希腊神话中，艾蔻（Echo）是个美丽的林间仙子。她天真，活泼，喜欢用她快乐的声音诉说着生活的点点滴滴。宙斯（Zues）觊觎艾蔻的美丽，没想到这却招来了赫拉（Hera）的嫉妒。她恨恨地念下咒语：艾蔻，让她只能支离破碎地重复别人的话吧！永远永远！

从此，快乐的仙女黯然地游离于森林之间。

森林的另一角，一个翩翩少年正悄悄长成。他，纳西索斯（Narcissus）有着最俊美的面孔，还有最冷傲的心灵。

无数的巧合，终于让小艾蔻遇上了心仪的王子。她看着纳西索斯，灼红了双脸。她偷偷地跟着，冀望着能够跟他说上一句话。可是，她是被诅咒的！她使劲地撕扯自己的咽喉，却始终说不出一个字。心在煎熬。

林中的脚步声惊动了纳西索斯，他转身喊出一句：Who is here?艾蔻欣喜万分，她多想告知Narcissus她的心意，但是她没有正常的说话能力，只能重复念叨着别人的话“here..here..”。对美丽女子的倾慕，Narcissus早已见惯不怪了。对她们，他总是高傲地一笑，无情地拒绝。这次也不例外：I don't love you.艾蔻含着泪，口中却只能重复着：“love you..love you..”。她渴望说出的句子啊，此时却变成了伤口上的一把盐。

她伤心地在森林徘徊，终日以泪洗脸，身体日渐消瘦。终于有一天，她的身子完全消失了，只剩下忧郁而轻柔的声音在山谷中回荡。无论是何人对她呼喊，她都只重复对方的话语，从不作自己的回答。而那个无情的拒绝者爱上了自己的倒影，郁郁而终，化作了一株自恋的水仙花。

幽幽的山谷中，你听到Echo的声音了吗？

Orpheus and Eurdice

I tell you now a story of beauty and tragedy. It begins with Orpheus, the best musician that ever lived. One strum of his lyre, one note sung, and beasts would crawl to him, rocks would move to be closer, trees would leave their places to be near to him. They called him a sorcerer for his power, and perhaps he was, for he was the son of the Muse Calliope.

He lived his life simply and carelessly until the day he met Eurydice. She was a Dryad, and their love was perfect and unbreakable. Aristaeus, who saw Eurydice's beauty and desired it, tried to take her unwillingly. She ran from him. Ran in terror, without thought to her step, and so it was she stepped on a viper in her flight. The venom of its bite killed her at once, and Orpheus was inconsolable. His grief was bitter, but he did not let it lull him into a stupor. He decided to take action.

With his lyre, Orpheus descended into the Underworld. A normal mortal would have perished any number of times, but Orpheus had his lyre and his voice and he charmed Cerberus - the three-headed monster dog of Hades who guarded the Underworld - into letting him pass. Facing Hades and his cold Queen Persephone he played for them his sorrow at the loss of his love. The heart that was frozen by Hades' abduction melted in Persphone's breast
