The king, known as Midas, was granted the ability to turn everything he touched into gold by the gods. Initially thrilled by his newfound power, he soon realized the curse it entailed when he accidentally turned his beloved daughter and food into gold. Overwhelmed by the consequences of his greed, Midas sought a way to reverse the gift, ultimately learning the value of love and human connection over material wealth. His tale serves as a timeless reminder of the dangers of avarice.
