TithonosTithonus

The son of Laomedon and the brother of Priam and Hesione; the half-brother of Boukolion.

Tithonos fell in love with Eos (Dawn) and when she asked Zeus if Tithonos could be made immortal she forgot to ask for his eternal youth; when he became old and feeble, Eos locked him in a private room and closed the shining doors forever.
