Literature. Part hundred twenty nine.

                                      "One-Eye, Two-Eyes, and Three-Eyes" by the Brothers Grimm.

Once upon a time there was a woman. She had three daughters: the eldest had the only eye, the middle had two eyes like normal people, and the youngest had three eyes.

The mother and sisters couldn't accept Two-Eyes because she was very simple. Then, with the help of magic, she was able to take care of herself.

Having suffered betrayal by her family, the character met a young knight and married him. At the end of the tale, Two-Eyes forgave One-Eye, and Three-Eyes.

Danaïdes.

Danaïdes (Δᾰνᾰΐδες), or Danaides and Danaids were daughters of Danaus (Δαναός) (Danaós), king of Argos (Άργος). They had different mothers.

Danaïdes killed their husbands. Only one of them didn't kill her husband.

In Tartarus killers carry a jug to fill a pithos without bottom.

There are arts about these characters.
