A young and mortal girl named Arachne has recently boasted to her village that she is a better weaver than Minerva. Arachne has even issued a challenge, claiming that she will beat Minerva in a weaving contest if the goddess has the courage to accept. Athena appears to accept her challenge. After weaving contest Arachne wins, Athena gets angry and turns into a spider that spins a web eternally ( not to leave it ever).
