Mythology
Atalanta

|
Atalanta was a demigod who was very cunning. When she lived in the forest with the bears, and she saw that Meleager had killed her brother the bear, she was very silent and would slowly sneak up on him to get revenge. She was still and quiet, which was hard to do because she was on slippery rocks. Another example is when she was running the races, she would always beat her opponents. Every time she would outsmart them and use her tricks to her advantage, like when she acted like she couldnŐt run very fast, and then sprinted by her opponent. This showed that she was very crafty indeed. She also was a skilled huntress and was always thinking of ways to hunt skillfully. Once, she caught Melaeger in a great bear hug that almost cracked his spine. No one would have ever thought that giving someone a bear hug would crack his spine, and that shows that she was very smart and cunning. In conclusion, Atalanta was very sneaky throughout the story. |
