Throughout the story, he takes beliefs that were significant at the time, and mocks them through the theme of transformation. Ovid was well known to poke and satirize other popular works of his time and he does so throughout this story. At the beginning of the story, Ovid asks the gods, who are the ones causing…

soften up the enemy defenses. The plan was to advance using the Caen and Douvre rivers with paratroopers and then capture the 50 miles of beach in between with the sea invasion.
