EXTRA NOTES... ☄
asteria was a hard goddess/titaness to work on, as there aren't a lot of sources out there about her-- mainly used the Wikipedia page, some gemstones associated with sleep, and my mind (as well as a little help from my knowledge on space, stars, and the night- also animals. I love animals.) 𖥔
It just hit me how op Mnemosyne is. Like imagine a Titaness who remembers absolutely every little detail about everything. Someone who can look through any other immortals memories, find their weaknesses, their strengths, all their plans. She could have the ability to make someone relieve their worse memories, remove someone's memories and replace them with entirely new ones. Like, is that not crazy?
Apollonius Rhodius, Argonautica 1. 498 ff (trans. Rieu) (Greek epic C3rd B.C.) :"He [Orpheus] sang of . . . How, in the beginning, Ophion and Eurynome, daughter of Okeanos (Oceanus), governed the world from snow-clad Olympos (Olympus); how they were forcibly supplanted, Ophion by Kronos (Cronus), Eurynome by Rhea; of their fall into the waters of Okeanos; and how their successors ruled the happy Titan gods when Zeus in his Diktaian cave was still a child, with childish thoughts." [N.B. Ophion and Eurynome might be Ouranos and Gaia or Okeanos and Tethys.]Lycophron, Alexandra 1191 ff (trans. Mair) (Greek poet C3rd B.C.) :"[Zeus] who is lord of Ophion's [an early king of heaven deposed by Kronos (Cronus)] throne. But he [Zeus] shall bring thee to the plain of his nativity [Arkadia (Arcadia) and Elis], that land celebrated above others by the Greeks, where his mother [Rhea], skilled in wrestling, having cast into Tartaros the former queen [Eurynome wife of Ophion]."
I feel like not enough people talk or know about this
It’s interesting how this implies that Rhea and Tethys had beef yet Rhea trusted Tethys to raise and protect Hera. What would motivate Rhea to hide her youngest daughter with the sister she beat up? Why would Tethys accept the child of the sister who beat her up and banished her?
Could it be that they reconciled? Or did Tethys pity baby Hera and any resentment she might have for Rhea when she saw her baby?
