Goddamnit!

The "Silenus = Satyr" thread reminded me of a story from the Iliad (could be wrong) about Achilles (again, could be wrong) or some other Greek hero being nursed back to health on an island by a satyr.

The Google gives me nothing.

That's a centaur, for the love of Dionysius.

For Aries' sake, man.

Oooh. Thank you. Chiron taught Achillies and was famous for his healing.

Wash down three tabs of blotter acid with a bottle of Robotussin DM and it will all make sense.

Confusion?

...which one in the picture is you then? The muscular bearded beast-man or his slender, innocent companion?
