In history we have to do a project on a Greek hero, monster, god, or goddess and I chose Hecate.
I'm regretting my decision now because my browser history contain

Is Hecate really the goddess of the mist
(Apparently not)
I think my parents are worried now half the websites I've visited are satanic
Yeah go magic
But this project was so hard to sort through what was real historical evidence, modern day wiccan and satanist worshipping, and Percy Jackson.
Percy Jackson was the majority of the websites.
Go demigods!
*************
I got to go first in presenting my project, I volunteered (as tribute), and spent the whole class muttering under my breath corrects, I knew that, or Percy Jackson references, proving that I am a very big mythology nerd.
*sigh*
But really did people do no research?
Cerberus, contrary to popular belief, is actually pronounced Ker-ber-us, but that's not a really big deal. And it may have just been the Latin pronunciation...
But it is defiantly not pronounced
Sir-bees
Where did they even get that
Can you not read
Cupid is actually Roman.
Again, not many people know that, but it would be nice i you were mythologically correct.
I'm not even going to start on their pronunciation of Hephaestus because I'm almost positive no one can pronounce it without looking it up
Expect Demigods.
Curse you demigods and your perfect ability to speak the names of ancient Greece.
Per-son-ee doesn't exist. Per-sef-own-ee. Persephone. I guess per-son-ee is better than the way my sister pronounced it, purse-fer-own-y
These names were so freaking hard to pronounce
I made the mistake of bringing Hecate's monsters into my presentation
And butchered
Mormolykieai
Pretty bad.
