Athena and Arachne's Story
One time, though, the god Athena did hear her. At once she came down in disguise as an old hag. Once she found Arachne, she got out of her disguise.
"If you think you are a better weaver than me, then lets have a challenge!"
Arachne agreed, and they started at once.
In the end the competitors looked at each others art. Athena got s omad that she ripped the picture in two. She was so mad she turned Arachne into a spider so she could weave for etearnity.
