Once upon a time, according to ancient Greek mythology, the goddess of Dawn fell in love with a Trojan prince called Tithonus. She was so besotted with him that she went to Zeus, the king of the gods, to ask that Tithonus be made immortal. Zeus agreed, but Dawn had been foolish, she'd asked for and received eternal life for her lover, she'd forgotten to ask for  eternal youth. The result was that Tithonus just got older and older and older, though he never died.
