Athena, the Goddess of Wisdom, War and Craft, has her mother Metis’s intelligence and her father Zeus’s determination. She is the last being anyone should challenge to a competition – least of all a human.
In a moment of carelessness, Arachne challenges Athena to see whose ability to spin and weave fabrics is the best. Zeus will decide the winner, and the loser will never spin or weave again. Or will they?
