Several suitors have been foolish enough to compete for Atalanta’s hand, and all have lost their races – and their lives. If even princes can’t compete with her, how can a poet somehow find a way to win the race and capture the heart of the princess of Arcadia?
Invited back to meet her human parents, Atalanta must navigate the challenges of royal life and the complicated responsibilities of being a princess.
Meleager and Atalanta flee into the forest. But is there anywhere they can find safety?
When Atalanta and Meleager arrive in Calydon, the heroes feasting at King Oeneus’ table greet them with jeers and rude jokes. But Atalanta astonishes them all as they hunt the enormous wild boar ravaging the kingdom.
Artemis and Athena think Atalanta is ready to meet the Arktoi – the young followers Artemis calls “little bears.” Atalanta teaches the girls to hunt and fish and the ways of the wild, and is surprised by how much she starts to enjoy their company. When the Arktoi return home to their families, Atalanta realizes she needs to learn more about the human world, and strikes out on her own. But danger lurks in the forest.
Young Meleager enjoys the quiet of the forest, until his father, King Oeneus, shouts through the trees to wish him happy birthday. They return to the palace for the festival of the first fruits, and everyone celebrates! But they have made a terrible mistake – which places their kingdom in dire peril.
Atalanta dares her bear cub siblings to leave the shelter of the forest. As they gorge on grapes in a vineyard, they overhear gossipy birds who know much more about Atalanta’s life than she does, until Mama Bear suddenly warns them of danger.
Abandoned with nothing but a scrap of cloth which bears her name, a baby cries on the forest floor. The goddesses Artemis and Athena watch in astonishment as a mother bear, grieving for her own lost cub , nurses the tiny newborn. On the same day, the Fates visit a newborn prince, and predict a terrible end to his life. What will become of these two babes?
