    Other myths tell of Echo's falling in love with Narcissus, the handsome son of a river god. However, Narcissus rejected Echo because she could only repeat his words. She was so upset that she faded away until only her voice was heard as an echo. Another myths states that Pan, god of the woods, pursued Echo but that she escaped..

    In Greek mythology Echo was a mountain nymphminor goddess of nature, usually represented as young and beautiful who annoyed Hera, queen of the gods, by talking to her constantly. Echo's chatter distracted Hera and prevented her from discovering the love affairs of her husband, Zeusin Greek mythology, king of the gods and husband of Hera (Roman god Jupiter). As punishment, Hera took away Echo's power of speech so that she could say nothing except the last words spoken by someone else.
