Leda was the daughter of King Thestius, and the wife of King Tyndareus. The god Zeus (Jupiter in Roman mythology) appeared to her as a swan, and seduced her. Since she also slept with her husband, two of her children were mortal, and two were immortal. They were also hatched from eggs. Her children were Helen (better known as the beautiful Helen of Troy), Clytemnestra, Castor and Pollux (also known as Polydeuces). Between Castor and Pollux, Pollux was usually the immortal one.
Zeus made himself into a swan and then made love to her. He was in the guise of a swan, because he didn't want his wife and the goddess of marriage, Hera to catch him. As to children, one myth and the one most often told is that she had twins, Apollo and Artemis. Another version says that Leda had two children with Zeus and two children with her husband Tyndarus, or that Castor was mortal and his twin Polydeuces was immortal. Her daughters Clytemnestra and Helen (yes Helen of Troy) were mortal

The Greeks saw Gemini as two twins, Castor and Pollux, who were both mothered by Leda, but had different fathers, as Leda was made pregnant in the same night by Zeus and her husband. So, Pollux was immortal, whereas Castor was mortal. They both had their talents; Pollux was strong, and Castor was good with horses. They both voyaged in search of the Golden Fleece (which is kind of similar to the Holy Grail). Afterwards, they both fought in the Trojan War to bring their sister, Helen, back to her husband. Pollux was devastated when Castor died, and asked Zeus to let Castor share his immortality. Zeus agreed, and they were reunited in the night sky, forever together.
