Tyson loves to learn about different cultures and time periods, through their legends, ‘old wives tales’, and folk heroes. However, Tyson has a definite bias towards the Greek and Roman tales; their history in general, in truth.
Their tales about the stars and sky are always in the back of his mind when he looks up at the beautiful maps above him.
He finds a lot of comfort in those tales, they’re familiar and always there. Even through dozens of iterations and interpretations of them. Tyson actually enjoys that there are so many different versions, different ways to hear his favourite tales again.
Though Tyson loves all those tales, he does have his biases. He finds Hades to be fascinating and loves any tale with Athena. Neptune and Poseidon never fail to capture Tyson’s imagination. He enjoys the stories of Nike and Mercury. Prometheus is a secret favourite of his.
As has been mentioned many times, Tyson is Icarus and - even knowing its hubris - he embraces the moniker with open arms.
