Novella three - Saturn's moon Pandora and the story of the first human woman.Zeus, king of the Greek God's, commissioned his son Hephaestus to craft the first human woman. Aided by Athena, he carefully researched the perfect form and then moulded her from clay He then painted and glazed her into the perfect woman. After being fired in his kiln, she was given the breath of life by the wind god Zephyr. She was named Pandora, being the bearer of the gifts bequeathed to her by the gods and goddesses of Mount Olympus. Her main purpose for humanity was to become the role model for all future human women. Zeus then commanded that she be properly trained so that she can navigate life's complexities, but her tutors, Herme's and Aphrodite, do too good a job with her, and she quickly became too powerful for a normal human life. She is honoured at a civic function and introduced to the gods and goddesses of Mount Olympus. She presented with numerous gifts, jewellery, and words of wisdom that she keeps in a clay jar situated in a wooden box. Hera is cautious about Pandora and worries about her husband's intentions for this female. Zeus himself became disillusioned with her, and so he decided that she should be married off to a minor god, so that she'll do no harm to herself, or to others.Pandora's story is so significant that I have included it in this series of novellas. Pandora is not a constellation, but she is honoured as one of Saturn's moons.

Autorenporträt
Stephan De Jonghe Biography - I began my formal writing with a stage play titled "Death Warmed Up,' After being inspired by a close friend, Di Day, who I aided with her debut play as her stage manager. "Death Warmed up was a great learning experience for me and I appreciated the cast and crew who laboured with a stage production that lasted nearly three hours. I learned a lot from the experience and by the time the play was performed for second time it had been edited down to two hours. Everyone from cast, crew, and especially the audiences, had a great time, so I was inspired to write my next play "Death Warmed up." The one debuted better than the first so I quickly followed it up with a romantic comedy titled "A lovely lobster tale", and then a historical action sci-fi titled "The Culpeper Code". I also wrote one act plays with Free coffee getting the most recognition. A one act play that I wrote titled "Follicle Farm" became my inspiration for my first novel. The play was terrible, but the book that came from its ashes has received high praise and is described as a delightful and humourous fantasy adventure novel. It takes the reader on a whimsical journey into the microscopic world of the human body. It follows Bobby on a journey of self-discovery of how he tries to convince head-office to implement his discovery of how to reverse alopecia and greying hair. My next book, titled "Your concise guide to the meaning of life," comes from a lifelong habit of trying to help people get more meaning and enjoyment out of their lives. It is a serious book written in an easy-to-read style, with suggestions in point form so that the reader can improve their lives. It has received favourable reviews for a book of this genre. My interest level in Greek Mythology has been with me since I could read. I have also been fascinated with astronomy and astrology. Work, family and theatre have been my priorities, so until recently I've not been able to progress these interests. I now have four books published that combine these interests with another nine books in the pipeline.My website www.folliclefarm.com.au features my work and has some complimentary short stories set in the Follicle Farm universe. Enjoy. Stephan De Jonghe 28th of August 2024
