What was the name of a voiceless nymph who began to waste away because of unreturned love?
Correct answer: Echo
Ripley
What a beautiful and haunting story. Thanks for sharing.

Echo was perhaps the most gentle, the most kind, and possessed a good and loving heart. Always nice Greek mythology.

Mythology (all varieties) is so interesting...very enjoyable reading.

Its quite funny that the goddess never tried to teach a lesson to their husbands.
They always cursed the weak one.
And it is always same in almost every mythology.

It's really interesting to find out how some of our everyday words came into common usage. Somehow I don't think the reasons for words like methadone will have quite the same magic.
Chasman
Greek mythology is way more interesting than Christian mythology.

Unlike Echo, I'm not wasting away, I'm getting bigger in the waist from lack of love. We all cope differently, even in Greek mythology.

that's amazing, I am Greek and never heard of this one!

Heard of 'echolalia'?
It's a disorder were a person is compelled to repeat the last bit of what someone else says..
Mostly, in adults, it's kinda like a OCD thing. But as children, it's how we learn to speak

why curse her when it should be her husband that endured her wrath

look what happened at the beginning of the 2024 Paris Olympics.Raising up Greek gods instead of the Real Almighty God can get you smacked.

Growing up I loved reading Greek mythology but this was also satisfying to answer as I’ve recently finished reading the Mythos by Stephen Fry.
Solomon
Blacktulip23, You Are Very Correct...

I don't know of the makers of this game will read this, but Echo was not voiceless, she could talk but only repeat what others said.
