Ten Greek mythology stories that I find enchanting:

1. Ariadne helped Theseus out of a Labyrinth and away from the Minotaur by handing him a string to mark the way. Why didn't the Minotaur see the string and follow it?

2. The only item remaining in Pandora's box is Hope, as Hope was not ready to leave mankind to its fate. Go Misery, Suffering and Pain!!!

3. Prometheus is bound to a rock where everyday an eagle comes and eats his insides, which heal overnight again. (Eternal Torment #1).

4. Sisyphus drags a rock up the hill everyday, but the rock slides down by nighttime. (Eternal Torment #2).

5. Tantalus had his moment of satisfaction and revenge against the Gods. But he too stands in a pool whose water he cannot drink and under a tree whose fruit he cannot pluck to eat. (Eternal Torment #3).

6. Kronos was cut down by his own sons into a gazillion pieces and his remains were scattered throughout the Underworld and Erebus. Since he is immortal, the pain too is eternal. (Eternal Torment #4)

7. Daedalus escaped from the prisons of Minos by making wax wings for himself and his son, Icarus. However, Icarus was dumb enough to fly too high to the sun, and the wax melted. How can the son of a genius be such a total idiot?

8. Hercules captured the Erymanthian Boar that was rampaging many villages by driving it into thick snow. What would he have done if it were not winter, or if there was no snow that year?

9. Medusa was killed by Perseus. Perseus was looking at her reflection in a shield, and hecut off her head and then gifted the head to Hermes, who with the help of Athena, made a shield called Aegis for Zeus. Why didn't Hermes, Athena or Zeus turn into stone?

10. Hermes carried a caduceus having two snakes entwined and doctors use the caduceus as their symbol as Hermes is the God of Medicine. Why don't thieves use the symbol too, as he also is the God of Thieves?
