Ohoh we're going full blown Lady of the Lake here. Woohoo
Dearest Ninianne / Ninienne / Nimue / Vivianne, make way for Mommicent.
All the tears on you can't make up for your woe's sum.
Wait I thought it was his overly investigative nature. Which Tiresias implicitly warns him against. Like don't be soooo intent on digging out the truth..you might just be digging your own grave all this time, instead.
The term "hubris" is overused, probably because it's a fancy word and sounds super official in a conversation. It comes up every time people discuss fatal flaws--and it IS a frequent fatal flaw in literature, but it shouldn't be the default answer.
When my class studied Oedipus, a lot of people said pride was his fatal flaw, which... no. If you read the play, his most prominent flaw is his short temper. He's so quick to anger and become violent, which is probably what led to him killing his dad in the first place. His fatal flaw isn't hubris, it's poor anger management.

Devi Saraswati, the one who is dressed in a white attire, who is the epitome of knowledge and education, the one who governs learning in the Universe,
You hold the Veena and the book, you remove the darkness by illuminating our lives with the knowledge
You hold a garland of beads that sparkle and you are seated on a lotus that represents blossoming mindfulness.
I worship you, O mother Sharada, the Goddess of wisdom

!!But the Raven, sitting lonely on the placid bust, spoke only
That one word, as if her soul in that one word she did outpour.
Nothing farther then she uttered—not a feather then she fluttered—
Till I scarcely more than muttered “Other friends have flown before—
On the morrow she will leave me, as my Hopes have flown before.”
Then the bird said “Nevermore.”!!
Officially found the most beautiful place on earth.
