³Apollo(完美男人→自戀 ><)為預言之神，愛上 Cassandra (吶喊的kill him~~)→賦予其預言能力→ 啾一下後帶了詛咒!(雖然有預言能力卻在世上不被接受)→ Cassandra被視為瘋子!

4 Chryses(♂阿波羅神廟大祭司)的女兒 Chryseis 被 Agamemnon ....→ 對Appollo不敬→ Appollo對希臘聯軍下瘟疫(plague)

^{Chryseis，她是特洛伊這方一個太陽神祭司Chryses的女兒，被希臘人在打特洛伊的途中擄走當戰俘，並且分配給Agamemnon，希臘軍的主帥。祭司要求用贖金贖回自己的女兒，Agamemnon不願意，所以祭司便請求太陽神降災給希臘軍；希臘軍被嚴重的瘟疫襲擊，由Achilles領頭，眾人詢問預言家Calchas瘟疫發生的原因，而Calchas告訴他們，是太陽神Apollo因為他們不答應祭司請求才降下瘟疫的。Agamemnon不得已，只好把Chryseis送回去。但是Agamemnon對Achilles非常生氣，因為是Achilles帶的頭讓他不得不送走Chryseis；於是他遷怒Achilles並且奪走了他的女奴，Briseis，當作替代品。Achilles在眾人面前被羞辱，喜歡的女奴Briseis又被奪走，因此拒不出戰，而希臘軍也節節敗退。（之後Agamemnon請求Achilles出戰時有把Briseis還回去啦）}

------------Wikipedia

In the classical period of Greek mythology, Artemis (Ancient Greek: Ἄρτεμις) was often described as the daughter of Zeus and Leto, and the twin sister of Apollo. She was the Hellenic goddess of the hunt, wild animals, wilderness, childbirth, virginity and protector of young girls, bringing and relieving disease in women; she often was depicted as a huntress carrying a bow and arrows.The deer and the cypress were sacred to her. In later Hellenistic times, she even assumed the ancient role of Eileithyia in aiding childbirth.
