The Legend of "Cupid and Psyche".

Eros is a complex and powerful character in Greek mythology, playing a central role in understanding love, desire, and human nature. His figure has become a cultural icon and continues to influence art, literature, and philosophy through the ages.

Psyche, a young princess of dazzling beauty, arouses the jealousy of Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty. Aphrodite orders her son, Eros (or Cupid), the god of love, to make Psyche fall in love with the ugliest man. However, Eros himself falls in love with Psyche and hides her in an enchanted palace.

Psyche, cursed by Aphrodite, is offered as a sacrifice. Eros saves her and secretly visits her every night, without revealing his identity. One day, Psyche tries to discover who he is, but Eros flees. Psyche then embarks on a quest to find him, completing difficult trials.

After triumphing over all the trials, Psyche finds Eros and becomes an immortal goddess. Their love is blessed by the gods, and they live happily ever after.

This legend evokes love, beauty, trials, and the triumph of true love, making "Cupid and Psyche" one of the most romantic stories in Greek mythology.
