ERO & LEANDER
Hero & Leander met and fell in love....
Hero was a priestess of Aphrodite, and with her religious calling she was forbidden to marry her love.
They kept their affair a secret and Leander swam the channel to Hero each night guided by a light she kept in her tower..... one night her light blew out in a storm and Leander who was swimming to her lost his sense of direction and drowned.
When his body washed ashore, Hero threw herself from her tower and died.
