Or more so excited at the prospect of their inevitable demise. Zeus, not being the biggest fan of Prometheus’ creation, was intrigued to see how humankind survive. Prometheus who created man and Epimetheus, who made the animals and gave them all of their positive traits, but Epimetheus had run out of features to provide when it was man’s turn. The story begins with most’s favourite god, Zeus, and the two Titan brothers Prometheus and Epimetheus. Which, in a more modern context, is certainly more alluring than a jar. But over the years, due to the many different versions of the story, somewhere along the line, it got lost in translation and became a box. That’s because it is, and I’d expect nothing else from Greek mythology if I’m being honest.įor those unfamiliar with the story of Pandora’s Box, there’s no need to worry because we will recap it once more before discussing it any further.

So, don’t let me sway your decision, sir.
I’d probably open it, but I am your ordinary, very average nosy delivery man.
I have no idea nor who sent it nor what’s inside, but the message clearly says, ‘DO NOT OPEN’. “Well, do you know who sent it?” said you. “I do not know, sir, I am just your simple, ordinary delivery man, and the instructions that came with the Box said, ‘DO NOT OPEN, EVER'” said the mystery delivery man. “Here is your box whatever you do, the box must never be opened.” Said the Deliveryman I assure you this process will be very speedy.” Said the delivery man. “If you could just confirm your name for me, sir.
“Hello sir, I have a special delivery for you,” said the mystery delivery man.
