MY ANSWER: (Old legend of Orpheus and Eurydice concerns the critical love of Orpheus of Thrace, child of Apollo and the dream Calliope, for the excellent Eurydice. Might be a late expansion to the Orpheus legends, as the last religion title recommends those connected to Persephone. Orpheus and Eurydice's marriage is bound from the earliest starting point. Hymen, the Greek divine force of marriage, doesn't favor their wedding, and Eurydice kicks the bucket not long after it while escaping from a relentless suitor. As crushed, Orpheus goes to the Underworld to breath life into Eurydice back.)
