I'm gonna need a source for Kuang's version of Apollo and Coronis (and her father Phlegyas) because every myth I know of about them involves Coronis getting preganant with Asclepius, and then cheating on Apollo with a mortal while pregnant with Apollo's son, which causes Apollo to fly into a jealous rage which (in varied ways depending on the teller) leads to her death. THAT is why Phlegyas torches Apollo's temple.

She believed that when professors snapped at you, when they belittled and misused you, it was because they cared. And she believed, despite mounting evidence to the contrary, that she was all right..." [ah academia...]
