Strengths Cont.
Her independence and free spirit is not appreciated by any and all of the goddesses. Aphrodite has no control over her, as she is not interested in love at all. Hera also is forced to confront her when she sides with the Trojans during the Trojan war.

FACTS
- Niobe boasted that she was better then Leto because of how many children she had. Apollo and Artemis avenged the insult against their mother by killing most if not all of Noibe's children with their arrows
- The best way to honor Artemis is by taking care of the natural world
