An ancient Greek myth

Story
In ancient Greece, Dionysus loved to wander among mortals in disguise. When greedy pirates kidnapped him, thinking him a wealthy young man, they got more than they bargained for! Their ropes couldn't bind him, and their ship wouldn't sail. When Dionysus transformed into a lion, the terrified crew jumped overboard and became dolphins.

Why we chose it
A dramatic story that's great to tell - pirates, a shapeshifting god and an origin story all in one!
