Btw, you guys should totally check out Sophocles' Ichneutae, even though it remains in fragments. Besides being a comedy, it also has Apollo being really sad over his lost cows and wandering all over Greece in search of them
(Trans. Richard Johnson Walker)
Just...Apollo and his cows 🥹
#apollo#the plot is Silenus and his children helping Apollo find his missing cows#but it has some major deviation from the usual versions of the myths#for example... Dionysus is born before Hermes and is the master of Silenus#Pan also already exists#but oh well... it's a comedy and it does well as one#Cyllene is especially hilarious#Sophocles#mine
