These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated: 1 00:00:00,208 --> 00:00:03,878 (dramatic orchestral music) 2 00:00:33,260 --> 00:00:35,050 - [Narrator] In a kingdom far, far away, 3 00:00:35,050 --> 00:00:37,030 the king and queen had three daughters. 4 00:00:38,940 --> 00:00:42,130 All three of them were beautiful, but while the charms 5 00:00:42,130 --> 00:00:43,990 of the eldest two drew praise, 6 00:00:43,990 --> 00:00:46,790 the beauty of the youngest was beyond words. 7 00:00:49,980 --> 00:00:52,280 Even the guards when they met her couldn't help 8 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:54,260 but to compare her to the most sublime 9 00:00:54,260 --> 00:00:57,050 of goddesses, Aphrodite. 10 00:00:57,052 --> 00:01:00,392 (soft orchestral music) 11 00:01:05,890 --> 00:01:08,360 The two elder sisters had already wed. 12 00:01:09,320 --> 00:01:12,130 Not to just anyone, to noble princes. 13 00:01:15,340 --> 00:01:17,910 But strangely, Psyche was yet to marry. 14 00:01:22,980 --> 00:01:26,130 Suitors came to contemplate and admire her, 15 00:01:26,130 --> 00:01:29,350 but none had the courage to ask for her hand. 16 00:01:29,350 --> 00:01:31,900 It was said that the suitors were too over awed 17 00:01:31,900 --> 00:01:33,860 by her near-divine beauty. 18 00:01:36,118 --> 00:01:39,448 (soft orchestral music) 19 00:01:43,230 --> 00:01:47,010 Meanwhile, up on Mount Olympus, she whom the gods had named 20 00:01:47,010 --> 00:01:50,290 the goddess of beauty, Aphrodite, was fuming. 21 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:58,290 She viewed this spectacle as an offense and sacrilege. 22 00:01:58,290 --> 00:02:01,170 Down on Earth, her admirers were ignoring her, 23 00:02:01,170 --> 00:02:04,060 believing they had found in Psyche a new divinity. 24 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,190 So Aphrodite hatched a plot to quickly get rid 25 00:02:10,187 --> 00:02:11,497 of her rival. 26 00:02:13,089 --> 00:02:16,419 (soft orchestral music) 27 00:02:18,870 --> 00:02:22,270 With a click of her fingers, Aphrodite summoned Eros, 28 00:02:22,270 --> 00:02:23,490 the god of love. 29 00:02:24,390 --> 00:02:26,510 Eros was a god of lonely birth. 30 00:02:26,510 --> 00:02:29,630 He wasn't like Aphrodite, Apollo and Athena, 31 00:02:29,630 --> 00:02:31,400 one of the 12 Olympians. 32 00:02:38,330 --> 00:02:41,190 Neither was he a direct descendant of Zeus. 33 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,750 He was conceived on the day Aphrodite made her 34 00:02:44,750 --> 00:02:46,570 official entrance on Olympus. 35 00:02:51,090 --> 00:02:53,650 To mark the event, a great feast was held. 36 00:02:54,740 --> 00:02:58,170 Zeus invited all of the deities, even though who were old 37 00:02:58,170 --> 00:02:59,720 and usually left out. 38 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:04,700 Among them was Porus, the god of wealth and abundance. 39 00:03:08,250 --> 00:03:11,330 More than the other guests, Porus stuffed himself 40 00:03:11,330 --> 00:03:15,780 with delicious food and wine served in honor of Aphrodite. 41 00:03:15,780 --> 00:03:19,600 Then once full, he laid down beneath a great oak tree 42 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,500 and fell asleep. 43 00:03:21,500 --> 00:03:25,760 Just then, Penia, goddess of poverty, made her entrance. 44 00:03:27,210 --> 00:03:30,020 She had come to beg for food at the end of the feast 45 00:03:30,017 --> 00:03:33,987 as her divine nature allowed, but when she set eyes 46 00:03:33,990 --> 00:03:37,590 on Porus in all his opulence, she thought that she might, 47 00:03:37,590 --> 00:03:40,750 by joining with him, escape the miserable fate 48 00:03:40,750 --> 00:03:45,580 that destiny had cast on her, so she laid down beside him. 49 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:53,210 And thus, a few months later, Eros was born out of the love 50 00:03:53,210 --> 00:03:55,050 between Porus and Penia. 51 00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:00,610 Love and desire were thus the fruit of wealth and poverty, 52 00:04:00,610 --> 00:04:02,510 of abundance and penury. 53 00:04:04,624 --> 00:04:07,964 (soft orchestral music) 54 00:04:13,460 --> 00:04:16,850 Aphrodite appointed Eros the messenger of love. 55 00:04:17,730 --> 00:04:20,520 She inspired passion and Eros in the service 56 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,730 of the goddess had the task of forming couples. 57 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:27,990 With a golden arrow to inflame hearts 58 00:04:27,990 --> 00:04:29,960 and a lead arrow to make his victims 59 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:31,900 forever insensitive to love. 60 00:04:39,436 --> 00:04:42,306 That morning, Aphrodite commissioned Eros 61 00:04:42,310 --> 00:04:46,720 to inspire in Psyche a hopeless, sickening, mad love 62 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,020 for one of the ugliest, despicable mortals alive. 63 00:04:53,900 --> 00:04:57,020 A monster, she ordered, a hideous creature. 64 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:02,220 Eros obeyed. 65 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:09,740 He left, armed with his bow and arrows. 66 00:05:11,850 --> 00:05:14,460 When he discovered Psyche, she was sleeping. 67 00:05:16,340 --> 00:05:20,060 Eros stopped dead in his tracks in awe. 68 00:05:20,060 --> 00:05:23,530 Never had he seen a being of such beauty. 69 00:05:23,530 --> 00:05:25,520 Psyche was perfection. 70 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,140 He now understood Aphrodite's jealousy. 71 00:05:32,810 --> 00:05:37,580 In his stricken state, he tripped and fell, 72 00:05:37,580 --> 00:05:41,860 wounding himself with one of his arrows, the golden one. 73 00:05:46,060 --> 00:05:50,710 So there was Eros, ironically madly enamored with his prey. 74 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:56,300 He returned to Olympus in a state of agitation. 75 00:05:56,300 --> 00:05:58,800 He languished, aching with love, 76 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,960 attempting to keep his suffering a secret from Aphrodite 77 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,190 lest she become mad with rage. 78 00:06:05,153 --> 00:06:08,493 (soft orchestral music) 79 00:06:11,780 --> 00:06:14,130 Meanwhile, Psyche was no better off. 80 00:06:15,460 --> 00:06:18,770 She was suffering too, but for a different reason. 81 00:06:19,940 --> 00:06:23,420 She was becoming more and more tearful as time passed 82 00:06:23,420 --> 00:06:25,480 and there was still no one in her life. 83 00:06:28,700 --> 00:06:31,460 In despair, her father visited the temple 84 00:06:31,460 --> 00:06:34,750 of Apollo at Delphi to consult the oracle. 85 00:06:34,750 --> 00:06:37,690 How could he find a husband for his youngest daughter? 86 00:06:43,290 --> 00:06:46,130 The Oracle of Delphi was the Pythia, 87 00:06:46,130 --> 00:06:49,510 a priestess who passed on the will of the gods to mortals. 88 00:06:51,210 --> 00:06:55,430 That day, a deity, or was it a certain goddess, 89 00:06:55,430 --> 00:06:58,190 uttered this terrifying reply to the Pythia. 90 00:06:59,090 --> 00:07:02,010 Psyche must be dressed as if for her wedding, 91 00:07:02,010 --> 00:07:05,260 then left on a hilltop where her future husband, 92 00:07:05,260 --> 00:07:07,750 a terrible monster will come to claim her. 93 00:07:08,672 --> 00:07:12,012 (soft orchestral music) 94 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,620 The king was devastated. 95 00:07:15,620 --> 00:07:19,040 Not for an instant could he imagine abandoning his child, 96 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,180 let alone giving her up to some fearsome creature. 97 00:07:22,180 --> 00:07:24,210 Surely no father could do that. 98 00:07:30,310 --> 00:07:34,050 And yet, knowing he could not disobey the will of the gods, 99 00:07:34,050 --> 00:07:36,060 he led his daughter in her wedding dress 100 00:07:36,064 --> 00:07:39,054 and accompanied by a funereal cortege, 101 00:07:39,050 --> 00:07:42,760 to the top of a hill, and after, a final kiss. 102 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:45,550 Her tearful parents returned to their palace. 103 00:07:52,850 --> 00:07:55,010 So Psyche was abandoned. 104 00:07:56,210 --> 00:07:58,190 Suddenly, she felt a breeze. 105 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,060 It lifted her from the ground, carried her gently 106 00:08:04,060 --> 00:08:07,420 into the air and through the clouds before delicately 107 00:08:07,420 --> 00:08:10,880 posing her in a small valley on a carpet of green. 108 00:08:11,754 --> 00:08:15,594 (enchanting orchestral music) 109 00:08:16,530 --> 00:08:18,310 Barely had she regained her senses, 110 00:08:18,310 --> 00:08:20,340 then another surprise awaited her. 111 00:08:21,229 --> 00:08:25,059 (enchanting orchestral music) 112 00:08:30,570 --> 00:08:34,370 There, before her eyes, stood a sublime palace 113 00:08:34,370 --> 00:08:37,420 in marble and gold, set in a garden full 114 00:08:37,420 --> 00:08:39,220 of magnificent trees. 115 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,260 The place was deserted, but the doors, 116 00:08:45,260 --> 00:08:48,530 studded with gemstones, opened by themselves, 117 00:08:48,530 --> 00:08:52,400 accompanied by soft, magical, welcoming voices, 118 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:55,220 inviting her in to visit her new home. 119 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,620 Strangely, Psyche felt no fear. 120 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:05,240 She began visiting the palace, going from surprise 121 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,690 to surprise, wonder to wonder. 122 00:09:10,190 --> 00:09:12,920 That night, still in a state of awe, 123 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:16,460 she reached a sumptuous bedroom clearly meant for her. 124 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:22,720 She climbed into bed and immediately fell asleep. 125 00:09:25,830 --> 00:09:27,690 Suddenly, in the middle of the night, 126 00:09:27,690 --> 00:09:29,820 she sensed a presence. 127 00:09:29,820 --> 00:09:32,950 Someone was treading in the darkness. 128 00:09:32,950 --> 00:09:37,280 It had to be the monster prophesied by the oracle. 129 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,530 Seated with panic, Psyche threw off the sheets, 130 00:09:39,530 --> 00:09:41,220 ready to flee. 131 00:09:41,220 --> 00:09:45,600 Then came a voice which in a reassuring tone whispered, 132 00:09:45,597 --> 00:09:46,667 "Fear not. 133 00:09:46,669 --> 00:09:49,119 "I'm your husband. 134 00:09:49,117 --> 00:09:51,527 "All I wish for is your happiness. 135 00:09:52,477 --> 00:09:53,817 "Trust me. 136 00:09:53,817 --> 00:09:57,977 "But one thing, never seek to see my face. 137 00:09:57,977 --> 00:10:01,517 "Otherwise, you will lose me forever." 138 00:10:01,517 --> 00:10:04,097 (soft orchestral music) 139 00:10:04,100 --> 00:10:07,640 Psyche, astonished yet touched, promised to uphold 140 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,300 this strange vow, for the monster, 141 00:10:10,300 --> 00:10:13,100 rather than terrify her, had comforted her. 142 00:10:15,380 --> 00:10:19,140 The shadows slid into her bed, took her in his arms, 143 00:10:19,140 --> 00:10:21,080 and covered her with soft kisses. 144 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,870 Overwhelmed, Psyche gave into love. 145 00:10:39,990 --> 00:10:43,220 The next morning, when Psyche awoke, she was alone. 146 00:10:47,150 --> 00:10:48,720 And she would be during daylight 147 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,430 for every day that followed. 148 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:56,060 But at every nightfall, her husband came to her. 149 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,480 She kept her vow to never seek to see his face. 150 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:07,140 And she even surprised herself by enjoying more and more 151 00:11:07,139 --> 00:11:08,829 their loving embraces. 152 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:19,160 But time passed and questions began to torment her. 153 00:11:20,980 --> 00:11:23,730 Psyche was suffering from loneliness, 154 00:11:23,730 --> 00:11:25,760 and she missed her parents and sisters. 155 00:11:26,710 --> 00:11:28,590 For how long could she live like this, 156 00:11:28,590 --> 00:11:31,540 in this vast palace inhabited by distant voices 157 00:11:31,544 --> 00:11:33,604 and an invisible husband? 158 00:11:37,750 --> 00:11:41,800 One night, she begged for permission to break her vow, 159 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:45,170 not forever, but for just a few days. 160 00:11:45,170 --> 00:11:47,140 But her mysterious husband refused. 161 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:50,960 Psyche persisted with her plea. 162 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:55,210 Finally her lover yielded, but made her promise 163 00:11:55,210 --> 00:11:56,770 that she would give no answer 164 00:11:56,770 --> 00:11:58,910 to any questions asked about him. 165 00:11:59,930 --> 00:12:01,690 And Psyche gave her promise. 166 00:12:07,680 --> 00:12:09,950 The southern breeze wafted her back to the hilltop 167 00:12:09,950 --> 00:12:12,480 where she had been left, just a stone's throw 168 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:13,820 from her family home. 169 00:12:18,050 --> 00:12:21,290 On seeing their daughter who many believed lost forever, 170 00:12:21,293 --> 00:12:23,273 Psyche's parents were overjoyed. 171 00:12:24,110 --> 00:12:27,160 A feast was given to mark her return safe and sound. 172 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,080 Her sisters were also delighted. 173 00:12:33,090 --> 00:12:35,670 But when she began describing her magical palace 174 00:12:35,670 --> 00:12:38,230 and the countless gifts offered by her husband, 175 00:12:38,230 --> 00:12:40,510 they became green with envy. 176 00:12:44,740 --> 00:12:46,850 With one treacherous question after another, 177 00:12:46,850 --> 00:12:49,530 the sisters finally have Psyche admit the truth. 178 00:12:50,930 --> 00:12:53,550 No, she has never seen her husband's face. 179 00:12:55,740 --> 00:12:58,630 They begin to revel in their discovery. 180 00:12:58,630 --> 00:13:01,920 He must be frightful because he refuses to show himself. 181 00:13:02,900 --> 00:13:05,080 They tell Psyche about a terrifying serpent 182 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:08,230 which can open its jaws like an abyss. 183 00:13:08,230 --> 00:13:11,780 They persuade her that one night, it will surely devour her. 184 00:13:13,261 --> 00:13:15,571 (tense orchestral music) 185 00:13:15,570 --> 00:13:18,030 Psyche was so frightened by what she had heard 186 00:13:18,030 --> 00:13:19,810 that she became racked with doubt. 187 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:25,640 She wanted to know the truth. 188 00:13:32,650 --> 00:13:36,050 On returning to her palace, she awaited like every night, 189 00:13:36,050 --> 00:13:37,290 her husband's visit. 190 00:13:41,550 --> 00:13:45,050 As per usual, he slid into the bed beside her. 191 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:48,540 But this time, after their lovemaking, 192 00:13:48,544 --> 00:13:50,084 he dozed off. 193 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:54,140 Psyche crept out of bed, lit a candle, 194 00:13:54,136 --> 00:13:57,066 and spread light onto her husband's face. 195 00:13:58,150 --> 00:14:00,110 And what a surprise. 196 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:05,310 Before her slept the most handsome man 197 00:14:05,310 --> 00:14:07,400 anyone had ever set eyes on. 198 00:14:08,470 --> 00:14:11,380 But even more astonishing, this so-called monster 199 00:14:11,380 --> 00:14:14,250 was none other than the god Eros. 200 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:18,760 Overwrought, Psyche's hand began to tremble 201 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,160 and a drop of hot wax fell from the candle 202 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,070 onto the sleeper's shoulder. 203 00:14:23,070 --> 00:14:24,660 He woke with a start. 204 00:14:24,660 --> 00:14:26,860 Their eyes met and in a flash, 205 00:14:26,860 --> 00:14:29,630 furious at having been betrayed, he vanished, 206 00:14:29,629 --> 00:14:31,619 just as he had warned her. 207 00:14:40,220 --> 00:14:43,460 Psyche sprinted from the room, followed every corridor, 208 00:14:43,460 --> 00:14:46,980 searching every room, scouring every corner. 209 00:14:46,980 --> 00:14:49,750 Even the welcoming voices had disappeared. 210 00:14:49,750 --> 00:14:52,190 The palace was plunged into darkness. 211 00:14:59,570 --> 00:15:03,640 At daybreak, the despairing Psyche ran out into the open. 212 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,970 (soft orchestral music) 213 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:13,720 She finally reached a river and halted on its banks. 214 00:15:15,210 --> 00:15:17,250 She broke down in tears. 215 00:15:17,250 --> 00:15:19,460 Not only had she lost a husband, 216 00:15:19,460 --> 00:15:22,780 she had lost love, the worst punishment ever. 217 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:34,060 Exhausted, Psyche decided enough was enough 218 00:15:34,060 --> 00:15:37,570 and flung herself into the fast flowing waters. 219 00:15:37,570 --> 00:15:38,870 But barely a moment later, 220 00:15:38,870 --> 00:15:41,280 the compassionate river lifted her up 221 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,290 and placed her gently on the bank. 222 00:15:44,237 --> 00:15:47,067 (water splashing) 223 00:15:48,750 --> 00:15:52,170 Before her, a strange creature suddenly appeared, 224 00:15:52,170 --> 00:15:54,240 half man, half goat. 225 00:15:56,430 --> 00:16:00,120 The god Pan, god of shepherd and the pastures. 226 00:16:01,380 --> 00:16:03,350 Pan usually liked to scare those 227 00:16:03,350 --> 00:16:05,850 who wandered into the woods, but for once, 228 00:16:05,848 --> 00:16:09,128 he felt for this young woman wholeheartedly. 229 00:16:15,310 --> 00:16:18,000 If she was willing to overcome all obstacles, 230 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:21,030 she would surely end up winning back the heart of Eros. 231 00:16:22,168 --> 00:16:25,308 (soft orchestral music) 232 00:16:25,310 --> 00:16:27,840 Psyche let herself believe the words of Pan. 233 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,640 She continued on her quest, going from temple to temple 234 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:38,820 and praying for the return of her love. 235 00:16:42,860 --> 00:16:45,550 But the gods were weary of Aphrodite's wrath. 236 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:50,390 Besides, the goddess was watching, waiting for her revenge. 237 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,840 Aphrodite still considered Psyche to be her rival. 238 00:16:58,770 --> 00:17:02,980 She loomed before her, finally face to face. 239 00:17:02,980 --> 00:17:04,580 The goddess and the mortal. 240 00:17:07,150 --> 00:17:09,720 Aphrodite declared to Psyche that from then on, 241 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:13,380 she would be her slave and that she would be spared nothing. 242 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:17,680 The goddess pointed to a rock at the top 243 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:19,490 of a steep mountain. 244 00:17:19,490 --> 00:17:22,810 Close by was a spring from which brackish waters flowed 245 00:17:22,810 --> 00:17:26,040 down into the Styx, the river of the Underworld. 246 00:17:27,540 --> 00:17:30,780 Aphrodite gave Psyche a small flask and the task 247 00:17:30,780 --> 00:17:33,710 of climbing to the spring, filling it with its water 248 00:17:33,709 --> 00:17:35,599 and bringing it back to her. 249 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:38,690 Psyche agreed. 250 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:41,980 She started climbing the mountain. 251 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,260 The summit seemed inaccessible. 252 00:17:46,780 --> 00:17:50,620 The rough, slippery rocks were peopled by ferocious dragons. 253 00:17:52,090 --> 00:17:54,550 All around her, voices rang out in warning, 254 00:17:54,550 --> 00:17:56,730 advising her to give up her quest. 255 00:17:59,470 --> 00:18:02,950 But she refused and continued on her way. 256 00:18:02,950 --> 00:18:05,310 In her mind were the words of the god Pan, 257 00:18:05,310 --> 00:18:07,720 willing her to overcome all obstacles if she wanted 258 00:18:07,717 --> 00:18:10,107 to win back the heart of Eros. 259 00:18:15,460 --> 00:18:17,400 Just then, an eagle appeared. 260 00:18:18,300 --> 00:18:21,050 It was the eagle of Zeus, king of the gods. 261 00:18:21,940 --> 00:18:25,080 Also moved by her charge, it snatched her flask 262 00:18:25,082 --> 00:18:27,812 and flew off to fill it with the brackish water 263 00:18:27,810 --> 00:18:29,820 before returning it to Psyche. 264 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,370 Aphrodite was furious. 265 00:18:34,370 --> 00:18:36,880 First Pan and now Zeus. 266 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,670 She wondered if Eros could be urging the gods of Olympus 267 00:18:39,670 --> 00:18:43,380 to protect his lover, but that would be impossible. 268 00:18:43,380 --> 00:18:45,760 As punishment for having followed the Psyche, 269 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,850 Aphrodite had him imprisoned in a double tower 270 00:18:48,850 --> 00:18:50,280 within her palace. 271 00:18:53,157 --> 00:18:55,497 (tense orchestral music) 272 00:18:55,500 --> 00:18:58,430 Aphrodite was even more enraged. 273 00:18:58,430 --> 00:19:01,200 She gave her rival a gilded box and ordered her 274 00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:02,850 to visit the Underworld. 275 00:19:06,580 --> 00:19:08,070 Psyche faltered. 276 00:19:10,900 --> 00:19:13,580 The Underworld, the shades of hell. 277 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,360 No mortal had ever been able to go there 278 00:19:19,360 --> 00:19:23,130 without being devoured by its terrifying guard Cerberus, 279 00:19:23,130 --> 00:19:25,040 a monstrous three-headed hound. 280 00:19:30,490 --> 00:19:33,780 Reigning over the Underworld was a redoubtable couple, 281 00:19:33,780 --> 00:19:35,930 Hades and his consort Persephone. 282 00:19:36,942 --> 00:19:40,102 (dark orchestral music) 283 00:19:40,100 --> 00:19:42,290 And it was Persephone that Aphrodite 284 00:19:42,290 --> 00:19:44,170 had ordered Psyche to visit. 285 00:19:46,330 --> 00:19:49,070 She was supposed to give her the box and to tell her, 286 00:19:49,067 --> 00:19:51,887 "Aphrodite begs a little of your beauty." 287 00:19:53,646 --> 00:19:56,976 (soft orchestral music) 288 00:19:59,970 --> 00:20:02,060 The terrified Psyche was convinced 289 00:20:02,060 --> 00:20:04,180 that she would never fulfill her task 290 00:20:04,181 --> 00:20:07,471 and decided to free herself from Aphrodite's torments 291 00:20:07,471 --> 00:20:10,141 by putting an end to her days. 292 00:20:13,540 --> 00:20:15,340 So she climbed to the top of a tower 293 00:20:15,340 --> 00:20:18,250 and was ready to fling herself off, when suddenly, 294 00:20:18,250 --> 00:20:21,510 the tower itself addressed her and persuaded her not 295 00:20:21,510 --> 00:20:22,570 to give up her life. 296 00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:29,540 The tower even told her how to accomplish her mission. 297 00:20:32,510 --> 00:20:36,510 To Cerberus, she should offer cakes soaked in drugged wine. 298 00:20:40,020 --> 00:20:43,690 To Charon, the ferryman, two coins for a return trip 299 00:20:43,690 --> 00:20:45,370 across the river Styx. 300 00:20:47,370 --> 00:20:50,200 But most importantly, concluded the tower, 301 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:54,100 she must never open the box entrusted to her by Aphrodite 302 00:20:54,100 --> 00:20:57,690 and must refuse any treat Persephone might offer her. 303 00:20:57,690 --> 00:21:00,700 Because any mortal who tastes the fruit of the dead 304 00:21:00,700 --> 00:21:03,930 will be condemned to live in hell for eternity. 305 00:21:07,550 --> 00:21:10,960 Psyche acquiesced and ascended into the abyss. 306 00:21:14,380 --> 00:21:16,560 As planned, the played Charon his due 307 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,800 and successfully tricked Cerberus. 308 00:21:21,570 --> 00:21:22,880 The path was clear. 309 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:27,970 Soon, a vast room opened up before her. 310 00:21:29,870 --> 00:21:33,680 Seated on her throne next to Hades was Persephone 311 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:35,370 who bid her come hither. 312 00:21:36,690 --> 00:21:39,290 Psyche duly obliged. 313 00:21:39,290 --> 00:21:42,510 She handed her the box and delivered Aphrodite's message. 314 00:21:44,010 --> 00:21:47,490 Against all expectations, rather than punish the intruder, 315 00:21:47,490 --> 00:21:50,690 the queen of the Underworld was flattered. 316 00:21:50,690 --> 00:21:53,890 She who had been thought the most beautiful of all goddesses 317 00:21:53,890 --> 00:21:57,280 now considered Persephone to be even more beautiful. 318 00:21:58,461 --> 00:22:02,071 In a flash, she flew into the box, leaving a part of 319 00:22:02,070 --> 00:22:04,710 her beauty and handed it back to Psyche. 320 00:22:05,970 --> 00:22:09,640 (tranquil orchestral music) 321 00:22:12,270 --> 00:22:15,200 On her way back, her task completed, 322 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,550 Psyche was overwhelmed with an irresistible desire. 323 00:22:19,970 --> 00:22:22,580 What if Persephone's beauty were to enable her 324 00:22:22,580 --> 00:22:25,100 to win back the heart of her lost lover? 325 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:30,670 She opened the gilded box. 326 00:22:34,270 --> 00:22:36,990 And was suddenly overcome with dizziness. 327 00:22:38,074 --> 00:22:41,414 (soft orchestral music) 328 00:22:44,110 --> 00:22:47,650 She fell into a deep and endless sleep. 329 00:22:50,020 --> 00:22:52,200 Psyche was dead. 330 00:22:59,770 --> 00:23:03,010 Eros had seen everything and had to react. 331 00:23:03,010 --> 00:23:06,610 He escaped from Aphrodite's palace and scaled Mount Olympus 332 00:23:06,610 --> 00:23:07,970 to plead with Zeus. 333 00:23:10,330 --> 00:23:12,070 He knelt before the king of the gods 334 00:23:12,070 --> 00:23:14,280 and beseeched his forgiveness. 335 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:17,380 Yes, he had disobeyed Aphrodite by succumbing 336 00:23:17,380 --> 00:23:19,730 to the mortal charms of the goddess's rival. 337 00:23:22,470 --> 00:23:25,120 But Psyche, he said, had suffered enough. 338 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:30,540 Eros believed she was highly deserving of immortality 339 00:23:30,540 --> 00:23:33,690 and he would wed her according to divine order. 340 00:23:33,693 --> 00:23:37,033 (soft orchestral music) 341 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,240 Eros pleaded his case with such dexterity 342 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:43,880 that Zeus was swayed. 343 00:23:45,810 --> 00:23:48,340 He forgave Eros and agreed to greet Psyche 344 00:23:48,340 --> 00:23:50,500 as an immortal on Olympus. 345 00:23:54,110 --> 00:23:57,970 Eros sought out his beloved, gently leaned over her, 346 00:23:57,970 --> 00:24:02,970 planted a kiss on her lips, and Psyche awoke. 347 00:24:03,453 --> 00:24:06,953 (tender orchestral music) 348 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:25,300 Eros lifted her up and carried her to the home of the gods 349 00:24:25,298 --> 00:24:29,158 where Zeus greeted her as promised. 350 00:24:29,159 --> 00:24:31,579 (soft music) 351 00:24:34,890 --> 00:24:36,920 Aphrodite was also present. 352 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:41,530 She realized her combat had been in vain, 353 00:24:41,530 --> 00:24:44,900 that it would be impossible to separate the two lovers 354 00:24:44,897 --> 00:24:48,097 and so surrendered in the face of such infinite power. 355 00:24:50,023 --> 00:24:52,443 (soft music) 356 00:24:56,380 --> 00:24:59,700 Then, in the presence of all the gathered deities, 357 00:24:59,700 --> 00:25:03,010 Psyche was invited to drink ambrosia, 358 00:25:03,010 --> 00:25:04,720 the nectar of the gods. 359 00:25:07,950 --> 00:25:10,670 Since that day, it's said that a soul 360 00:25:10,670 --> 00:25:12,450 which wanders the earth in search 361 00:25:12,450 --> 00:25:17,000 of perfect love will only find it in the afterlife. 362 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:21,440 Just as Psyche could only reunite with Eros after her death 363 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:25,910 on Olympus where she now sits amongst the gods. 364 00:25:25,906 --> 00:25:29,236 (soft orchestral music) 365 00:25:37,177 --> 00:25:40,837 (dramatic orchestral music) 27579
