Conflict

The source of conflict in the myth all started when Apollo saw his sister and Orion laying next to one another. He, like most others would have, assumed that Orion had caused Artemis to give up her pledge to chastity. A second source of conflict is Apollo's pride. He was too egotistical to admit that he had been wrong by assuming the two were more than friends. Last but not least is the fact that Apollo tormented and indirectly caused Orion's death at the end of the story.
