The Legend of Aurora
Aurora的传说
一个传承千百年的名字——奥罗拉是古希腊的曙光女神，她在将光明带往人间的时候，爱上了忧郁的特洛伊王子提托诺斯，并将王子带回了奥林匹斯山。月亮女神阿尔忒弥斯帮助她将王子藏了起来，并告诉她去宙斯的神殿祈求王子得到长寿。奥罗拉向宙斯祈求了王子的长寿，却忘记了祈求他的永葆青春。于是王子迅速地老去，离开了奥罗拉，返回到人间。但是奥罗拉为他生下了孩子，想把孩子留在奥林匹斯山，可是宙斯不同意。趁奥罗拉不在，宙斯把孩子带到了人间，奥罗拉为此悲痛欲绝，却毫无办法。因为女神的悲伤，世界失去了光明。最后奥罗拉被宙斯劝说，继续为人间带来光明。

When she brought the light to the world, she fell in love with the prince of Troy, Tithonus who was a gloomy man. Aurora brought Tithonus to Olympus, as Tithonus was a mortal, Artemis, goddess of the moon helped her to hide Tithonus up and advised her to ask Zeus to grant the prince immortality. Then Aurora asked Zeus to grant the prince immortality, but forgot to ask for everlasting youth. As a result, the prince soon became aged, left away from Aurora, came back to the world. However, Aurora gave birth to their child at that time, she intended to leave their child in Olympus, but Zeus disagreed with her. Zeus brought her child to the world when Aurora was out. Aurora was transported with grief, and could do little for that. As a result, the world lost the light as the grief of the goddess. At last, Aurora was persuaded by Zeus, and continued to bring the light to the world.
