@mythologicalnet event - Chinese mythology

“I was taught that goddesses only exist in the heart and in myths. You think women are weak? Women are forged of iron. My body, it has bled and blazed and broken, and yet it beats on. I am iron. A little rusted, perhaps, but still I endure.”

Favourite Figures from Mythology (15/25)

Nut

Goddess of the sky in Egyptian mythology. She is one of the oldest deities of the Ennead, those ancient Egyptian gods whose story begins with the creation myth at Heliopolis. Some of her titles include Coverer of the Sky, She Who Protects, Mistress of All and as a goddess who is mother to five other gods, she is also worshipped as the protector of children and goddess of childbirth. Nut is represented as a nude woman covered in stars or as her sacred symbol, a cow.

Mythical creatures: Faeries (The Unseelie court)

The Unseelie is the polar opposite of the Seelie. These faeries are ugly, malicious, and downright evil. They are the hideous orcs to the beautiful elves, the dark side of the moon. Where the Seelie saw responsibility in their magical powers, the Unseelie saw their “glamour” as the ends to every means; the Unseelie faeries used their magic for whatever purpose that served their wants. The Unseelie spit at honor. They decide everything by putting their passions first.

Mythical creatures : Faeries (The Seelie Court)

The Seelie faeries are generally honorable and loving. They believe in the idea of love as a transcendent quality, oftentimes matching themselves with humans they deem beautiful. For the Seelie, beauty and youth are the necessary elements that determine their interactions with mortals.

The “Maria” Diwatas

[thewinedarksea]

tezacatlipoca and his smoked mirrors; the curve of his spine: skeletal, each divot the memory of a sacrifice to his name. the chaos; the storm; the promise of tumultuous change. he will reign across this land once more, lopsided obsidian crown upon his brow: heart-eater and trickster king.
