The song (and the musical) slaps

Also hi I'm trying to post more than just Sambucky so um. Consider this a follower filter I guess?

My initial intention for this blog was to post art in general, so if you want Sambucky content only, thanks for sticking with me for a while! If you're still staying, thanks for being around still!

The Evermore Grimoire: Greek Mythology

Athena (Αθηνη) was the Olympian goddess of wisdom and war and the adored patroness of the city of Athens in Greek mythology. She often appeared in mythology as a champion of heroes such as Argos, Perseus and Hercules. These stories celebrated Athena’s kind regard for struggling mortals and often displayed her craftiness and ingenuity. For example, she advised Argos on how to construct the Argo, the ship that took Jason and the Argonauts to find the Golden Fleece. Athena also aided Perseus in his quest to slay Medusa, the Gorgon with hair made of serpents whose gaze turned onlookers to stone. As he set out on his quest, Athena appeared before him and gave him a bronze shield, polished to reflect the sight of Medusa so that Perseus would not have to look in her eyes. When he struck Medusa with a scythe gifted to him by Hermes (god of trade), Athena guided the swing to ensure it would sever her head. Hercules also benefited from Athena’s intervention. When he was charged with stealing the golden apples from Hera’s (queen of the gods) secret garden, which was overseen by the daughters of Atlas, Hercules offered to hold the sky while Atlas (bearer of the Heavens) beseeched his daughters to gather the apples. When the sky proved too heavy for Hercules, Athena took action and lifted the sky so that he would not be crushed under its weight.

SAGA

Asir Goddess of wisdom and knowledge. ( and by some, story telling and history)

Her home is Sökkvabäck, where clear sacred waters flow from her stream by one of Yggdrasills branches.

Its said the all-father visit her every day to take part in the water and her wisdom. From golden bowls they drink and discuss the meaning of it all and fate and paths ahead.

Saga is listed as both a valkyria and as a Asynja. Sadly few know her name even tho shes secound to Frigga amung the goddesses.
