Psyche Continued

Psyche was sent back down to Earth, but she didn't go back to her parents kingdom. She was determined to find Eros and win him back.

Psyche traveled far away. Once, she found a beat up and abandoned temple to Hera, which she immediately put her search for Eros on hold to clean up, because Psyche was a very kind person who respected her gods.

After cleaning it up, Hera showed herself to Psyche, saying that she would reward her for cleaning up the temple.

"Please! I just want one thing!" She cried. "To see my beloved Eros again!"

Hera shook her head sadly. "I'm sorry. Aphrodite forbids Eros from you, and I can't fight another god. But when you do need help or guidance, I will be there to help."

So Psyche went on her way. She found another abandoned temple, which after cleaning up she found was a temple to Demeter.

Demeter arrived, and gave Psyche a wish, such as Hera. And Psyche wished for the same thing, but Demeter answered just like Hera.

Psyche went on, but was beginning to give up hope of being able to find Eros again.
