Thank you in advance!

Golden Winged Astrape

[templeof-thetheoi]

I’m suffering with a migraine right now so I don’t know if any of this is going to be coherent at all…

I feel like Uhm, Astrape and Bronte get overlooked majorly. People see lightning and hear thunder and immediately think about Zeus, but my thoughts go to the sisters.

They’re goddesses of lightning and thunder respectively, and are handmaidens of Zeus and i adore them so so much, there is so little information on them it makes me sad ..

Also with Uhm, goddesses such as Pandeia, Ersa (had to sneak her in here sorry chat it’s in my nature), Peitho, Epione, Eirene, Aergia and so many others, they’re so unknown and I adore them all 💔

I might make a long post on all of the under appreciated or unknown deities and post it here because I love them so much let me know in the poll if you’d wanna see that

But ya, love your underappreciated deities

Should I make a big post about under-appreciated deities

Yes I love your autism

No stinky

Eh I don’t really care
