Storyboard Tekst

  • Marpessa
  • Marpessa was the daughter of Alcippe and Evenus, the king of Aetolia. Often described as a “fair-ankled maid,” Marpessa was widely considered one of the most beautiful women to ever walk the earth.
  • However, in addition to a number of suitors, Marpessa also had the misfortune of having a very strict and conservative father.
  • Evenus
  • Determined to keep Marpessa’s innocence untouched for as long as he lives, Evenus challenged each and every one of her suitors to a deadly chariot race.
  • Let the race, begin.
  • Idas
  • One day, Idas, the prince of Messenia, came to Aetolia to woo Marpessa. Even though everybody knew him to be one of the two sons of Messenia’s king Aphareus, Idas was, in fact, a demigod, born nine months after Arene, Aphareus’ wife, had unknowingly slept with the disguised Poseidon.
  • According to Homer, he was the mightiest of men that were then upon the face of the earth;” according to other authors, he also owned a golden chariot drawn by winged horses, given to him once by his real father.
  • “Sparing your life, is enough of a reward for your victory.
  • However, Evenus refused to keep his word and declined to give his daughter’s hand in marriage to Idas. “Sparing your life,” he said to him, “is enough of a reward for your victory.” Idas thought otherwise: in the blink of an eye, he grabbed Marpessa and, not against her will, carried her off on his winged chariot.
