women of greek mythology - medea (Μήδεια)

In Greek mythology, Medea was the daughter of King Aeëtes of Colchis, niece of Circe, granddaughter of the sun god Helios, and later wife to the hero Jason, with whom she had two children, Mermeros and Pheres. In Euripides’s play Medea, Jason leaves Medea when Creon, king of Corinth, offers him his daughter, Glauce. The play tells about how Medea avenges her husband’s betrayal. (+ more)

Norse Mythology: Hel 

Hel is the ruler of Helheim, the realm of the dead. She is the youngest child of the god Loki and the giantess Angrboda. Her face and body are that of a living woman, but her legs are those of a corpse, mottled and moldering. 

The gods had abducted Hel and her brothers from her mother’s hall. She was cast to the underworld, into which she distributes those who are sent to her; the wicked from the innocent. 

She has a knife called “Famine”, a plate called “Hunger”, a bed called “Disease”, and bed curtains called “Misfortune”.

mythology meme: [1/9] Greek Gods/Goddesses → Eris

Strife whose wrath is relentless, she is the sister and companion of murderous Ares, she who is only a little thing at the first, but thereafter grows until she strides on the earth with her head striking heaven. She then hurled down bitterness equally between both sides as she walked through the onslaught making men’s pain heavier.

No but the dynamic between Edmund and Susan Pevensie is so important.

The traitor that was and the traitor that would be; the dark to the light of the Valiant and the Magnificent. Lucy and Peter are all overt and loud and brash and you see the work of their hands. They are not known for their subtlety.

But Edmund. Susan. You do not get called the Just without getting blood on your hands that no one but you will ever see. People headcanon Edmund as the spymaster of the Pevensies and I can completely understand why.

(He learned viciousness in school hallways and a wintry land. No matter how much you may mend, no matter how just you become, no matter how good– and he did all of these things– you never outrun the knowledge of the shadows, and he uses this to advantage.

Besides, what better way to use the abilities that the wolves and dark dwarves who came to him for clemency know best?)

You can always know what Peter is thinking; know that if ever comes a time the High King wants you dead, you will see it coming and die looking into those bright eyes as he runs his sword through you. The Just King learned to hide hurt under a veneer of belligerence and learned how to use that to create an impassive mask. If Edmund Pevensie wants you gone, nobody knows what happens to you until it’s far too late to do anything about it.

And Susan. Susan, the Gentle one, courted by kings. Among all those kings, surely there must have been at least one she didn’t favor. Surely one she didn’t care for, whose presence made her uncomfortable or who she simply didn’t find entertaining. You are not called the Gentle if you snub people, if you insult a man by turning him away with honesty– you are called much worse things.

(Susan, Gentle Susan, how many believed that beautiful mask you wore that told them there was still a chance even as you were waving them out the door? The princes that came for Lucy knew when they was out of favour– the Valiant one is a lioness. Lionesses do not know how to let someone down gently. You do not have that luxury when you are being wooed by kings. Men have done terrible things when a woman has told them ‘no’ outright.)

Both Edmund and Susan have learned to wear masks; to hide in shadows when it suits them. That creates an understanding between the two of them that’s hard to break.

So I like to think that Edmund understood when they were banished from Narnia and found this world lacking– Susan more than any of them. I like to think that when he saw her going out with lipstick red as blood (never as red as the Narnian standard; only Lucy is able to wear that red without it hurting,) he knew that it was just her putting on armor to try to fight for her own power (in the way the Gentle Queen has always known how to fight– Gentle does not mean safe, has never meant safe. Narnians know that better than anyone.)

I hope that in the New Narnia, he took Jill and Polly and Eustace aside and reminded them that all apparent traitors have their motivations; that every traitor can mend, even and especially those who were never so off-track at the heart of things. I hope he never lost faith in his sister because goodness knows that she and the others never really lost faith in him.

The goddesses of FATE who personified the inescapable destiny of man

[paiqeturco-deactivated20160715]

MYTHOLOGY MEME :  ten goddesses → sedna

       Sedna was the Inuit goddess of the sea, the creatures that inhabit it, and the underworld. She was once a beautiful maiden, but was sacrificed to the sea. Though greatly feared, she was sought by Shamans so she would release seals for hunting. She rules over all sea life, and decides the fate of, not only the creatures, but the people who hunt them. If one does not make a prayer to Sedna before heading out to hunt, they are destined to fall by her hand. According to one myth, she resides in Adlivun in an impenetrable ice castle where she spends her days amongst the whales and other sea creatures.
