Final Topic - Prometheus Bound
Intro: Prometheus starts talking about how “All human arts come from Prometheus,” (line 506) and those noble deeds were an act of compassion. However, towards the end, Prometheus starts to argue with Hermes about how he is withholding information about Zeus, and he will only tell Zeus who will overthrow him if Zeus would come down himself and free Prometheus from his chains. And he basically doesn't care if Zeus destroys earth and humankind.
