A collection of three stories.
Summary of story 1 from Selene Scans:
A light-hearted shoujo that is beautifully presented by a Taiwanese mangaka named Huang Jia Li.
The manga is divided into three episodes: The Myth of the Laurel Tree, The Eden Garden Fantasia, and Midsummer Night's Fantasy.
The Myth of the Laurel Tree:
The story makes references to the story between Apollo and a nymph he met in Greek mythology, although this information is not required to enjoy the it.
Laurel (*hint, hint) and her younger sister are supposed to go to Egypt for another one of her "stone-collecting" vacations.
However, things take an unexpected turn as soon as she meets a young man named Apollo (*hint, hint) who, in many girls eyes, may be too beautiful for words. For example, instead of being on a plane to Egypt, as she originally planned, the plane is hijacked by two odd terrorists to change course to Greece--even though that is already the intended destination!
To makes things even weirder, the two hijackers' names are Cupid and Pan. What's going on?
