Egyptian mythology is the collection of myths from ancient Egypt, which describe the actions of the Egyptian gods as a means of understanding the world. The beliefs that these myths express are an important part of ancient Egyptian religion. Myths appear frequently in Egyptian writings and art, particularly in short stories and in religious material such as hymns, ritual texts, funerary texts, and temple decoration. These sources rarely contain a complete account of a myth and often describe only brief fragments.

MYTHOLOGY MEME: three locations - troy [3/3]
One prophesied that Troy would be burnt by Paris’s fire …I was happy to leave, right away, for Aegean waters,but father and mother stopped me, asking for my prayers and delaying my going by their pious intent: and my sister Cassandra, just as she was, with hair unbound, cried out, as our ships were ready to sail: ‘Where are you rushing to? You’ll bring fire back with you!You don’t know how great the flames are you seek in those waters!’ (x)](http://25.media.tumblr.com/cb3b63d87ceb05aaa7dd865cfc92043e/tumblr_mkppu5kAEt1qh82ajo1_500.png)

One prophesied that Troy would be burnt by Paris’s fire …
I was happy to leave, right away, for Aegean waters,
but father and mother stopped me, asking for my prayers
and delaying my going by their pious intent:
and my sister Cassandra, just as she was, with hair unbound,
cried out, as our ships were ready to sail:
‘Where are you rushing to? You’ll bring fire back with you!
You don’t know how great the flames are you seek in those waters!’ (x)
