What does a chimerical scheme mean?
Chimerical Scheme The term "A Chimerical Scheme" is derived from the Greek Story of Pegasus and Bellerophon. At one point in the story, The King of Lycia was asked to kill Bellerophon but instead of killing him himself, he told Bellerophon to kill the Chimaer, assuring that Bellerophon would die in the attempt. That is the origin of a chimerical scheme, and from this I would guess that the present-day meaning would be to ask somebody to do something that would bode harm to them without their knowing. A chimerical Scheme is a scheme that is so wildly fanciful and delusionary that it could never become a reality, having no existence except in thought.
