Oh hi hello there, welcome, this is let's talk about mitz baby, and I am that host of yours, the one who most people don't think is annoying, live.

and today I'm here with a particular, I don't know when I wrote that, and today I'm here with a particularly interesting and particularly mysterious, myth, I also wrote that earlier,

before I got to sources, we're gonna go with it, it's December, I am tired.

Not to mention, it's a myth that requires me to say a deeply odd Greek name many, many times, but we will get there.

I want to remind you all that I will be doing another new year Q&A episode, so make sure you get questions in before the end of the year.

You can submit your questions via a form on my website, mythsbaby.com slash questions, it's also in the episode description.

This is the perfect opportunity for you to ask all the questions that you might have asked via email or DM that I haven't had a chance to reply to because I'm an introvert with ADHD who fears replying to people.

And it's my chance to feel better about that exact thing and to give you some answers. Last year we had some great questions about the ancient world and sourcing and even studying the ancient world and sourcing and so much more.

So I'm excited to see what you all come up with. And just a reminder to you, I'm working on a very special series of episodes that will be coming out in January.

I'm going to be diving into the history and mythology and like so much more behind that very, very famous ancient Greek city state where Cassandra's from an assassin's creed Odyssey, that's right, it's sparta.

It's absolutely fascinating and I've already recorded some amazing conversations that are going to go along with these episodes.

We are all going to learn so fucking much. It's also coming to the time of year when I give myself a little break from researching and writing and recording new episodes. Can you tell I need it?

Over the last two weeks of December, I will be re-aaring some favorite episodes that you all have something to listen to and I in theory have time to relax when in truth I will almost certainly just be working on this part in series.

But what can you do? ADHD is a hell of a bitch.

But that is future lives problem. Today we're here with a very interesting and often forgotten mythological character.

Why is it so unique and interesting and often forgotten you ask?

Well, it's one of those details from the Trojan War that probably existed in ancient Greek stories, Homeric or otherwise, but basically only survived to us today in late or even Roman sources, particularly offense heroities.

I certainly first heard about this woman story from the Herodys and nowhere else.

But hers is a story that exists in other Roman sources and that we know existed beyond those little letters of avid written between women and the men who wronged them.

This wronged woman is a nymph named Inoni and boy, was she right to call out Paris.

This is episode 192.
