Post #5

The characters present in my myth, are:

  • Hermes
  • Hermes's mother, Maia
  • Apollo
  • Zeus
  • Apollo's cows
Hermes was just an infant when he pranked Apollo by switching the feet of his cows.

He was still living with his mother, Maia, a mountain nymph, in a secluded cave. Maia, obviously had no idea what her son did overnight, so she is completely oblivious as to why Apollo would be so mad.

Apollo really loves his cows, and he was just off doing his sun, poem, herding, business until Hermes came and made him mad. He's quick to forgive though, and wasn't too angry after Hermes fessed up and gave Apollo a lyre.

Zeus surprisingly finds it quite amusing that Apollo just got tricked my a toddler, but does some good for once and fixes Apollo's cows with the help of Hermes.

Apollo's cows, I would assume were pretty distressed because they couldn't go anywhere but they were pretty forgiving to Hermes too because cows are awesome.
