She was the apple of her father's eye, beloved by the sternest man in the world. But when a young prince from faraway Athens appears, she is lovestruck. Ariadne betrays her family in exchange for marrying Theseus, but as soon as she delivers on her promises, Theseus abandons her on the deserted island of Naxos, leaving her to starve to death. Her story would end there, were it not for the attention of a peculiar god who takes an interest in her and gives her life anew.
