Hippomenes asked Hephaestus for help because he didn't want to lose his life or his beloved. So Hephaestus made Hippomenes Three Golden Apples and explained that Atlanta loved golden, shiny, or expensive things and that he has to throw the apples so that Atlanta will see them and stop to pick them up for a little while giving him time to catch up or pass her.
-God of Metalworking
-Hephaestus was born from Hera,The Goddess of Marriage or Queen of the Gods
-Hera made Hephaestus to get revenge on Zeus,her husband
-Hephaestus had a tiny,twisted,shriveled foot when he was born and was thrown far away by Hera because Hephaestus brought shame to her.
Before the race Hippomenes was called to the palace and Atlanta was waiting at the starting line thinking she was going to win unaware that Hippomenes had the Three Golden Apples with him.There was also an audience watching the race. First one to reach the Finish line first wins 3...2...1...GO! Atlanta was off and Hippomenes was behind her so he used one Golden Apple and she stopped to pick it up and admired it and looked at herself in the shiny, majestic, golden surface. Hippomenes got in front of her and then she started running again and when she got close he dropped the second apple the same thing happened.
One day Hippomenes kept thinking about racing Atlanta and thought about Atlanta too. He decided to go to the palace and challenge Atlanta to a race and he did challenge Atlanta. She told Hippomenes what would happen if he lost or won and asked if he accepted the challenge.
Hippomenes Accepted.
-When Hephaestus was thrown he was found by Thetis and raised under water in a magical air bubble
-Hephaestus was smart and muscular so he wanted to be a Metal Worker.He also wanted to be powerful
Summary
Hippomenes had one apple left and Atlanta was catching up to him fast, he was almost at the finish line so when he got closer he threw the last apple and she stopped to pick it up, again, and Hippomenes crossed the finish line, he did it and then they got married and loved each other very much.
Hippomenes was in love with Atlanta, a princess, but the only way to marry her was to beat her in a foot race. Will he succeed?
If Hippomenes Wins he gets to marry Atlanta with no disagreements or arguments, but If Hippomenes Losses he gets killed.
Lose=
Win=
And to think all of this started because of
Three Golden Apples
Why many men lost to Atlanta and why
Hippomenes Won.
Men every where kept on challenging Atlanta to a race but never thought of being strategic in a race or using their brain, they just wanted to beat her so they could marry her. Atlanta is the fastest woman in her kingdom and won races often. Every man thought he could beat her easily, but how wrong they were. Instead of beating Atlanta they just got executed. Hippomenes was the first man to beat Atlanta by using Wits and Strategy.
SLOW DOWN AND THINK!
