Apollo

Apollo, the god of light, is a fearless god. One reason is when he kills the Python. This horrible creature also known as the Python is an evil snake that kills its prey by crushing it. Because Python had killed his mother, Apollo wanted to kill him. Finding Python in a cave, Apollo shot his bow and arrows at him when he came out. Finally, Apollo skilled Python. A second time would be when Apollo invited Marsyas, a wonderful musician just like Apollo, to a contest of who could play better. By doing this Apollo was brave because the winner of this contest could place any penalty he wanted on the loser. Losing to Marsyas meant that he could place any penalty he wanted on Apollo. These two statements that were just stated prove that Apollo is an audacious god. |
