If she was a real historical figure, how can she have magic? When she said she was "cursed," it seemed like the metaphor/superstition people make about their luck and not literally cursed by some witch. But the way every man gets attracted to her is ridiculous. Was Helen a real person or some mythological character? She is part of greek myth. Not a real person. However i think on the show, it is some sort of mystical curse that affects only guys. Keep in mind that magic (and possibly the Greek gods) is real within their universe, so the possibility that she's actually cursed is entirely possible.

I wasn't sure what to think about Zari exploiting a loophole by returning Helen to her own time but bringing her to Themyscira instead of Troy. I suppose it works due to the fact that numerous contradictory accounts exist regarding Helen's fate.
