Telamon has just accused Jason and his "allies" of deliberately abandoning Heracles

He [Telamon] spake, and rushed upon Tiphys son of Hagnias; and his eyes sparkled like flashes of ravening flame. And they would quickly have turned back to the land of the Mysians, forcing their way through the deep sea and the unceasing blasts of the wind, had not the two sons of Thracian Boreas held back the son of Aeacus with harsh words. Hapless ones, assuredly a bitter vengeance came upon them thereafter at the hands of Heracles, because they stayed the search for him. For when they were returning from the games over Pelias dead he slew them in sea-girt Tenos and heaped the earth round them, and placed two columns above, one of which, a great marvel for men to see, moves at the breath of the blustering north wind. These things were thus to be accomplished in after times.

Calais and Zetes are the two "wind brothers".

THE BOREADS

1st: Attic red figure pelike, attributed to Nausicaa Painter, ca. 450 BC. Museum of Fine Arts of Boston, USA. The soothsayer Phineus and the Boreads

2n: Attic red figure krater, ca. 475-425 BC. Museo Nazionale di Spina, Ferrara, Italy. Phineus, the harpies and a ¿Boread?/Thracian

For me, that's what Zetes and Calais are like and imo they always should be depicted as Thracian (at the corresponding period).

I am confused by the timeline of the Boreads. In theory, they are the result of Boreas' rape of Orithyia, but that would be when Orithyia was still very young, and unless they were more long-lived than most or were immortal, it would not make any sense, and they would be too old to be in the Argonautica. I know I'm wrong to base my argument on the line of succession of Athens because Mr Theseus IS A FUCKING TIME BREAKER EVERYWHERE. But if we erase Theseus of he argonautica they fit as young uncles of Aegeus, but I don't know if they fit with the rest of the heroes' genealogy.

Boreads [(Ancient Greek: Βορεάδαι) were the "wind brothers" in Greek mythology] is a pseudonym I created in 2016 to make hip hop instrumentals and beats. At its core Boreads samples from all over the world that have that 60s - 70s groove. The sound Boreads is going for has to be raw. There is magic - even meditation -  in cutting a sample and filling it with your drums, bass and layers. Something that I will probably never stop. The priority is to make music for your soul and your groove. If people feel connected with that, there is even more magic. All artworks and music videos for Boreads are made by me. Another released project that I’m part of is playing drums on the “Magnesium sessions” which are the pursuit of global ascension practiced by a collective of mountaineers syncing from deep inside the virtual psychotopia.
