Note: A mortal shepherd, a golden apple, and a beauty contest. Separately they are harmless, but together they would have such dire consequences! When a scorned goddess is deliberately rejected from attending an upcoming grand wedding, she seeks revenge with a rather innocuous act. She throws a golden apple amidst the guests with the inscribed words ’to the fairest of all’. Three of the most powerful goddesses of Mount Olympos present their arguments for owning the intriguing fruit, and to judge them was a mere mortal, a Trojan shepherd by the name of Paris. A beauty contest is held, and Paris must choose among the three goddesses on who is the most worthy of the golden apple. Little did anyone know that the result would bring the death of thousands and the utter destruction of a whole city! |
