One of Arachne's character traits is that she boasts about her skills, this determines how the conflict is resolved. She is a very talented waver and she doesn't recognize that part of her talent comes from Athena. Athena decides to give her the body of a spider after they engage in a contest and Arachne's weaving depicts the god's mean actions. Athena is mad at Arachne because she makes fun of the gods and thinks she is better than Athena herself.
Edgar Allan Poe's "The Cask of Amontillado" presents an excellent example of his stylistic originality through its mood and tone. From the opening sentences, Poe sets an anxious and suspenseful tone by right away pulling the reader into Montresor's vengeful obsession. This creates an air of tension as the story builds toward its climax, which Poe contrasts with satiric humor. He also sustains a mood of eerie foreboding throughout the story by using many overt symbols of death and decay.
