Hermes finding a lost soul 🦋

I wanted to draw Hermes in his role as psychopompos and I remember reading somewhere that butterflies represented souls in greek mythology. I'm not really sure on that but I liked the idea :)

The fact that most translations and commentaries I’ve read says that

alius Latio iam partus Achilles, natus et ipse dea

Now/already another Achilles has been born [Latio], and he too is the son of a godess

refers only to Turnus really downgrades the ambiguity in this statement. Because Latio could mean in Latium, in which case it’s Turnus. But it could also mean for/on behalf of Latium. And it’s Aeneas who’s been consistently called the son of a goddess and who will take Achilles’ place at the end when he essentially recreates the Trojan War in Italy. 

This is the ambiguity of prophecy where it refers to two people at once. It’s not just Turnus because, in the end, Turnus isn’t the inheritor of Achilles. Aeneas is.

Phobos : I told Deimos his ears flush when he lie.
Eros: Why?
Phobos : Look.
Phobos : Hey Deimos ! Do you love us?
Deimos , covering his ears: No.
Eros:
