Psyche was born so beautiful that she was worshipped as a new incarnation of Venus, the goddess of love. But human lovers were too intimidated to approach her, and Apollo recommended her father abandon her on a crag where she would marry “a cruel and savage, serpent-like winged evil.” But Psyche’s story ended up being much more interesting. Brendan Pelsue shares the myth of Cupid and Psyche.

Psyche's sisters actually poisoned her thoughts, but okay. Also, the ants were there because of Demeter, whose temple Pysche had cleaned on the way while finding Eros(Cupid). She also cleaned Hera's temple, so it wasn't a river god, it was a pile of reeds that told her the answer to the second task. There were actually four tasks, the underworld task being the 4th task. The third task was to get a pitcher of Styx water. Oh well. it was a good animation though, and I loved it.

I love how the gods don't say no to anything. They just give you a series of impossible tasks. How polite.

The version I read, stated that psyche loathed how beautiful she was because it isolated her from the world. Cupid had fallen for her not just for her looks, but for the way she handled it: she didn't want to be beautiful, she just wanted to be loved for who she was.

So, persephone dropped "sleep" when asked for her beauty because you need a "beauty sleep" to be like her ? OK
