Niobe was a proud woman, and her husband Amphion was king of Thebes. The Muse gave him a beautiful ancient zither with beautiful sound. When he played it, even bricks and stones were automatically glued together to build the city wall of Thebes. Niobe's father, Tantalus, was a guest of the gods -- before he was sent to hell, of course. She ruled a powerful kingdom herself, and was famous for her beautiful and charming appearance. However, what made her most happy and proud was that she had seven sons and seven daughters. She was regarded as a lucky mother, and therefore complacent, but her arrogance and self-respect caused a fatal disaster.
One day, Manto, the daughter of Tiresias, a blind diviner, was instructed by God to call all the women of Thebes in the street to worship Leto and her twin children Apollo and Artemis. The arrogant Niobe not only didn't respect him, but also insulted Leto and his children. Thus, punishment begins. Her seven sons died in the martial arts arena outside the city gate. When Enfeiweng heard the bad news, he was so sad that he pulled out his sword and killed himself. At this time, her seven daughters came to her in mourning clothes. She looked at the sky with no remorse and laughed, "No, even if I was unlucky, I would be better than your happiness; even if I was unlucky, I would still be richer than you and a strong man!" As soon as the words fell, the daughters also died one after another. Niobe sat alone among the bodies of her husband, seven sons, and seven daughters. She was so sad that she suddenly became stiff: her hair did not move in the wind, her face lost its color, and her eyes stared blankly. Life left her body, blood froze in the blood vessels, and the pulse stopped beating. Niobe turned into a cold stone, and his whole body was completely hardened, except for tears in his rigid eyes. A whirlwind blew her into the air and across the sea, and sent her to the hometown of Niobe, where she was placed on a barren mountain in Lydia. Below was the cliff of Zephyrus. Niobe has become a stone statue, standing quietly on the mountain peak, and is still sad until now tear [1]
