter is in distress until her daughter returns and nothing grows. Sorry for the long answer, I probably added a lot of unnecessary stuff.
