Scylla and Charybdis lived on opposite sides of the narrow Strait of Messina, making it impossible for ships to pass between them without encountering one monster or the other. The dangers they posed gave rise to the saying "between Scylla and Charybdis," meaning facing two equally dangerous options.
The document summarizes the Greek myth of Arethusa and Alpheus. Arethusa was a nymph beloved of the goddess Artemis. Alpheus, the son of the sea god, fell in love with Arethusa.

Artemis turned Arethusa into a spring, transporting her to the island of Ortygia in Sicily. Alpheus turned himself into a river to follow her, digging an underground channel from Greece to Sicily so that his waters could mix with those of the Arethusa spring, reuniting him with his lover.
