He was so vain as he kept looking at himself in ponds and lakes that he was turned into a Narcissus flower which looks a bit like a daffodil except it grows near fresh water please leave feedback for my answers
Echo fades, Narcissus dies and becomes the flower we know today.
both echoes and the narcissus flower
Narcissus was cursed to fall in love with his reflection after making fun of creatures who's name I forget. He either drowned himself in the pond he used to look at his reflection, or he stared at himself so long he turned into a flower, but no one knows which one exactly.
echo loves narcissus but he rejects her and she dies so narcissus got a curse put on him where he could only love himself so he had pity on himself and was turned in a flower on the riverbank..!!
