I heard an old Greek myth about the god Dionysus.
When his mother (Semele) was sent to the underworld because she saw the face of Zeus because she was a mere mortal. Dionysus decided to try and find the entrance to he underworld in order to rescue his mother, he came upon an elderly gentleman who knew where the entrance was. So Dionysus and the old man struck a deal that if the man showed he entrance Dionysus would agree to have sex with him. So the an showed Dionysus the entrance, Dionysus rescued his mother and went back to the old man to complete his end of the bargain.
When Dionysus arrived at the area where the old man was there was only a grave; The old man had died. As a god Dionysus had to for full his promise to the old man, so he found a branch, carved it into a penis shape, put it on the old mans grave and sat on it.

there accidentally two version of your post..
and i don't really understand why the lady was sent to underworld afterall 😕
When ever Zeus had sex with Semele he wore a mask, because myth has it that if a mortal saw the face of a god, they would be sent to the underworld. Zeus got Semele pregnant and so said he would grant her one wish, Semele's wish was to see the face of the man who got her pregnant.
He showed his face and before he knew it Semele was slap bang in the middle of Hades' lair.
I think somewhere along the line Hera persuaded Semele to grant to see Zeus' face.... not sure though

Hera discovered the affair when Semele was pregnant. Appearing as an old crone, Hera befriended Semele, who confided in her that her husband was actually Zeus. Hera pretended not to believe her, and planted seeds of doubt in Semele' s mind. Curious, Semele asked Zeus to grant an unspecified favor, and got him to swear by the river Styx that he would grant it. Semele demanded of Zeus that he reveal himself in all his glory as proof of his godhood. Though Zeus begged her not to ask this, she persisted and he agreed, unable to break his oath. Mortals, however, cannot look upon a god without dying. Zeus came to her armed in his thunder and lightning, and Semele perished.
