The Greek Gods ES

So Apollo to me is someone who I like but also dislike. To begin with I love the story of him and the serpent. It is very brave of him to basically train his entire life to take on the dangerous serpent and actually end up killing it with his powerful skills of his bow. However, his cockiness kind of screwed things over for him. After taunting Aros and saying he was better, as any one should get, karma got the best of him. Aros decided to teach him a lesson by striking him with a golden arrow and Daphne with a lead arrow. This is where my disliking of Apollo comes in. Like some guys who aren't doing so well with women, he kind of forces himself onto Daphne causing her to be just absolutely disgusted. Now sure it's because they were both cursed, but it is still disturbing to hear. On the lighter sides of things, because of Apollo's actions, I found the ending of that story a little comical. After running away from Apollo, Daphne turns into a tree in order to avoid Apollo. Now that's just tough. And or course heartbroken Apollo who never got to love her promises that the tree will be his beloved plant.
