I think it might have been Apollo himself ........... I was perhaps thinking of the Muses before .............

As for your aunt, CM - is it Auntie Delphine?

No - all wrong. Much more 'well known'
but FYI
Terpsichore is the Muse of dancing and the dramatic chorus, and later of lyric poetry.

Dionysus or Dionysos is the god of wine, the inspirer of ritual madness and ecstasy.

Phoebe, was one of the original Titans, who were one set of sons and daughters of Uranus and Gaia. She was traditionally associated with the moon.

Would you like to guess again?
