Mythology
Arion

|
Arion is a brave demigod who was very smart and sly.
First, when he was trapped on a ship with a lot of robbers and thieves, he had
to stall so he could formulate a plan of escape. The leader of the band
wanted the jeweled sword that Arion was holding. The man told Arion that he was going to die so that the
sword could be taken and Arion could not tell the police. Then, Arion walked
to the edge of the ship and started singing in his beautiful voice. A few
dolphins swam by to hear him and they allowed him to jump on their back to
escape. The thieves never knew what hit them. This way Arion could escape
with his sword and get back home. If Arion was not smart, then he would have
never gone home like the prophecy stated. In the end Arion showed just how
cunning he could be. |
