Tantalize ΤΑΝΤΑΛΟΣ\Τάνταλος Holly Boren & Dalton Bradshaw

Tantalize means to torment or tease someone with the sight or promise of something that is unattainable Tantalize was derived from the plight of Tantalus, king of Sipylus, son of Zeus He offered a feast to the gods. Seeing as nothing was fit for them to eat, he killed his most prized possession, his son and made him into a stew. The gods highly disapproved of human sacrifice and condemned him to eternal hunger and thirst. He offended the gods so badly That he was condemned to an eternal hunger and thirst in the after life. He was made to stand in a pool of water up to his chin and fruits hanging above his head, everytime he reached for either they disappeared from his reach
