To those who think this is out of character for Artemis, you are correct! This is an exclusively Roman telling of Orion’s story, and Pseudo-Hyginus is the only one to write it this way. In the actual Greek myths, there are many versions and they all say either Gaia or Artemis killed him (either because he boasted about being able to slay all creatures on Earth, or because he tried to assault one of Artemis’ maidens), but none of them mention any kind of romance between them.

[@truthspreader1996]

So Orion is the bad guy!?

[@kevinkeenan-2.1]

In another story Apollo wasn’t liking his sisters lover, whether she loves him or that she calls him heroic Apollo wants him dead. So as Orion was swimming Apollo sees his head sticking out of the water and cooks up a plan to end him. He ask his sister to test her skills by shooting at that mark (little did she know that mark out of the water was Orion’s head), she did and accidentally kills Orion. She was grief mourning the death of Orion, and was angry at her brother Apollo but she got her revenge. By shooting an arrow at his girlfriend Chione.

[@russergee49]

@@kevinkeenan-2.1 That’s the Roman story I’m talking about. Also, it was Koronis, not Chione. Although most myths say say Koronis was killed by Apollo (or Artemis) because she disrespected Apollo by having another lover, nothing to do with Orion.

You are definitely correct though I think people like the idea of Artemis and Orion as a Doomed love

[@superiorrule34]

Apollo out loud: I have to protect my sisters Virtue. Apollo in his mind: if I’m not getting laid either are you sis.

[@A1exS8]

I think Apollo had a thing with Admetos husband of Alkestis

[@TheDragonologist9]

Apollo getting laid happened a lot often end in the other party turning into a flower

Her one true love

[@wulaeofthetengu8336]

No. The love bs is Roman. The Older, Greek, Real story Orion is just a hunting friend of Leto and Artemis.

[@mariusconstantin6057]

The only man that ciuld have made Artemis start a family

[@kevinkeenan-2.1]

If only she would give up her chastity so she and Orion would love happily ever after. That and her brother Apollo wouldn’t be in the way. 😠

[@rohanrodrigues7115]

Oh please no, Artemis never loved Orion 😑

[@uria3679]

After seeing OSP’s video on this myth, I think I prefer the version that maintains Artemis’s character

[@boardcertifiable]

Artemis: I will hang my friends image in the sky to commemorate our friendship. Apollo: and I will hang the image of the scorpion that did me a solid in killing your friend. Artemis. :/

[@dashaadashaa9386]

After watching this: Apollo: i can explain Artemis: no you can't

[@nal004]

Artemis watching apollo make a constellation of the monster that killed her love: 😐

[@kevinkeenan-2.1]

Artemis: Apollo what is that giant scorpion doing right next to Orion in the constellation.

[@bentowers7743]

I bet losing Orion only strengthened Artemis conviction to keep her chastity 'cause if Orion couldn't have it, no man could.

[@wulaeofthetengu8336]

They didn't love each other. The maker of this video doesn't know how to differentiate Greek and Roman made stories. The love bs was made to taint Artemis's name.

[@kevinkeenan-2.1]

I like this artwork you made for this story and how you made the Artemis and Orion story.

Artemis: Apollo what is that right next to Orion!? Apollo: Huh, what do you meant dear sister 😅

[@blast3608]

Even gods can be envy. Apollo been through many bad relationships. And now, with artemis in a relationship with a giant... Apollo takes action.

[@phantomeye5199]

0:00 Wow. I can see Artemis on Orion's shoulder are hunting was a close friends. 0:12 Orion was kind and give her flower. 0:25 Apollo was behind a tree to see his sister. 0:36 What the!? Apollo sent a huge scorpion and Orion are fighting. 0:41 Scorpion and Orion ended up dead. 0:49 😢 When Artemis arrive and see where Orion was dead. 1:00 😃 Hey! You can see where Scorpion and Orion are stars at night. They will be remember that time. 👏👏 Now that was totally awesome story of The Romance Between Artemis and Orion Greek Mythology in history. I hope they had a good time in the afterlife.

[@wulaeofthetengu8336]

Roman Mythology. They weren't in love in Greek Mythology. Orion was just a hunting friend to Leto and Artemis.The Romans did this to taint Artemis's name.

Apollo was jealous of his sister's happiness in Orion; then tricked her into killing her friend Orion.

[@deathgod4872]

This is a story written by the Romans, and the death of Orian in Greece has nothing to do with Apollo.

[@antonioiadevaia6808]

Per me Apollo era solo geloso di Orione.

[@2prider451]

Ok no the true myth goes like this: Orion, after the first meeting with Artemis, boasted about being the best Hunter ever so Apollo became jealous and overprotective over Artemis and he sent the scorpion to hunt down Orion. Of course, Orion got scared and he ran straight to the sea and then Apollo tricked Artemis into a wager: she must hit a small dot in the sea in order to prove that she was the best Hunter ever. And she did although she didn't know that the dot was actually Orion her friend. And she put his soul on the stars in order to remember him. Apollo put the scorpion right next to Orion as the constellation of the Scorpio. And that's how the myth is known. Learn it better please and don't use inaccurate information

Even if Artemis wasn't pure how would she even be able to get it on with a Giant? Like come lets be honest here, he just too big. Apollo literally had nothing to worry about. Banging him would be like getting rammed by a bus, it's just not possible.

The Deities in Greek Mythology have been constantly show as being able to shapeshifter and alter others. So if they did want to get it on, she could make herself as big as he is or alter his form to be her size.
