“Hail Bellerophon, cunning slayer of Chimera,” the goat whispers.I awaken and snarl.“Stricken for his hubris, fallen from Pegasus,” the snake hisses.Mane bristling, I hold back a roar.“Not dead,” they choir, “but cursed. Hero we were, monster we are.”#AmWriting #SFF #Microfiction

@Jason_H_Abbott An ancient hemidrachm from Sikyon on the Peloponnesos, to match your beautiful piece.. 😊Struck between 330 and 280 BCEOn the obverse, the Chimera slain by Bellerophon, described in Hesiod's Theogony as 'A creature fearful, great, swift-footed and strong, with three parts, one of a grim-eyed lion, in her hinder part a dragon and in her middle, a goat, breathing forth a fearful blast of blazing fire. Her did Pegasos and noble Bellerophon slay' #numismatics #AncientHistory
