I always enjoy hearing Greek myths. In their non-puritanically cleaned-up versions,
the stories are like magic infused soap-operas with slightly more incest and cannibalism.
The mythic characters have only two options in the long run:
1. Gruesome death to be celebrated for ages
2. Punching out a god and taking their seat on Mount Olympus
The difference between the myths of the Greeks and the Judeo-Christians
is that the Greek Pantheon is much more interactive:
If you have ambition, skill and a kick-ass epithet, the world can be yours.
