KO-FI.COM/PODYSSEY *** Welcome to a new outpost of
the Podyssey Empire - PODYSSEY STORYTIME. Basically, while
researching the main episodes, I stumble on many other myths - MANY
other myths - that are really touching or funny or outright
bizarre. They don’t necessarily warrant hours of deep analysis, but
they are absolutely worth sharing. And since I cannot retain an
infinite amount of information but I love giving you more content,
I will put these out, as I find them, in this short, story-only
format. Now, on to this weekend’s myth, the story of Arachne,
the talented Lydian weaver, who challenged the Goddess Athena to a
contest, sort of by accident, and wound up with quite the
itsy-bitsy problem. *** SUPPORT PODYSSEY ON
