Calliope The Muse of epic poetry

Calliope is the Greek Muse of epic poetry, eloquence, and heroic verse, known as the "beautiful-voiced" one, eldest of the Nine Muses, daughters of Zeus and Mnemosyne (Memory). She inspires poets like Homer, symbolized by a lyre, stylus, and tablet, and is associated with great narratives, creativity, and powerful speech. Her children include the legendary musician Orpheus, and she's often depicted with symbols of storytelling and music.
