It doesn't bother me though, heroes saving people from the Underworld is a thing from actual Greek Myths, and don't forget, it is not easy to do. And besides, any fantasy story useally has some sort of bringing back the dead/resurection/reincarnation/necromancy, so it makes sense to have it on Once. I think everyone has forgotten one little detail. Mortals can't visit the underworld. Only Gods, Demigods, and especially dead people can visit the underworld. As far as I seen so far. Of course I could have missed a slight detail. And that is the truth. Even in Once, they had to communicate across the Dark Vortex, but the Cora spirit escaped. What's the truth? What you said. Orpheus was the only one to really do so and he had to convince Hasdes to let him down there.

Heracles (Hercules) also went to the Underworld for his 12th labor. And yes, he's a demigod, but he was trying to prove himself to go to Mt. Olympus/get immortallity, so he kind of counts as mortal.
