What are the most heartbreaking/tragic scenes in Mythology?
For me it is the death of Cuchulainn (Irish Achilles) who straps himself to the post rather than die on his back and the raven drank his blood.
In the Illiad for some reason the creation of Achilles shield by the blacksmith god (can't remember his name) was amazing really struck me
