Once upon a time, there was a woman named Phyllis and a man named Aristotle. Aristotle angered Phyllis, but she found an unusual way to turn the power dynamics in her favor. When her gaze fell upon a saddle hanging on the wall, she seized the opportunity and convinced the great philosopher to let her put the saddle on him and take the bit into his mouth. Thus, she rode him through the orchard, observed by many onlookers. The story of the mighty horsegirl and the tamed philosopher quickly spread, eventually forcing Aristotle to leave the city.
