Orpheus' quest was to retrieve his beloved wife, Eurydice, from the underworld after she died from a snake bite. Armed with his enchanting music, he journeyed to Hades, where he moved both gods and spirits with his melodies, persuading them to allow Eurydice to return with him to the living world. However, he was ultimately doomed to lose her again when he succumbed to the temptation of looking back at her before they reached the surface. His quest symbolizes the power of love and the tragic nature of loss.
