Young Eris (ft Nyx and Echo)
I let go of her sleeve, teeth flashing in what might’ve been a smile.  Us goddesses of the dark were not skilled in such arts, the ones of Aphrodite and the nymphs above.  I was not born to lure gods to my bed.  I was not born to fall in love.
My fingers twitched.  The nymph I saw on the mountain flashed before me, her gaze sparking like flint against stone.  I knew not why I felt so drawn, why my heart beat as it never had before.  Perhaps she knew something.  Perhaps she had the keys to my fate, and was only waiting for me to grasp them.
Morpheus can wait.  I brushed past Mother with a softer, less toothy smirk.  I need to . . . I trailed off.  Wander.
Why I was keeping this secret, I didn’t know.  If it was important to me, surely it would be important to her.  But Mother only waved a hand, pointing to the mountain in the distance.  Hurry.  Gone was her warmth, and even amusement.  Eos is beginning to rouse from her rest.
I hiked up my chiton and made for the rocks, stumbling over them as my eyes scanned for my nymph.  There she was, clustered with her kin, perched on a stone as a river flowed at her feet.  She tossed back her hair, green as the moss dotting the jagged ground.  “Minthe!”  Her voice was high and bright, a lotus in full bloom.  “Have you heard what Ouranos said to Mother Gaia?”

Haerin’s enigmatic and tranquil aura reflects Nyx, the primordial goddess of the night. Nyx’s quiet power and mystery align with Haerin’s presence, making her a symbol of serenity and hidden strength.

Ok so This is very based on my Aphrodite Danny and My one and true love ✨Misunderstandings✨ so I bring to you
Nyx goddess of the night As Ancient Of Space Danny
Like it makes so much sense why didn’t i think of this earlier??? Anyway on to my thoughts on this
I think he would look like a mix of these two pics
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And I would just like it if his eyes changed with the moon cycle like this { And at least someone having the misunderstanding that his eye is the moon cycle it’s not it just follows the cycle it would be hilarious }
Tumblr media
And for his lair it would most likely be the same as my Aphrodite Danny and these is pics

!!! Will add plot later like I said earlier I am very tired!!!

The Goddess Nyx and the Muse Urania
''Though my soul may set in darkness, it will rise in perfect light; I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night."
The Old Astronomer and His Pupil by Sarah Williams
Nyx, the Greek Goddess of primordial Night, dark mother of mysteries, dressed in stars, subduer of gods and men, who even mighty Zeus himself stood in awe of.
Urania, Goddess of astronomy, astrology and philosophy. Her gaze ever fixed on the the infinite universe. Muse to those who seek to divine the stars, expand the mind, and unravel the mysteries of the heavens.

Nyx's Veil 🌌🍹
Embrace the profound darkness and the mysterious allure of the goddess Nyx with the Nyx's Veil cocktail. Crafted as a devotional act to the primordial goddess of the night, this drink captures the essence of her in every sip. Each ingredient is chosen to honor her power and beauty, making this a perfect offering to prepare at midnight, the hour when Nyx reigns supreme.
Ingredients and Their Connection to Nyx:
1 1/2 oz Gin: Gin represents clarity amidst the darkness, a nod to Nyx's role as the mother of Aether (Brightness) and Hemera (Day). It symbolizes the balance between night and day, light and shadow.
1 oz Blackberry Liqueur: The deep, dark hue of blackberry liqueur reflects the inky blackness of the night sky that Nyx envelops the world in. The liqueur's rich, slightly sweet flavor mirrors the hidden depths and mysteries that she embodies.
1 oz Lemon Juice: Lemon juice adds a sharp, tart contrast to the drink, representing the sharpness and precision with which Nyx controls the night. It also honors her as a protector, with citrus symbolizing purification and protection from unseen forces.
1/2 oz Blue Curaçao: The vibrant blue of curaçao evokes the twilight sky as it fades into night. Its color and subtle bitterness are a tribute to the dusk that heralds Nyx's arrival each evening, as she cloaks the world in darkness.
Edible Black Glitter: The black glitter sprinkled on top is a reflection of the stars that Nyx scatters across the night sky. It’s a reminder of the cosmic beauty she creates, even in the deepest of shadows.
Candied Moon Slice: The candied moon slice represents the lunar cycle, which Nyx governs alongside her daughter, Selene, the goddess of the moon. It’s a sweet homage to her influence over the celestial bodies.
Instructions:
Mix: In a shaker, combine the gin, blackberry liqueur, and lemon juice with ice. Shake well, channeling your devotion to Nyx with each movement.
Strain: Strain the mixture into a glass, visualizing the dark liquid as the night sky forming under Nyx's command.
Layer: Carefully layer the blue curaçao on top, representing the transition from day to night as Nyx’s veil of darkness takes over.
Sprinkle: Add a sprinkle of edible black glitter to give the drink a touch of celestial magic, like stars twinkling in the night.
Garnish: Finish with a candied moon slice for a lunar tribute, acknowledging Nyx’s connection to the moon and the night.
Ritual: Prepare Nyx’s Veil at the stroke of midnight, the hour when Nyx’s power is at its peak. As you sip, reflect on the mysteries of the night and offer your thoughts to the goddess in gratitude. This act of devotion not only honors Nyx but also connects you to the timeless power she wields over the night.

The Night 🌚 NYX
✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
In shadows deep, where night does reign,
Goddess Nyx, a celestial bane.
Stars her jewels, the moon her guide,
In darkness, beauty shall abide.
A tapestry of dreams unfurls,
As Nyx, the cosmic fabric swirls.
Cloaked in mystery, veiled in grace,
She weaves the threads of time and space.
Silent whispers in the dark,
Her presence leaves a mystic mark.
Nocturnal queen, with power vast,
In Nyx's embrace, shadows cast.
A symphony of shadows, a ballet of the night,
Goddess Nyx, in celestial flight.
In cosmic dance, her essence weaves,
An ode to her, the night receives.
✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

(I'm actually looking for a poem, lyrics or a quote to be added to this piece. Something about the night, star gazing and exploration... Our love of the stars. If you have any recommendations, please do throw them my way! I'm hunting but I haven't found something just right yet.)
