Your question Which version of the story is true?

The spread

  1. The figure who set it up Hestia The hearth, the centre of a house, and the stability nobody thanks. What to avoid: Staying so centred that nothing moves.
  2. The figure in the room Hermes Messages, negotiations, and the trade that benefits both sides. What to avoid: Charm as a substitute for commitment.
  3. The figure who leaves Artemis Independence, the forest and a life that does not need an audience. What to avoid: Solitude defended past the point of need.

Under the sky over Washington, D.C., the myth begins with an old bargain, and the bargain is still being honoured by habit.

Hermes holds the middle and points at the figure of love, in its least romantic and most practical form.

Then the reading names the exit, and notes that in most versions of this story it was available from the start.
