Tried to whip together a less sketchy reference for my centaur dream-domain cleric, Melete!

[theogonyofbeauty]

According to Pausanias, there were originally three Muses, worshipped on Mount Helicon in Boeotia: Aoide ('song' or 'tune'), Melete ('practice' or 'occasion'), and Mneme ('memory').

INFODUMP: Chione is one of the cases of a human being born to a god; in Greek myth, she was a mortal woman. For her lore, I decided that she would be the Queen of Thrace (Thrace is canon to Chione's lore). Chione would defy her father one day by running off with a man (not the king of Thrace), a man she actually loved. Boreas, being the dick that he is, would release a relentless winter onto her kingdom. This storm would slowly kill everything and everyone, eventually killing his daughter and her lover (he died in her arms on a hill). Hestia took pity on the young woman and the young man. She proceeded to apotheosize Chione, and turned her lover into the warmth that comes from hypothermia before a person dies of it.

When it came time to fight, Alala pushed her mentee far too hard. He died on the battlefield, in the goddess's arms. Alala took what was left of his cloak and killed everyone on the battlefield that day.
