The Greek Gods ES

Overall, the story of Hermes intrigues me the most of all the gods. The reason I say this is because he was born in a cave and right after he was born, he went and did mischievous things. He first off tricked a tortoise into coming through the cave, only to kill it and make an instrument out of the shell. After, he went and stole fifty cattle from Apollo and Apollo was very angry about this. Hermes sacrificed some of the cattle to the gods and left the rest. Hermes then fled back to the cave, where he acted like he was sleeping all day. Apollo tracked him down into the cave and took Hermes to Zeus to resolve the issue. They both said their sides of the story and Zeus straight-up laughed because of what Hermes said and did. He ordered Hermes to give the cattle back and make amends with what he has done. After the cattle were returned back to Apollo, the two bonded over music from the Lyre that Hermes made. Hermes then gave the Lyre to Apollo as a gift. Apollo gave him a whip to watch over the cattle and the two became close. It was nice for me to see that both of them put everything behind and moved forward for their "brotherly" relationship. I do understand Apollo being mad because it is hard to be cool with a trickster such as Hermes.
