Paris was a young and very hansome man when one day he was visited by three goddess. Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite. The goddess wanted Paris to judge who was the most beautiful of them. Each goddess offered a bribe and revealed his royal heritage. Paris chose Aphrodite and she promised to give him Helen,the most beautiful women in the world. However Hera and Athena left the mortal world swearing revenge on both Paris and Troy.
