She was a huge introspection for me into the worlds of ancient myths and legends, and how distorted they had been told under a overwhelmingly patriarchal society, where a victim of rape had been vilified and turned into a monster, then secluded on an abandoned island and hunted down by Warriors as sport, and then these warriors highly honoured and turned into heroes. While reading about her I came into so many other tales of nymphs, goddesses, women in mythology who had similarly been used and abused, and their aggressors praised and held in the highest esteem throughout history. I wanted to tell their story, her story, a story of a girl, a priestess, a symbol of beauty, strength and wisdom. A symbol in eternity. Artwork cover for Eternus
