The Myth of Narcissus
In the verdant hills of Boeotia, a region of ancient Greece known for its fertile lands and clear waters, there lived a young man of such extraordinary beauty that all who beheld him were immediately captivated. His name was Narcissus, the son of the river god Cephissus and the nymph Liriope. From the moment of his birth, it was clear that this child possessed beauty beyond the ordinary measure of mortals—eyes as blue and clear as the summer sky, hair that gleamed like spun gold in the sunlight, and features so perfectly proportioned they might have been sculpted by divine hands.
