 | | Thetis, the mother of Achilles, went to Olympus where the gods have their dwellings and to the house of Hephaistos, the smith of the gods. | | | He and Thetis were friends from of old time, for, when his mother would have forsaken him because of his crooked foot, Thetis and her sister reared him within one of the Ocean’s caves and it was while he was with them that he began to work in metals. | | | So the lame god was pleased to see Thetis in his dwelling and he welcomed her and clasped her hand and asked of her what she would have him do for her.’ |

| | 14 - Devil |
| | Indeed, in ancient Greek "Hephaistos" was often used as a synonym for "technical fire," the fire of transformation, as opposed to Hestia, the hearth fire, and to Zeus's celestial fire (Bonnefoy, G&EM 84). | | | It was Hephaistos' fire that Prometheus stole and brought to humanity, and so it was Hephaistos who bound Prometheus to the peak of Mt. Parnassus (see 12.Hanged Man), for Hephaistos is also a god of binding, the god who ensnares. | | | In myth, Hephaistos tried to rape Athena, but she evaded him and his fiery semen fell to Mother Earth, engendering Erikhthonios, a serpent-man, whom Athena nursed and made the first king of Athens; this quasi-offspring of the two craft-gods initiated the Panathenaic festival in her honor. |

| | An earlier generation of scholars sought the origin of Hephaistos among the fire gods of the Near East, but he seems most closely associated with a Pelasgian population on the island of Lemnos that survived into Classical times. | | | A more likely explanation is that congenitally deformed males who could not fight often became craftsmen and smiths. |
