=== Beautiful daughter === Daedalion's daughter Chione was said to be so beautiful that she was the object of a thousand men's desire the moment she turned fourteen. As it transpired, Chione's admirers were not limited to mortal men. Whilst returning from visits to earth, both Apollo and [[Hermes]] caught sight of Chione and were filled with a burning lust. Apollo decided to wait until night fell; however, Hermes was not so patient. Through the use of magic, he caused Chione to fall into a deep sleep and proceeded to rape her. Later that evening, Apollo also visited her in the guise of an old woman.<ref name="Ovid 301">Ovid, ''Metamorphoses'' 11.301</ref> As a result of these two divine visitations Chione gave birth to twins. By Hermes she gave birth to [[Autolycus]] who grew into a notorious thief and charlatan.<ref name="Ovid 301" /><ref>Hyginus, ''Fabulae'' [https://topostext.org/work/206#201 201]</ref> By Apollo she bore [[Philammon]], a man famed both for his voice and skill with a lyre.<ref name="Ovid 301" />
