Zeus has once fallen in love with thstis but she refused to be wife of Zeus because he had a big beard and he was also fat and so thetis was punished by never being able to marry an immortal ever again.

No more can they run and fight" complained the goddess thetis but peleus king of the myrmondions has heard of it and now he had the chance of marrying thetis. Because thetis was outraged of Zeus punishing her she rode across the ocean on dolphins naked until she saw peleus waiting for her and he hugged her when she came close. She turned into water but peleus somehow held her to him she turned to fire a lion a snake but he still held on until thetis gave up and decided to marry peleus. Peleus and thetis invited all gods and goddesses except eris goddesses of discord and because of that she got a golden apple gave it to peleus to carry and said "only the fairest goddess can weild the golden apple" with that eris left and the goddesses argued in who disserved the apple until Zeus said that Paris must choose who is the fairest goddess.
