Heracles and Athena
Athena, in Greek mythology, appears frequently with Herakles as a helper in his labors.
In many illustrations of his labors, she appears standing behind him, possibly representing her role as an unseen helper for her father’s son.
In some literary accounts, her presence is emphasized, while in vase paintings she seems to be more of a silent presence.
There are no stories about them falling in love.
