APOLLO & HYACINTHUS

Hyacinthus was a handsome Spartan Prince and the lover of the god Apollo. Apollo fell in love with Hyacinthus, Unfortunately, Apollo wasn't the only enamored deity. One of the winds, Zephyros or Boreas, was, as well. When Apollo and Hyacinthus were throwing the discus, the jealous wind made the discus Apollo had thrown bounce up and strike Hyacinthus.
Hyacinthus died, but from his blood sprang the flower that bears his name(hyacinthus).
Apollo asks Gods to make him immortal so blood sprang the flower...
enamered = aşık
deity = tanrı
