Just hit SEND on my Greek mythology manuscript 😊

Today's #MythologyMonday theme is metalworking. Coincidentally I was digging into the myth of Hephaestos, and came up with some tidbits.

When Zeus threw Hephaestos off Olympos (to punish him for trying to shield Hera from his wrath), the blacksmith god landed on the island of Lemnos and broke his leg.

The fun bit is, apparently the island was inhabited by fearsome pirates. They nursed Hephaestos back to health and gave him a home.

I want "Hephaestos and the pirates" to be a thing 😄

I feel the sudden urge to roll one of these into a wedding and see what happens. 😆
