As per Wikipedia, a myth is a traditional story, especially one concerning the early history of a people or explaining some natural or social phenomenon, and typically involving supernatural beings or events. According to the internet, greek mythology is the body of myths and teachings that belong to the ancient Greeks, concerning their gods and heroes, the nature of the world, and the origins and significance of their own cult and ritual practices. One example of greek mythology, is the story of “Orpheus and Eurydice”
“Orpheus and Eurydice” is a story of a demigod who is best known as the greatest musician who fell in love with a wood nymph named Eurydice. But there is man named Aristeus who became a trouble to the major characters. Eurydice was bitten by a serpent. The poison of the sting killed her and she descended to Hades immediately.
Orpheus was so sad about the loss of his love that he composed music to express the terrible emptiness which pervaded his every breath and movement. He was so desperate and found so little else meaningful, that he decided to address Hades.
As the overseer of the underworld, Hades heart had to be hard as steel, and so it was. Many approached Hades to beg for loved ones back and as many times were refused. But Orpheus' music was so sweet and so moving that it softened the steel hearted heart of Hades himself. Hades gave permission to Orpheus to bring Eurydice back to the surface of the earth to enjoy the light of day.
