This is a story of beauty and tragedy. Orpheus was the best musician that ever lived. His music was said to be so beautiful that it would soothe animals. He married to Eurydice. Aristaeus tried to violate her and while she was trying to scape she fell and was biten by a snake and died. Orpheus was so sad that he decided to go for her to the underworld. Hades would return Eurydice to Orpheus, but warned him very carefully: Eurydice would follow him into the light of the world and once she entered the sunlight she would be changed from a shade back to a woman. But if Orpheus looked back to see her, she would be lost to him forever. He could not resist and she disappear forever. The rest of his life he spend it playing songs that called for death.
