Chapter 47

• "It is explained that the word Nemesis nowadays has the meaning of a just or divine retribution, a long"awaited or postponed punishment, or a form of poetic justice. It is also common to see it used as a synonym for enemy or end.""
• Nemesis wanted to bring suffering and agony to Aphrodite for the multiple infidelities she had caused centuries ago at the request of thousands of women. But she would not achieve it easily, so she resorted to her secret weapon.
• The story of Apollo begins a few years before his birth. The king of Cyprus had a daughter and he proclaimed to the four winds that she was the most beautiful being in the world. This statement did not sit well with the goddess Aphrodite, so as a revenge, she sent a curse that would make the king and his daughter the princess engage in incestuous relationships.
