The part about the god is wrong. He had a pair of sandals which were winged, two or four wings already depending on if the sandals had one or two wings each, and he had a winged helmet, another two wings bringing the total to 4 or 6 which is quadruple- or sextuple- winged. He was also able to fly thanks to them.
